I aggree with you.
to their cred bavisoft were one of the first and made simple games.
However although I only heard from rumour they didn't last long, I
heard rumours about order delays and support issues.
THe last thing anyone heard was about chillingham2 comming whenever
then nothing.
Having no demos is bad enough well playable demos but not updating in
the face of new tech is just poor judgement, I mean everyone else is,
has or is abbout to,
then keeping up with the gamer trends, ie random generation of
things custom levels, 3d play and a couple things would be nice.
I mean this is not windows 95 anymore.
its truth also.
THis is not a flame.
And now they are gone for who knows how long.
When their website was hacked my first thought was, well its not like
it really matters because it doesn't well anymore.

Personally if it were me I'd keep going with my game creating and to
heck with what people say! If there's more people who love the
games than don't then you've got something worth fighting for, but
to just completely vanish is quite disappointing, especially to new
gamers who don't know the score, it reflects badly on the company if
you just exit quickly without a reason.

Guys,
IMHO, it is precisely this sort of critical attitude that causes
game developers to feel disheartened and want to stop developing
games. It is precisely those sorts of remarks and comments that put
me off writing games for a while after the Acefire performance.
If I remember rightly there was a time when the owner of Bavisoft
himself was part of the list, and he was getting flamed pretty
badly. Yes that was a while ago, but it still happened, and now it
looks like he's disappeared off the face of the earth, and they're
still being flamed.
It was an attempt at marketing, and I believe a very good one.
Considering Grizzly Gulch and Chillingham were their very first
games, I think they were awesome. The only thing I'm slightly
disappointed about is I don't think we'll ever see the front cover
of Chillingham II, let alone an audio trailer.
They must have had a very good reason for not communicating any
more. Things happen in people's lives that consumers don't seem to
think can happen to businessmen. And although I don't personally
know this Jeff Gibbons, I'm sure all he had at heart were good intentions.
Just my opinion on the matter.
Regards,
Damien.

They are seriously irresponsible idiots. Bavisoft, if you are just
stupid dunderheads, that's what you get! Seriously, their games
are not worth it. Who would want to buy grizzly gulch and perchous
it in stead of a demo? Actually I've thought that Bavisoft are
just freaking idiots and I wouldn't be surprised if their servers
get hacked, or if their games are hacked because they are just
brainless with no brains. Lol. Actually Hey, I am the owner of
bavisoft. I don't get any games, its a big surprise. Because are
you brainless? Your being accusatory! Booooooooooo! I think they
should be called babysoft.

I havn't touched their site for ages.
the last time I touched it it was last year.
nothing has been released, nothing has been communicated.
their games exist if you know where to get them.
If they are hacked and they probably are then it serves them right.
They didn't really do to much for us and now they get it.
Oh well.
I wouldn't even bother going back.
No communications = no existance at all as far as I care.

Hi all
I have been following numerous threads on this list about
bavisoft and I am
fully aware that they are not in touch with the blind community.
But I decided to check out their website this afternoon just to see how
their website looks like.
And I got a warning telling me the website www.bavisoft.com contains
malware. I refrained from visiting the website for now.Is this really the
case?
I got to a google page that witnessed that they found malware on
bavisoft on
22 november.
Do I need to take this warning seriously or can I ignore the warning?
Have anybody been on bavisoft's website lately?
If their site really contains malware, do you think that its
their intention
to put malware on their site?
This google page said that in some cases, although the
people owning the
website, did not intend to put malware on their site, other people may put
malware on the site.
I haven't heard any wicked things about bavisoft, only that they
do not get
back to their customers.
I just thought of letting everybody know of this.
Happy gaming.
