Hi Ben,
When I released Acefire, there was a huge flame war about the price. It was
all to do with the fact that I was from the UK, most of this community is
from the US, and getting the price on a reasonable balance was a very
complicated process. It all ended up in a very unhappy community.
Hi Oriol,
This one was easy to fix. I have now made the one player superior internally
so that they check the winning condition for both, and informs the other
player about who won. This prevents race conditions like what you describe.

Hi Hayden,
Jaws was programmed in C++. As for Windows, it depends what you mean. The
small utilities were programmed in C++, whereas the core of the system
itself will most likely have been programmed in Assembly.
