The Windows version is available as an installer or a ZIP-file, and the Linux-version is available as a gzipped tar archive. Both versions are binary only.

I do not "expect" anything. I had (and still have) a lot of fun developing the game, and seeing the result of my work being appreciated by so many people is a great reward! But if you really like the game and you want to show your gratitude you can simply send me a postcard from your home. I would find it really interesting to see where you all come from!

Mind you, this is not a must. I leave the decision to you. But if you really want to fulfill my wish then here is my address:

  Thorsten Kuphaldt
  Prinz-Otto-Strasse 23
  85521 Ottobrunn
  Germany

Donations

Some people have suggested that i also put a PayPal donation button online - so i did . There is no minimum amount or anything, absolutely everything is appreciated! Apart from the obvious motivational boost i get from your donation, whatever you donate will be used to pay the hosting bill and to buy me food and stuff to keep me programming late at night for the next version

And i also hope this funny button works at all... if it doesn't please notify me!

Typhoon Heroes

You will also earn eternal fame* after you donated or sent me a postcard because your name will be added to the "Typhoon Heroes" list (if you donated something then the amount will not be disclosed) - if you do not want this for some reason please tell me!

* Please note: The phrase "eternal fame" might not apply in all cases.
