About


Blufire Software is a small software group. We only make software for Macintosh computers, because we believe they are superior by far compared to Windows PCs. Blufire Software began in October 1998. It started when a person (whose name we are not going to release) fooled a group of Command & Conquer players, including me (the founder of Blufire), into believing that Westwood Studios was going to make a Macintosh-only Command & Conquer series game, called Tiberian Holocaust. That person said he had volunteered to work on it, and "recruited" a few "outsiders". After about a week, we found the truth, and decided: "Hey, let's just make our own software "company" and produce games ourselves!" That's the main story, but now we've grown in size and in the kinds of software we make.

Now, you may ask, "What's with the name?" Well, a thing I called "Blufire Technologies" began as a little idea of mine. It really didn't have to do with anything, I just liked the name. (This was about a year before the founding, 1997) When the question came about what we should name our "company", I dredged the name "Blufire" out of my memory. "BLUFIRE SOFTWARE!!" I exclaimed. "Yeah!" They replied. So... now we're here.

Our first game project was started by David Moxey, and it was an integral part to the beginning of Blufire. Thanks, Dave!


Blufire Today

Blufire Software prides itself on 3 core values: Macintosh-only software, quality, and price. We started as a Mac-only software group, and we're going to stay that way, because we believe the Macintosh platform is far superior in hardware and software, as well as operating system, to any other desktop machine out there. Quality: whether it's in code or interface and graphics, we strive to make our products (and our site) uncluttered, pleasant to look at, and functional. If it's not, there's something wrong with it, and we always highly appreciate and value customer input. And finally, price. We look at the stuff we make, and we honestly put ourselves in the user's point of view. We don't like ripping people off like many other people do. Would we pay for it? I mean, it's good and all, but really folks, we're not going to charge $20 for a simple little program that could go for.. oh.. how about FREE? Most of our products are freeware, because while we think we've made a good program, we don't think it's worth the time, effort, and the little money that it could be worth to pay for it and use it. If we do end up charging for a program, it's at a reasonable, we-would-pay-that price

We thank all our users out there, and don't forget, if you find something wrong, please tell us. :) It's the only way we can continue to bring you quality Mac programs.
