    I have been asked if I would be porting SPD from Steam?

    Absolutely, no. I obtained a copy and as I suspected, it is not worth the effort. Steam gets many of its games from software pirate, GOG. GOG tries to put on a legitimate front but are just another Abandonware site. Having ripped apart several of GOG’s so-called DOS game ports I discovered that they were really just taking games from other Abandonware sites (including the cracks and team NFO). They then put the game into a DOSbox and put it all into a wrapper with all of GOG’s garbage. They berate Abandonware sites and get them shut down, and then turn around and sell the games! Worse, Steam then puts it into another wrapper to push their own garbage. What you end up with is a game 500% larger than it was and no different than you can download from Abandonware sites, that is, if GOG hasn’t taken over. I tore apart the SPD and it is nothing more than the desktop JAVA version bundled with a JVM and a load of unnecessary Steam and GOG code. Therefore, there is no need to port it.
