A persistent world, where landscapes can be created, destroyed, painted, added to, and navigated through. Simple enough for an 8 year old to use, but deep enough for an artist to explore .Click here to try SandCastles.
(you will need Macromedia's Director MX plugin )

In the virtual world, the terrain can be any size, any shape, it can twist like an Escher labyrinth, float like a soap bubble, and flame on command. The only limitation is your imagination, and your ability to use the tools of genesis.

This is where SandCastles begins. Instead of a unlimited number of multiverses where the polygon deft digerati build their individual worlds, I am interested in a democratic approach where anyone can play in a single world, and add their own unique signature to it.
