@dosnostalgic Fight Club? I don’t think I would recognize the sound track…

@dosnostalgic there is a quicktime DLL visible at the end…

@dosnostalgic Oh wow, this smells of Autodesk 3D Studio or something like that. Seems to use QuickTime?

And here is another one: Monochrome amber CRT on a Hercules Graphics Card.

@dosnostalgic sorry to hear that. Are you looking for a job?

@dosnostalgic I have to admit I found it relatively enjoyable. I had very low expectations and was entertained for a while. As long as you don’t take it as fact or horribly accurate, it’s not that bad of a flick.

@dosnostalgic Really? Gamecube?

@dosnostalgic have you found a new apartment already?

@dosnostalgic You have my sympathies. Here in Germany we also have increasing floods. It’s terrible.

@dosnostalgic please do! Probably requires older apps that run on X11R4 or R5.

@dosnostalgic have you ever tried connecting to a Linux box and running some apps?

@dosnostalgic is this a true X11 display server? Which release?

@dosnostalgic looks like „Impossible Mission“ meets „Incredible Machine“

@dosnostalgic @carcosa of course it does. Unplayable by design. Have you got more examples? I only know Ballblazer (sort of same concept) and Breakfree off of the top of my head.

@carcosa that‘s basically Ballblazer.

@carcosa also: Breakfree! I remembered this game from some cover disc (probably CD) in the 90s.

@dosnostalgic can probably tell you more about it…

The 486SX-25 was the CPU on which I probably learned the most in my youth. First Linux installation, first serious coding efforts. What was your most influential CPU?

@dosnostalgic that’s Peter Norton, or…?

@dosnostalgic I just had a look on YouTube: it looks very smooth. And the game mechanics seem interesting. They way the mech(?) moves.
