Interview:Lars Norpchen

The game engine code was mostly completed, but the artwork never materialized due to Punk's inability to hire qualified artists. The project was cancelled "without cause" as the relationship between Punk and RazorSoft unraveled, and Punk's "management" misled RazorSoft about the state of the project's progress. (Punk withheld delivery of milestones to RazorSoft, and RazorSoft was very surprised to find they had to pay me for three outstanding milestones that I'd submitted to Punk and they'd never received.) I was very relieved when it was cancelled, and I was no longer obligated to appear daily at the poisonous office environment.

It is interesting that Razorsoft thought my conversation with them was the same as with jeff.. When I was left out, the only thing razorsoft paid for and got was basically a nothing burger.. Jeff was selling nothing burgers to everyone. He thought since he would hire people I had used, they would easily get up to speed and copy my ideas and designs. And although he hired former talents from IDG, no one could offer anything in the time frames required as some of the main things that razorsoft thought they were paying for were absent. Basically Jeff kept scamming nothing burgers until he got some of his workers to produce goods he sold and got lucky because others had some great ideas and he sat around ordering people around. He made the big bucks and left others out in the lurch holding the bag.

You would think honors being bestowed on this guy in the many articles like he was a great visionary.. All he did was sat around and talked big. Anyone who dealt with him over an extended period found out he was a gas bag of a nothing burger. And he basically did what all the other scammers did, paid 10% and pocketed the 90% while doing none of the work he took credit for.
