Hi John,

No need. Just go to Daniel Zingaro's website and download them.

While I won't prevent you from uploading and sharing the files I will
say it would be further ahead if you just give out the actual websites
where said games can be found so people can bookmark them for future
reference rather than relying on Sendspace, Dropbox, or some other
method which is only temporary.

Hi Dark and all,

Daniel Zingaro's games such as Chainlink, and Search Party can be
found on Daniel Zingaro's personal website
http://www.danielzingaro.com
where they have been for the last several years. So if you don't know
about Daniel Zingaro's site I'd suggest updating the Audiogames.net
database to reflect that as it is the official site where all of the
old DanZ Games can be downloaded from.

Fortunately, at this point the audiogames archive is far enough along that 
I'd be able to upload any games directly to that, and give out download 
links.
Its very much my intent to make the site permanent, so  - barring developers 
directly requesting the removal of their titles - I don't see the links 
breaking any time in the near future.
All this said, I appear to have lost the original message, so if I haven't 
already sent out download links, I've no clue which games to be uploading.

Re: [Audyssey] free windows based word games

Hi Tom.

I'll check the database, I thought it did have links to dan's page but 
wasn't sure.
I do agree with you about temporary hosting though, it's much better if the 
hosting is perminant than just a community of random people handing around 
files as and when requested, sinse otherwise it makes it very hard for 
newbies to find things.


I did think the audiogames.net database had the url to danZ's page with  his 
games, I'll check to make sure though. The only reason I didn't give it out 
originally is I'd already provided a few links to sites like kitchinsinc and 
so didn't want too crowded a response, plus I didn't have DanZ's page in my 
favourites so would've had to go onto audiogames.net and look it up for 
myself and I'm a lazy person :D.


All the best,

Dark.

Hi John,

Glad to hear of your progress with the audio games archive. That said,
I sincerely hope it does not become a replacement for the developer's
own sites as those are usually preferable in a lot of cases than
downloading the games from a third-party site. However, I can
understand your desire to use this method instead of advertising a
developer's own site since you have put a lot of work into your game
archive.
