And we seem to be back on the air! Apologies to all for being offline for several days. This past Saturday, the Copenhagen area, where our servers are located, was hit by the worst rainfall in 30+ years. Many places have been flooded, and there have been widespread power outages.
This also affected our servers who apparently found themselves under several feet of water. Our web host has been struggling non-stop ever since to get its customers back online.
Well, I certainly hope we're there. I'm not sure if any data being added just prior to the crash has been lost, so if you've submitted anything recently and it's not in place, please let us know.
Again, thanks for being patient.

Lo and behold!
Exactly one year ago the new version of CASA was born (kicking and screaming, too!) My my, how time flies when you're having fun :)
We've come a long way since then, and the baby keeps growing nicely - and more or less according to schedule. Thanks, everybody, for keeping those contributions coming, and a particular thank you to my co-admins for helping with the creation of the site and the maintenance!
(For the record, Google came up a little short when it came to "text adventure birthday cake" - shesh... so this tasty-looking piece of C64 goodness was the best I could come up with)

They appear when someone thinks that enough new or updated material has been added to the site that an update is warranted, or when some important news is pending.

Among other things, this week's update features a number of games created with
STAC, the Atari ST successor to GAC.
In addition, I located
a number of Japanese games for Fujitsu's FM-7 series. As my Japanese skills are slightly underwhelming, I'd be grateful for any input as to what these games are about :) (and I'm sure that
Exercises in the Hell is just a really, really bad translation)
