_install_dir is expanded within the PKGBUILD. The base path (up to $pkgname) should stay as a string with variables; encapsulate the value in single quotes '...'.

I worked with Todd at a company in the 90's. I'm sure he'd be cool with it. Even then he regarded it fondly almost like a student project. Hit him up in an email, you might be surprised at how into it he's be to see Loderunner live on in the Arch community. He's an awesome guy.

Improvement Suggestion: Make use of the XDG Base Directories.

Concretely this basically means install to "${XDG_DATA_HOME}/loderunner" instead of "~/.loderunner".
Replacing occurrences of "$HOME/.$pkgname" with "${XDG_DATA_HOME:-${HOME}/.local/share}/${pkgname}" should do it.

arch has to be an array:

arch=("any")

Website and download are provided by Todd Daggert, the Lead Programmer of the game, so I would call that "official abandonware". Leave a comment, if you think there still is a license problem.
