I believe everyone here, and within the Atari community, can be sure I am the programmer for Tempest Xtreme and Venture, and other games. They seen my posts for years about games, and would not doubt my programming skills that put those games together. That is very well established.
I avoided discussing Sal because of the controversial nature of the subject, but since it has been bought up repeatedly attempting to accuse me of harassing him.
It is interesting, one can claim that he does not know why Sal got the boot from Lance around March 2015, especially when they were involved with the reason. If Albert has any concerns about my claim that Sal pestering Lance about selling stuff to Albert, then Albert should send Lance an email to get his side of the story. After the Retro Portland Game Expo's back in 2012, Sal admitted to me that he met Albert at the Expo, and I also have witness reports to them talking to each other. Sal the next day after the expo, started asking Lance to sale parts to Albert.
When we worked together on Tempest Xtreme, Sal had people beta testing the game for us, long before Lance decided to have people under non-disclosure. It helped me get the game working correctly. When we moved on to Venture, and I wanted beta testers involved, Sal got real nasty with me, and with people I was emailing, and wanted to handle all the beta testing himself. When bugs were reported on AtariAge, I got upset about it, and did send some ROMS to trusties, that resulted in Sal flipping out, and asked Lance to terminate me from the partnership. But as everyone knows, I was the one providing Lance with game programs and what side Lance will take. I already had several more games in the works that Sal wanted to put a stop to. When that did not happen, things went further south with Sal.
The last straw was when it was discovered Sal passed along source code and ROMS. Something happened that made Sal come running to Lance, asking for a lawyer. So Lance asked what happened. Lance must have been upset, and asked Sal to pay back owed debt. Sal passed along copies of game ROMS and Source code to people he knows from AtariAge forum, who he showed them to. Some of them must have threatened him to pass along pirated copies, and make a claim that I was the one who stolen the source code for these games from someone else. Since Sal could not pay, Sal was requested to sign Atlantis Games Group over to Lance, and will no longer receive royalty payments. I was not told immediately what happened, only told that Sal was in poor health and could not continue working with us, and told not to write to Sal.
At this time, I am not going get into the phone conversations I had with Sal in 2017. If Albert has concerns about what I posted so far, he may contact Video61.
