I'm not sure if this is even allowed by the license:

 UNREGISTERED COPY VERSIONS OF SOLDAT.
Provided that you verify that you are distributing the
Shareware Version you are hereby licensed to:
a. make as many copies of the Shareware version of this software
 and documentation as you wish
b. give exact copies of the original Shareware version to anyone
c. distribute the Shareware version of the software and
 documentation in its unmodified form via electronic means
(e-mail, web page, diskette, CD including magazine Cover CDs)
...

Maybe we should just release a portable version as people often forget to "backup" their extracted folders.

Maybe we should just release a portable version as people often forget to "backup" their extracted folders.
If it's not a huge problem - it would definitely be great to have a .zip version of the game instead of an installer. Honestly, I don't see much point in an installer other than that it's more "professional and user-friendly", but for more experienced users it should be much easier to manage a portable version.

I think it's likely that the installer exe can be unpacked by any of the freeware .exe/.cab extrators (which themselves might not require an install), and having someone go that route when they need a zip is a better option.
