Dangerous Dave
Dave’s Back – and he’s mad! Literally! He’s completely lost his marbles—can you help him get them back? Guide him through ten levels of the asylum he’s thrown into. You’ll need to keep your wits about you as you keep Dave climbing the walls to regain his freedom. A double hi-res arcade delight!

MIDIsaveSex
MIDIsaveSex is a desktop program which can receive one or more sequences of MIDI SysEx messages. After reception, the information can be saved to disk. At any later time, the file can be retrieved and its contents sent back to the MIDI network. Typical information which can be contained in these messages are setup parameters, sound parameters, contents of internal sequencers etc. etc. .

Font
Camouflage: All the hunters in the crowd should be very excited about this offering to the spirits of the safari. Looking very much like the tigers we stalked as children (or feared were in the bedroom closet – one of the two), it should stand up to any font with great strength and purpose.

Spencer’s Corner
Spell Game: Spell Game is different. It’s finally a graphic you can use for a specific purpose (and for that purpose only, I suspect). Spell Game is a game board for your child(ren) to have fun and learn to spell at the same time. It’s useful for those rainy or snowy days when you need something con structive to do with the kids, or when you want them to occupy themselves while you wash, iron, or whatever.

Animations
Head on over to your Platinum Paint program (or other animation-capable program) and load this animation by Michael. It really looks even better with the lights off and Pink Floyd playing in the background. Try it!

IIGS’s on the World Wide Web
This column will be a new addition to the regular SDGS article line-up. I use AOL and eWorld to search all over the Web for interesting SDGS information. Most of the fruits of my search will be found here.
