“Mother!” Suntop embraces Leetah after having been away for a whole turn of the seasons, “My eyes see with joy! My hands touch with joy!”
“My hands also touch with joy!” Leetah holds her little son out at arn’s length, “My eyes, too, see with joy! How tall you’ve become! Where has my little Suntop gone to be replaced by this beautiful boy? Soon I won’t be able to call you or your sister cubling anymore...”
“We’ll always be your Cublings, Mother,” Suntop grinned, “You know that!”

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.
