Hi,
There is a lot of reasons why GMA might not want to expand upon GTC and
SOD. Making games is a matter of time, money, and interest.
The first thing to keep in mind is money. If a company hopes to sell a
game after they sell x copies of a game they will reach a point where
they will saturate the market and won't make any more money off it.
Since GMA offers all or most upgrades for free GMA isn't making any
money off continuing SOD or GTC any further.
Then, there is the matter of time. Every software developer needs to
decide how he/she is going to spend their time. Are they going to spend
x hours on an all new revolutionary game they can sell, or they going to
spend it making upgrades for a game that has already sold as many copies
as they can sell. It is smarter to make the new game from that point of
view.
Finally, you have to consider the developers personal interests here.
Perhaps David Greenwood feels GTC and Shades of Doom are complete
products now. In that case he would have little to know interest in
expanding or continuing development on either game since he thinks of
them as finished products.
Cheers.
