Jeff Tunnell gets Dynamix IPs (Split from New Acquisitions)

My middle school's computer lab had this game installed on all the computers, and I spent a lot of time playing it when I'd finished whatever assignments I had to do there. It's great to finally have a copy of my own after more than ten years.

And to think you can' get The Incredible Machine Mega Pack on gog.com for only $9.99 :D

...and that's not the only thing he's been acquiring. The EarthSiege/Tribes series have been acquired by Garagegames (founded by Jeff) aswell some time ago.

That is the best hope for these classics. Unfortunately, Ken and Roberta don't seem to have much interest in something like this. It would be wonderful if the original creators managed to get their "children" back. If Al to got LSL, Jane GK, the Coles QfG, etc. Ah well... we can only dream.

I suppose that'd explain games like Fallen Empire: Legions, Lore: Aftermath and Ace of Aces. When I first saw those three games (without knowing Jeff Tunnell had anything to do with it) the first thing I thought was: "Those games look a lot like Tribes, Starsiege and Red Baron." :P

David Kaemmer, creator of the Nascar series and other racing games, is also doing an awesome job. i-Racing, the racing simulation company he founded after Papyrus was taken down in 2003, now has the Nascar license, and David is also the owner of the Nascar 2003 game engine.

Anyway, we're getting off the thread topic. Collector, could you branch this of in a new thread?
