    This site design is one of the best retro Mac site designs I've seen. The author really nailed the pixel perfect fonts — it looks perfect on my low-DPI and high-DPI displays.

    If anyone's interested, there's an active HyperCard community with some fun projects. There's a Discord server, too. https://hypercard.org/

    Myth II is there but not Myth. Was the source never made available for it? I thought project magma had adapted the engine for II to run both games. The Avara port probably warrants a slot at some point too.
