Hi Thomas, To make you aware we haven't exactly lost PBGames, but he's changed his programming platform and he has changed the name to PBSoundscape. Even though games haven't come out under this new name yet, I know he is making them, as I am testing a performance test one out for him now. Thanks. Regards, Damien
