David : We are probably be talking about different things. I am talking about my Quarters game I wrote several years ago -- you can play it here: http://sperling.com/quarters/ You see, in December 1999, I wrote a Macintosh freeware application that did the same thing as shown above. I placed a link on my web-site to download the application, namely: http://sperling.com/freeware.php I then contacted several shareware sites online and gave them the link for them to use/advertise. In February of 2000, Mac World ran an article and mentioned my Quarters game. Several other magazines followed with similar articles. As a result, my site experienced thousands of downloads and many of the shareware sites I shared my link with reported similar activity. Over the following decade, I received lot's of paying request for the secret to the game. However, what I did was pretty simple -- there was nothing outstanding. There was no video, nor branding, it was just an interesting experience *for me*. Cheers, tedd -- ------- http://sperling.com/
