Glaring obmission on Krome's history page

  • In my first and previous post in this game dev log entry, I had written that I wanted to do a game which was a collection of simple retro games. Unity released a new major release (2019.3) while I was putting the initial project together, and I…

  • Well, I'm making a game . I'm spending the next few weeks on making a small game to showcase the gamedev log feature on tsumea where any member can create a game entry and other members can post journal posts with art, music or just development…

  • Just a test #2. Still working on the new section.

  • So, I got a Commodore 64 when I was in the 4th grade. It came bundled with a Rolf Harris picture building program on casette tape which never loaded properly but from what I could tell by its box cover, you could build pictures from a selection…

  • Yes, the site looks very different and I've had to prematurely switch to this new theme that I'm working on for a few reasons, the main one is that changing certain aspects of the site to fit the new theme will affect how the old one looks for…

To play devils advocate, it's one of those "morally unfair" things that are quite common in this industry; although on a personal level it's unfair to not give recognition and credit to John Passfield as a major contributor to kromes founding and history, looking at it from a business perspective, it's also quite an obvious and logical thing to want to omit. So in that regard it's a sound choice, and ultimately it's the company owners own history to write how they want it presented.

In terms of the "morally unfair" topic, it's similar to giving an outsourcing company that did 9/10th's of your art requirement no credit, or a 1 line mention under "additional art". Unfair to the individual, but unfortunately sound from the business perspective.
