I had been wondering (in
this post see pushback
here) whether the Jungle Wars instance at designer Tensquare Games site was being maintained.
The answer is no.
Today, I noticed a German player (Beast) telling another (Jety) about the Totem 11 glitch.
In another post (not shown) a separate player calls out the magic hut glitch caused by buying and placing the fifth hut.
This triggers some ugly talk.
It begins with what may be speculation.
Inselmann weighs in to say that neither the developers nor programmers can make improvements to the program.
The entire game is patched together with bits of code taken from other programs.
(Note: My translation is not literal- RC)
The context, subroutines, and parameters are unknown to these programmers.
Neither the company nor the programmers have sufficient knowledge to make the changes needed.
Aside from this, nobody should be spending money on the beta version of a game.
He concludes by saying ...
The whole thing was devised by amateurs to make a little money.
Jety replies in anger that he does not agree that these are amateurs but rather "organized, professional and competent criminals" who are lining their pockets.
The conversation goes downhill from there. Antoschoka04 denounces Jungle Wars as a great game for those who have become complete idiots.
He calls it a "Polack game" in which you attack and cannot be attacked.
He finishes with an insult for Tensquare: "How stupid and petty does one have to be, you Polack swine?"

Comment: For myself, I do not know programming but I cannot believe something this elaborate could have been thrown together with bits of borrowed code.
Taking money for a broken game is dubious. Either they are funding new development on other games or (let's hope) collecting to fix this one.
