MEGA? Have kids these days not heard of torrent

Torrents don't work well in most of the world due to asymmetric upload/download speeds.

Torrents handle most people leaching if at least a handful of people are seeding. Westerners with fat upload pipes can support everybody else.

At a bit less than 5GB, this is the perfect candidate for a torrent. Small enough to reasonably seed to a high ratio, while so large that it apparently puts me over mega's transfer quota for my IP..

I would have expected a flurry of activity given the cult popularity of this game. It was leaked on 1st June according to github. Does anyone know if there has been anyone working on this trying to make it run on modern computers? Very fascinating!
