Hi Nicol, Both of the sounds in question can freely be obtained off of the internet. Neither Liam or Draconis has an exclusive copyright on them since neither company are the original creators of the sounds. They are just free sound effects obtained from the web. As it happens Liam isn't the only one who has used sounds from Monkey Business. As part of my deal with James North in taking over Alchemy Game Studios I recieved a cd with James North's entire sound effects library. when I initially created Montezuma's Revenge I used quite a lot of sounds from Monkey Business. the stone doors, lava pits, ledge sounds, etc come strait out of Monkey Business. Over time I replaced several sounds I found on the internet that were better, but the updated side-scroller I am working on still does use some of those sounds. Hth.
