Talk:God of Thunder (video game)

Untitled

Even though it's a good article, I think it should be re-written to be less like a walk through. It seems very walk through like in my opinion. Gohst 09:31, 5 February 2006 (UTC)

Reorganizing page names

Suggesting creating a new page "God of Thunder (disambiguation)" and moving this page into "God of Thunder (game)". Default page for "God of Thunder" should be "List of thunder gods", possibly renamed as "God of Thunder". --Drieakko 10:35, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

Doing the move now. --Drieakko 15:47, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

Mistakes

This game is not made by Adept Software. It was distributed by Impulse Software just like Jetpack and Squarez Deluxe. When Impulse Software disappeared, the author of Jetpack and Squarez Deluxe made his own website called Adept Software to release his old games on. I e-mailed the author telling him I liked his games as well as some other Impulse Software games, and asked if he can host them too. He complied and added God of Thunder to his site, but he did not make it. 89.139.37.54 07:18, 5 July 2007 (UTC)

Who's the author then? — Kieff | Talk 10:43, 5 July 2007 (UTC)

Copyright on startup says CSE Games with portions copyright by Argo Games, I'm not sure who either is. But it was released under Impulse Software like Jetpack, and also distributed on the Software Creations BBS. It was made by Ron Davis and other guys from Impulse. The only thing Adam Pedersen who is Adept Software did on this game was help with level design, and later distribute it on his website. 89.139.29.187 04:17, 10 July 2007 (UTC)

Mythology

The last paragraph says that the game has references to the Marvel Comics book character Thor. This may be true, but many of these references may also be to the norse mythology. The article does not mention that Thor, Odin, Loki ans Mjolnir among others are originaly from the mythology, which may get one to think that the persons are entirely based on the comics and the game developers fantasy.Trebos (talk) 01:00, 14 January 2011 (UTC)

Source code was not released by Ron Davis

The article states "On March 27, 2020, Ron Davis released the source code, music and sound effects as public domain software on SourceForge" and links to the SourceForge page. On the SourceForge page it states that Ron Davis "passed away in 2011", and that it had been released by his son. The Elysian Vector Fields (talk) 05:23, 8 May 2021 (UTC)

Ignore this, I just realised his father created the music and is named "Roy Davis". The Elysian Vector Fields (talk) 05:31, 8 May 2021 (UTC)
