Goddamn I& #39;m looking at a thread of DOS game dev from people here and its making me want to get on the 486 and play DOS games.
My original 486 died but luckily I had the foresight to build this computer last year. Now this is the only working 486 I have.
Skyroads
Rise of the Triad
I can& #39;t begin to describe how nostalgic this image is to me. Not only the table preview but that warm color pallette and the dotted font.
Here is a sample of music from Android shareware from Epic Pinball back when my GUS was in this 486. It& #39;s so much louder and cleaner than the SB16. https://twitter.com/JikissGamer/status/1178150173496754176?s=20">https://twitter.com/JikissGam...
Legend of Kyrandia.
Dangerous Dave by John Romero.
Wolfenstein 3D
Ultima 7
Supaplex has probably my favorite theme. It& #39;s all about computer circuitry. Look at all those PCBs and traces, and those capacitors and resistors and chips! And floppy disks.
I& #39;m continuing this thread now because I passed out yesterday in the middle of it.
Ken& #39;s Labyrinth
I love the way the original Jazz Jackrabbit looks. The level with the diamonds makes me want candy. And I love the entire tileset of Tubelectric. And all the floppy disk and Gravis Gamepad collectibles in the game. It has such a DOS feel to it. With a touch of Amiga as well.
Duke Nukum
16-color EGA
Doom.
Red Baron.
How many of you can hear this image?
Sega Genesis Aladdin has a DOS port. It& #39;s got some nice sampled music but the quality is a bit crushed.
Tyrian.
Prince of Persia
Blackthorne.

I love those little cutscenes in the opening.
Apogee
Jill of the Jungle
Sim City
