A Hyper Appeal

Not bought Hyper Button yet? Well I have some good news for you.

For any copy of Hyper Button sold this Friday (21 January), I'll donate all the royalties I get from that copy to the Queensland Government's Flood Relief Appeal. Every dollar I make on Friday will be given.

Even if you have bought it, or don't want to buy it (I hate you), you can still help by donating some money, even if you don't live in Australia, by going here.

You can download the trial of Hyper Button here, but you must wait until Friday the 21st to purchase it, if you want your money to go to the Appeal.

If you've been affected by the floods, my best wishes goes out to you.
