Fuck man. I used to use a program called “Kidpix” when I was a kid. It was like ms paint but with fun effects and sounds.

I used to love the dynamite tool!

I loved the explosion sound, and the "oh no" when you click the undo button. I have the Windows versions of KidPix on CD somewhere.

Holy. Shit. This is somehow glorious on an oled iPad screen. The late 1900s never looked so good.

Thank you for given me a nostalgia jolt that I didn’t know I wanted, but am fully enjoying right now

When I read the very first bit I was like "oh is that a new kids tv streaming platform from the same creators as kidpix?" Then I was immediately hit with the reality of the grim world we live in

This… not so much.
