Developer Olav Sørensen/8bitbubsy received the original sources of FT2 and continued to work on them, releasing multiple bug fixed versions of it, currently at version 2.13. As he expressed, he isn't allowed to publish the original source code, written in Borland Pascal 7 and Assembler, but is allowed to publish fixed versions of it.<ref>{{Cite web |title=16-bits.org - home of 8bitbubsy |url=https://16-bits.org/other.php |access-date=2025-04-23 |website=16-bits.org}}</ref>
