Yeah, I don't think it will ever come to us not having any developers
developing accessible audio games simply because there a lot of

for free, and as a result don't have to put up with nearly the crap

Hi Brandon,
Definitely. It is for that very reason Bavisoft is no longer around.
Their website is history, and they were forced to shut down because of
their inability to be contacted. So I highly doubt we will ever hear

on his or her key generator so naturally they want to keep that pretty
