This September and October I'm taking part in the Social Bite 100 miles challenge along with some of my colleagues at Ninja Kiwi. It's a charity fundraiser to help provide support for homeless people. If you can spare it, a donation would be appreciated!

A small but significant design change in HarleQuest!'s HUD is to move the player's stamina to a wheel directly above them instead of a bar on the top left. It's way easier at a glance to see how much stamina you have left!

We love this style of controller for the Dreamcast but we realise that our games won't work well with them due to lack of analogue sticks. What do you think about supporting these in HarleQuest! and other games? www.timeextension.com/features/let...

I was about to pick up a copy of Bryce 7.1 from DAZ Studio to do some retro landscape artwork but on a whim I checked my email (some Humble Bundles contain software).
Lo and behold, I had a copy I got for free direct from DAZ back in 2012. They even kept my account over 13 years of inactivity!
