Commander Keen Dreams IndieGoGo Fund  "Scam"

User is offline   Lunick 

#1

I've been meaning to post about this for a while but it has had me concerned for a bit but I am pretty sure it is 99% illegitimate now.

SCAM

https://www.indiegog...gally/x/7704202 There is an IndieGoGo fund to buy the Commander Keen Dreams IP directly from Flat Rock Software.

He has other illegal ports/games floating around including:
Strife: https://itunes.apple...430142043?mt=12 http://www.amazon.co...duct/B00FXG4T26
Shadow Warrior: http://www.amazon.co...duct/B00IA4ZG34

https://www.indiegog...gally/x/7704202 There is an IndieGoGo fund to buy the Commander Keen Dreams IP directly from Flat Rock Software. I've thrown $20 at it and a member from PCKF has chucked $1000 at it very generously and I'm basically just spreading the word ^_^

Dude, Javier M. Chavez is a scammer, he illegally released Strife to iOS and Mac, also released multiple open source games without publishing sources.

Really? When the project started there was actually no name there but that must have been added within the last 24/48 hours...

Thanks for the heads up man! I was wondering why the goal was so cheap for an entire IP - I could just buy it myself so this seemed really suspicious. Doesn't "Super Fighter Team" own the rights to Keen Dreams anyway?

It is selling for $1500, I have been in contact with Flat Rock Software about that. Super Fighter Team just did a port for Flat Rock.

Now that's crazy. But still, that dude doesn't deserve any money at all and he might just lie about buying it judging from his bad reputation. He must be stopped!!!

Someone needs to tell the guy that donated 1,000 to the Keen Dreams fund about what a scumbag Chavez is and why he shouldn't be trusted with selling any games.

He's on the PCKF forums and has no doubt seen my post there, poor guy ^_^

My question is... If that guy on the PCKF has so much money why doesn't he just buy the rights to Keen Dreams himself?

You should PM him and to make sure he knows he's sending money to a chronic scammer and thief. That's what I would do, because Chavez deserves jack-shit.

Chavez set the company as flexible "Flexible Funding" company – he will receive money even if company will not reach the goal...

The less money he has, the better it is.

Judging by his other tweets, he comes off as a sad, angry man on top of being a scammer :)

He has to cancel the campaign first, IndieGoGo has a no refund policy and the only person who can refund is the Javier guy. I haven't gotten my $20 back yet.

Omg THIS guy! I have literally got 63 emails from him asking me to make Android ports of Strife and other games so he could illegally sell them and he could "make all the $$$" (unfortunately I replied to some of them so he would not go away)
He called me a a fucking asshole for not replying to some of his messages, one of the most obnoxious people I have ever met on the internet. I am not surprised he has other scams on the go, hope you can get your cash back!

Ugh. When you're a dev that's the type of crap you gotta face. I especially like these type of mail I get very often;

The funniest shit that happened was after one of my apps was features on MSNBC, CTV, RT, CNN, Fox News, etc. and I got one of those mails going "Your app needs to reach more people. Please buy advertisement from us."... I replied "Are you stupid?" and sent along links where that particular app was featured. And pics like this; Attached Image: snow.png I received no reply. ^_^
