It was a different time, the world moved on to web enabled / multi-user applications. Hypercard and MS Access where decidedly built around single users with the latter having multi-user capabilities but not great support for it. They where both designed in a time where a constant network connection was a luxury and not a commodity. They where awesome for their time, but it was also a simpler time, as of yet no one has come up with a stupid simple app builder for present day computing realities as complexity has exploded, its a interesting problem and if a person could make creating simple apps for web/mobile/multi-user as easy as Hypercard was, they would certainly be rolling in fortunes.
