MinWin on DSource

Thursday, November 30th, 2006

Following the announcement of the MinWin library update the other day, the project has migrated to DSource. Now you can fetch the source from SVN. The project has always had a forum there, but the source was hosted elsewhere. Have fun!

New D Game: Titanion

Thursday, November 30th, 2006

Anyone who has been around D for a while will likely have heard of Kenta Cho and ABA Games. If you hadn’t before, now you have. His free games, a few of which were created with D, are known outside of the D community and actually introduced some D users to the language. Now, he has released a new game in his unique style — a shooter called Titanion. Thanks to Eric Anderton for letting us know in the D NG. I hadn’t checked up on ABA in a long while.

To the D-users in the US: Happy Thanksgiving! Please eat some extra turkey for me. Not too much, I don’t want to gain any more weight.
