That being the case, I have tried repeatedly to reach Hexdump with
no success. They were the creators of Bricks2 (a 'breakout' style of
game with really incredible animation and sound) and HexPaint. I
purchased both of them. Neither of them required a reg code. Question
now is, do we post them on someplace like unna (with disclaimers of
course) or do people contact me privately? If they were around, I'd
say BUY BUY BUY! but they aren't so...
I just tried to contact Concept Kitchen about Sticky Newts - the reply?
We no longer have that product, sorry.
