Hi Lori, I have to disagree with you. Draconis is still maintaining those games, and I do know Josh has plans to port a number of those games to Mac OS. Considering there really aren't any accessible games like DynaMan, Aliens in the Outback, and ESP Pinball Extreme for Mac that is a totally new market for Draconis to break into. Plus for Windows users the new versions will be written in C++ which means improved speed, Windows 7 compatibility, and greater stability as they'll be designed for a modern operating system. We won't have to fool with installing the Visual Basic 6 runtime etc. And while I'm thinking about it just because a game is old doesn't make itbad. All of those original ESP titles were good games for their time. They aren't necessarily what I would have written myself, but I still think they are fairly decent games and are worth paying for.
