<I>"Why are the textbooks so expensive?"</I>

Because Demonoid is still down, and I can no longer download pirated copies?

As ICJ said in another thread "above the fold" on the forums here, the rest of us would love to see some more ACK games finished this year. The question is, how can we make this happen?

For my part, if anybody has a Google blogspot development blog, I will gladly follow you and be there to coax more updates. If you have some other kind of blog, I will gladly add you to my RSS reader.

Hugonauts and ACKers alike, let's make 2013 the year of the Finished Product!

That was really cool. And thanks for putting a link to the forum, Josh. That is much appreciated.

Anyone coming here from the CRPG Addict: [i]Welcome![/i] Please let me know if I can make your stay here any better.

I saw that, too, and wanted to mention it here. To be honest, until I read that post, I was unaware that ACK was capable of making such nice-looking games.

Keep up the good work, folks.

I hope anyone interested in CRPGs is already following the [url=http://crpgaddict.blogspot.com/]CRPGAddict blog[/url] (as its tagline says, "One man blogs his adventures through every PC role-playing game ever released"), but the CRPGAddict just recently finished Ultima V and decided to try out Chris's Ultima parody made with ACK!

Hopefully this might bring some new people to ACK. :)
