I'm sad to hear this myself, i've had lots of fun playing troopanum, pipe, hunter etc. One thing I do wonder however is how people will get the games and unlock codes in the future if blind software is closing down, since it'd be dire if future people coming to audiogmaes.net couldnt' play

Hi Pitermach. I agree completely. doing this as a community effort would be a great thing indeed, though to be honest I'm sorry justin is trying to straight out prophit on this and isn't doing what dan zingaro did when he quit developement and simply releasing the stuff as abandonware for

Also, some of those games and programs, such as Crazy Darts, Sonic Match, Funk in the Trunk, and Sweet midi were free to begin with. I feel that it's a definite misnomer for them to be placed in the bundle. Unless I misread something, I believe the blog post said something about how those programs

I agree as well. As someone who purchased copies of a couple of those games, I don't like the fact that you have to buy the whole package. I wish there was a system in place where you could just check the boxes of the games and programs you wanted, and pay accordingly. On 4/17/13, Thomas Ward

Hi. It is very sad to see blindsoftware closing down. I used to play these games, and it is very shocking to see it closing down. I'd like to see the games made abandonware, like some of the abandonware game, and be able to have a keygen to unlock them just like Self Distruct, and Tarzan

Hi Dark, You know, that is one of the reasons I'm reluctant to squeeze the $75 out of my bank account to get this pack of games and software. I would be paying that money, money I don't really have to spend right now, on games that will never be upgraded and supported after I pay for them. That

HI Shaun and all; This is my point for my earlier question this week about how much people would be willing to pay for games. If we as a community want games we need to make it worth someone's time developing them. We need to offer a reason for people to stay with this. People need to survive

Hi Cara, I'm not sure I agree with your assessment. In theory, it sounds nice, but what I have noticed over the years, and this is coming from a casual audio game player, not a developer, is that making audio games is a pretty thankless job. Because of the smaller market, people tend to want more
