A contemplation by Mittens Ruth on whimsical imagery!

Oh wow... This is something special! I found an early pre-release version of "Castle of the Winds" .. v0.5.4. This was apparently released exclusively for Microsoft employees back in the day.

I think it's an awesome collector's piece! My gratitude goes to "iamxray" for his generous upload.

Here's where I found it:

Dear followers, some of you may know that there is a state in Brazil suffering from a severe climate catastrophe. Well, this state is called Rio Grande do Sul, and I live here. We've been dealing with almost 2 weeks of heavy rain, which made many rivers and lakes to flood, one of them in my hometown, the capital Porto Alegre. Many of my friends had to abandon their houses and some of them lost everything. Since a decade ago we've been dealing with a extreme neoliberal agenda that promoved heavy economic austerity in the capital and in the whole state. Now, the government doesn't have resources to save and protect the people for the next calamities. We are on our own. So, I'll post here a link of a very respectable social organization from Brazil, the movement for homeless workers (MTST) which is accepting international donations. THIS IS A SERIOUS POST, NOT A SCAM, you can search the topic on your own if you want.

Link for donations:

I have just relased a new version 2.9 of GrafX2, "the ultimate 256-color painting program".
Binaries are available for Haiku, Gamepark Holdings GP2x, Nintendo Switch, Atari Mint and Windows (yes, our build automation somehow focuses only on the most ridiculous platforms). For Linux it should hopefully be updated in your favorite distribution soon.
Not a lot of changes in this version, many bugfixes and more fileformats supported (Apple IIgs, C64, CPC, Atari TT...)

New Secret Area post: PopStar Guitar on the PS2.

A knockoff of Guitar Hero/Rock Band, it really feels like something your mom would get instead of the real thing.

Likes, reposts and comments appreciated, as always.
