Glider PRO Flies Free(ware) In Wake Of C&G Demise
Glider PRO Flies Free(ware) In Wake Of C&G Demise
by , 10:00 AM EDT, August 1st, 2003
After Casady & Greene Inc. went bankrupt and closed its doors about a month ago, the fate of the classic Glider PRO game has been in question. No more, as the original author of the game has released Glider PRO and the older Glider 4.0 as freeware. From John Calhoun, the author:
Welcome. Since Casady & Greene Inc. went bankrupt, the rights to the game Glider have reverted to me, the author. To that end, Glider PRO and Glider 4.0 are now free and I am giving them away for free download on this web page. Casady and Greene were a wonderful company and I am sorry to see them pass into Macintosh history.
Glider PRO for OS X, Glider PRO for OS 9, Glider 4.0 for System 6 & 7, Glider 4.0 for Windows, and two sets of custom houses are available as free downloads from John Calhoun's Web site. Thanks to MacSlash for pointing this out.
The Mac Observer Spin:
Glider is surely one of the all-time great software titles for the Mac. We are still mourning the passing of Casady & Greene, and this certainly was a classy move by John Calhoun. On behalf of future Glider users everywhere, we offer Mr. Calhoun a big Mac Observer Salute!Observer Comments
