Women, this one's for you all. This is like the female version of blue balls. It can happen in any of the ways it can to man, just to one of you fine ladies. Ranging anywhere from being walked in on during masturbation to a guy cumming way too early and leaving you wet and horny.
"Oh my God! Brent left me hung out to dry last night, he finished in like 30 seconds and then just up and left!"

abandonware 

n. software that is no longer sold or supported by the original publisher / developer, often found as free downloads on the internet because it cannot be obtained elsewhere. Not legal, but often seen as morally acceptable because the company that made it is no longer selling the title, nor releasing it as freeware, therefore abandonware is "keeping the game alive", so to speak.
Doom II is not abandonware because id still sells it, while The Incredible Machine is not sold, therefore is abandonware.
