Shortly after the internet was set ablaze by the release of Pokémon Uranium - an unofficial, mostly original PC take on the series - download links were taken offline as quickly as they became available with Nintendo likely at the helm dishing out DMCA takedown notices and threats of copyright infringement.
But that didn't stop the brave developers from pledging support for the title for those already playing. That, however, it now no longer the case, as the team has indefinitely halted development on the game with no clear reason backing up the decision.
With fans taking to Twitter to vent their frustrations at what they assume to be some Nintendo interjection, the thread has turned into more of a celebration of the team's journey with fanart posts of their home-grown 'pocket monsters' being thrown around as a gesture of goodwill.
For a short time, PC users had their own answer to a formula Nintendo won the hearts of millions with 2 decades ago. The best we got was about 2 weeks.
