The Archive

I have decided to make every previous version of Costa available for download, to preserve its history and to allow anyone interested in seeing how Costa has evolved to do so.

In the archive you will find a complete list of releases, with changelog for each version, as well as a screenshot.

It's a long list, with releases spanning nearly two decades. To download the most recent version of Costa, head on over to the Download section.

Version 1.8.0 Version 1.7.5 Version 1.7.4 Version 1.7.3 Version 1.7.2 Version 1.7.1 Version 1.7.0 Version 1.6.0 Version 1.5.0 Version 1.4.0

Version 1.4.0

Released on the 22nd of May, 2021

As with the previous release, the focus with this release has mainly been on behind-the-scenes improvements. A long requested flood fill function has been added to the icon editor.

  • Fill functionality (“paint bucket”) for Icon Editor - right click any area to fill out that area with the current color. Makes for much easier editing!
  • New icon format, cutting size of icons on disk roughly in half
  • Heavy optimizations for icon editor
  • Several minor bug fixes - running Costa on a Windows machine produced bugs not present in DOSBox. These have been corrected. CuteMouse driver replaced with Microsoft’s mouse.com, since the former produced errors on some Windows machines.
  • More icons and themes
