This is a Brazil release of the Color Dreams game Baby Boomer. This version of the game was published by Gradiente, a large game pirate outfit of South America (though Gradiente now releases Nintendo games for Nintendo themselves).
Jon Valesh offers some incite on this release of Baby Boomer. "
Baby Boomer was the first CD title
made, and something around 200,000 PROMs were burned for it. Only
a small fraction of that number ever sold in the US. PROMs, once
burned, can't be reused, though there was a fair amount of talk
about whether you could use x-rays, or anything else, to erase
them. In the end they were sold off to someone in South America.
It seems likely that they went to Gradiente in Brazil, though I
don't recall the name ever being used. I don't know about Captain
Comic, but I expect the same is true. After that, PROMs were
burned as product shipped."
