It appears http://www.anykeysoft.net/ has been replaced by a search engine. For those who are not familiar, anykeysoft.net was the host of worms breakout 1 & 2, and king pong 1 & 2.

Does anyone know what happened to them?

Think it's ok to upload the files I have for those games somewhere?

What a pity! Worms Breakout 1 & 2 were the best Breakout clones I have played.
Yes, host the files.

I'll ask Brusi next time I catch him on MSN.

Rexy probably forgot to pay the bills or something. :p

worms breakout was NEVER hosted on anykeysoft.net, they they just linked out of site and can be found here:

According to Brusi, the team's too busy with other things, so the domain ended up expiring and being bought by someone else.

He said you can still get WB from WormsCC, though Plutonic beat me to it. Don't expect the website to be back anytime soon though.

I've thrown the king pong games in my web junk bin:

first of all, i'm glad to see that you've noticed that our site was closed...

what SupSuper said was right, Rexy was the owner of the domain and he disapeared for months, so when he didn't renew it, an automatic bot stole it from us (i checked every day, and in the minute it was avaliable, the bot bought it). we were very sad about it...

anyway, anyKeySoft is not the "host" of worms breakout and king pong... we were a group of game creators, and we created the games.
we are still creating games, but we've just finished high school, so we actually don't have so much free time now... so anykeysoft actually don't really exist anymore, althought there is a new version of WBO2 waiting to be released... and we were very close to create "king pong 2 online"....

i hope we'll release more games in the future, i don't think we'll do it "as anykeysoft".... but who knows ;)
