arrow Blockland
lego.jpgToday on the Screensavers they had some cool user created images from Blockland, a free multiplayer application where you build LEGO like structures, people, things...I'm going to download this, build some stuff and post up the images in the Make pool.

arrow Atari 2600 Zoo Keeper Audio
zookeeper.gifWe love the Atari 2600 here at Make, a lot. Here's a cool story about a rumored port of the game Zoo Keeper- the game itself has not materialized, but the programmer who worked on the audio saved his source code. That source has now been turned in to a binary that you can play on just about any Atari 2600 emulator. More information and download here... Read more...
