"Then earth and fire and air and watery rage Then tree and flesh and stone did understand And know the law of Magister, shaman and sage Lord of the Old Time, ruler over beast and man." Castle Master has some deep lore written fully in verse by the odd and enigmatic Mel Croucher (often best know for the 1984 Deus Ex Machine), talking of ancient times in England where the omnipotent Magister ruled over everything, then the rise of mankind and their many civilizations that never last, and the Normans who built a mighty structure named Castle Eternity, made out of the very rock and soil that is the epicenter of the Magister's power while he slept for centuries and, after waking up, unleashing his magical fury and turning the king and all subjects into ghosts and beasts to haunt the halls of the castle. You choose your character, a prince or princess, as your sibling is imprisoned in Castle Eternity and your first task is to figure out how the hell you're supposed to enter the castle and avoid the deep moat with no more than a shark swimming in it!
Entering one of the huts full of hay bales, a pitchfork and a spirit in the form of a cute black bat with triangular red eyes. The earth shakes (or perhaps that's just you) when you encounter one of the inhabitants turned ghost and critter by the Magister with the message "SPIRITS!!" shown in the bottom part of the screen, and the only way to be victorious is to sling a rock with your slingshot at the spirits, probably because they're just not used to the idea and just flee.
Outside the castle is the Wizard's Hut, the home of a dirty and smelly old wizard that everyone ridiculed but in eventually learned was the Magister himself, risen back from his slumber. We see a the lowest of polygons (this game has very primitive but charming graphics) with a table and a chair with a six-pronged star and some cheese on the table. Let me tell ya, this game has A LOT of cheese to much on throughout the castle.
The castle stables, with a beautiful pinkish-red horse made out of like ten polygons, being a good boye. You open the gate of the stable so the horse can go free if it wants, but it kinda just looks like it wants some food and a pat on the head.

A page from Hobby Consolas with three screenies of roughly textured graphics and a green dragon in flight and some details and drawing parallels to the Virtua graphics (presumably Racing and Fighter)
A very early glimpse in Hobby Consolas magazine of Sega Saturn classic Panzer Dragoon in development, presumably at the stage where it was going to be a 32X game. The graphics definitely have that feel.
Very cool stuff.

societies typically talk about human cognition as working similarly to whatever is seen as the latest and greatest technology. thatโs why we currently describe the brain as a roguelike deckbuilding game about characters making their way up a spire

This was such a good intro to the game, really set the stage, and the gimmick boss battle is fun
Well, I will say other than this hiccup and the usual Super ZZT problem of figuring out exactly what's on screen at any given time, the experience of editing has been very smooth so far, nice work (using ClassicZoo DOS in Zeta for Mac)
Ah thank you! I just kind of assumed it was a FIFO queue sort of thing, but that makes sense too.
...you know, it just hit me, "Enter/Return" is working for most things, it's just one thing that's not working, copying whatever's under the cursor to the pattern list. But that's probably more likely to be a bug with ClassicZoo SUPERZ, I guess?

That's what I thought, but it doesn't seem to work in this context...
Does anyone happen to know how to make an "Enter" keystroke (as opposed to "Return") on a MacBook Air keyboard? @asie.pl maybe since this is for use in Zeta

Nomura no Famicom Trade was a stock trading application for the Japan-only dial-up modem add-on for the Famicom. Through a Nintendo collaboration, the game featured Mario on the information screen, doing a unique little dance.
Thank you!
New blog post! A what-if scenario where we try to see how a home computer designer might've dealt with the field-sequential color television, had the Korean War not stopped that standards' rollout. Enjoy! nicole.express/2026/the-app...
