After that I began working on removing the copyright infringing elements and implementing community feedback. I am now finally releasing an extended version on steam while keeping the base game free and updated.

I know it's a lot of overhead but its java.

You can just toss the "jre" directory if you want to use your own JRE.

It should work in theory but as far as I know it nobody got it to run yet.
