Another message... I noticed slideroll is online at neurofuzzy.net/free-slidesh.... Could you maybe roll down the PHP version neurofuzzy.net/php/info.php to PHP 5 and add Ruffle so it lives? The .slideroll.com domain now redirects to a scam website.

Also, sorry if this feels pressurizing but I believe the Sploder Arcade Creator should technically be able to run on HTML5 due to it being written in Haxe.. I might be wrong. If you'd upload the sources, the community could take over development and hosting and starting biting off parts for HTML5.

I attempted a Zanpo builder recreation in JavaScript and it seems to be doing well... Still need to reverse engineer everything to make it 1:1. The lack of videos and source code does not help 😔 so having sources is very important for this to succeed.

Please do... I'll be waiting! I have a sploder revival up at sploder.net (github.com/Sploder-Sapt...) (sorry, stole your domain). You can use it for sploder.com too and make it an app-only site using electron! It'd also be cool if we could have the original Sploder PHP+AS sources.

Thanks!

Hey @talicats.bsky.social, I know this is extremely random, but do you have the original computer you played zanpo on? I need a few assets that are completely lost to time, I'm making a zanpo reverse engineered backend.

If you do have it, do not power it on and please contact!

Hey Geoff, sorry for the spam! I was working on the zanpo reverse engineering and realized a bunch of SWF files are missing! It'd be appreciated if you could provide builder.swf, directory.swf (everything, including the PHP backend would be a better!)

Just so you know, Ruffle runs Zanpo perfectly.

Found a flyhack.. Pressing SHIFT+SPACE results in you hopping mid-air..

Just checked the codebase and seems like it's a Zanpo-Sploder 3d engine mashup?! I'd genuinely be amazed if we'd get the now lost-to-time 3d creator (whatever was made)

Thanks for your work, though! We appreciate ya!

Hey Geoff! It's nice to see you coming back to old projects! I have a work-in-progress reverse-engineered Zanpo API server written in PHP 8.4 and could send it over to you if needed!

PS: Is there an official Sploder remake coming soon?

Hey geoff! Nice to see you come back to sploder again! I'd be highly grateful if you'd consider my time (actually huge request): Open source the entirety of sploder, including the PHP backend. I'd also appreciate this as it'd help reduce time in this project: github.com/Sploder-Sapt...

Are you Geoff Gaudreault from Sploder?
