Used to post here long ago.

Is this place still active? Long time ago I used to play Marble Blast Gold regularly on my mac, however since then I got a windows laptop and all the macs in my household are broken due to time. Wikipedia said the garage games company went through some changes and don't sell the game anymore. If I rebought it for windows, would the game still play on my Windows 7 Laptop? Note the complete ironic reversal of my problem in the above linked old thread.

It should work fine on a Win7 laptop. The chances of finding somewhere to purchase it though are pretty much none. I don't know of any place that does still sell it.

All I know is that this is the first result when searching for the game.

It seems to be just the demo, but user reviews are complaining that the game doesn't show up after they download it. A bad sign?

Hey, long time no see.

Marble Blast Gold is still available to purchase via the Mac Games Store (1.6u) but obviously that is for Mac users only.

To get MBG for Windows... well, I think you know how. Sadly it's also the only way and there's nothing we can do about it, but you know, it keeps the community active.

It technically died years ago, everyone moved to marbleblast.com which is where the community resides, and is still active to this date. Last year we had maybe 120 custom levels made but that's because the large majority of level designers are working on mods for Marble Blast.
