Request: Strange Flavour Games (Bushfire, Airburst (Xtreme), Toysight Gold)

Can someone upload the old Carbon-based games from the developer "Strange Flavour" to Macintosh Garden ?
They have gone to Xbox 360 and iOS only development and have removed all download links to their Macintosh games, they are abandonware now.

The last versions of the games were:
Bushfire v1.11 (Link to former download page)
Airburst Classic v1.055 (Link to former download page)
Airburst Extreme v1.01 (Link to former download page)
Toysight Gold v1.1.2 (Link to former download page)

Please note that none of Strange Flavour's games are 'abandonware' and are still (C) Strange Flavour.

We reserve all rights to our games and will be doing more Mac games in future Wink

I think the OP wants to see the classic Mac OS download links active again.

Hello Aaron Fothergill !

Unfortuantely, I cannot find any trace of the 4 games (Bushfire v1.11, Airburst Classic v1.055, Airburst Extreme v1.01, Toysight Gold v1.1.2) on your website. They was created originally for Mac OS 9 and carbonized its later versions for Mac OS X 10.0 and 10.1. Could you please make these old versions downloadable again (e. g. in an historical archive section as other developers do ?) and/or send to the Macintosh Garden website a copy for archival purpose for the future. I would hate them to disappear forever.
Newer versions that can be played on Mac OS X only, Intel-only Mac OS X (10.6 and higher) or iOS only are nice to see, but we want the old versions that are playable on Mac OS 9 too. So if you could make them available again, it would a nice advertise for newer versions too !

Greetings.

EDIT:
Wrote an e-mail with above contact to user Zwilnik alias Aaron Fothergill, too. I am hoping for an positive answer from his side.

Most of the files archived here are still copyrighted, Smile
but Kitchen2010's words are true as well.
So please, yes, make the older versions available again.

I've recently come across Airburst Carbon 1.05. Is this what the OP wants?

I'm not sure, just reupload on your own host if you do.

OK, I created an entry for Airburst (Classic) here. Do you have the successor Airburst Extreme somewhere, too ?

OK, Bushfire v1.11 (Link) and Airburst Classic v1.055 (Link) were found and added to to the Macintosh Garden archive.

Airburst Extreme (Link) and ToySight Gold (Link) are not found yet. I have added the demo versions and the updaters for the full game to the last version.
If you have the full game of them, please feel free to add it to Macintosh Garden.
