I recently found this Facebook group, where a lot of old workers post neat stuff about the history of the company. There is some really interesting stuff there that I encourage any fans of the company to check out.

Sorry I never replied. That's very cool!

Also, a recent r/nostalgia post:

Not the best example (or particularly funny) of the popularity of a game as other HE videos have gotten more views, but this Spy Fox parody video made by videogamedunkey has gotten over 200,000 views since Feb. 10, 2013.

Well something like this was probably inevitable with Atari's bankruptcy claim but this article says the HE rights are going to be auctioned off in July. This isn't necessarily a bad thing, but I certainly felt it was worth sharing.

Oh I never caught this! Thanks for the input.
Joined the FB group, voted on wishlist, +1 and you definitely have my support.
Used to have a couple Putt Putt games, Fatty Bear and Spy Fox when I was in middle school.
Not ashamed to say I'd play em again now in my late 20s.
I'd buy these games on here 100% without a doubt!

I would buy these games and so would my friends and family. My full support!
I was browsing the Double Fine forums and saw this:

They did a playthrough of one of the Pajama Sam games.

Some votes and a bump.
Looks like this weekend's promo is made up of Atari Games, including the Total Annihilation games and Moonbase Commander.

Yeah, I suspect it's going to be even more difficult now to get the Humongous games here, but we'll see. Still a meaningful time to raise support, with the weekend promo.
Just bring 'em and we'll buy it!
Do you know if HE actually tried to publish their games here?
And... why does today's promo makes bringing HE games on GOG more difficult?

Atari has filed for bankruptcy and its assets are going on auction. HE is part of said assets.
For those still interested in this thread content, it appears that Tommo, Inc. got the rights to the Humongous games. http://www.gog.com/forum/general/atari_auctions/post13 Don't know for sure, of course. Once I do know for sure, I will try to contact them.
