Serene 🦇I'm playing one of the best and most underrated computer games of all time. Noctis IV. On MS-DOS.
DesertFOXI'm checking out the original Wing Commander Deluxe Edition CD-ROM, I recently found on the Internet Archive's redump library. This one lets you make a dedicated data disk for your savegames.
I ran this on my virtual Compaq Deskpro 386/25MHz without any modification or issue using the latest 86Box v6.0 Beta.

vga256sometimes i fear all of the greatest pixel work was already done in the early 90s
was playing DreamWeb tonight and noticed this scene in a mobster's office. so much thought and careful colour choice went into this scene drawn by artist David Dew over 30 years ago:
- it is drawn from a palette of 256 colours
- the cigar is 3 pixels, with a single pixel for a flaming tip; and yet, manages to perfectly express that it is a cigar.
- the 5 pixel gun slides across the desk in a casual, yet threatening, manner

Crowd funding: Point & Click adventure "Tomáš: King of Rejection"
Mark Bauermeister’s "Tomáš: King of Rejection" aims to be a tribute to “the 1990s, the golden age of adventure games”: In the game, described as a "slapstick comedy" the player must involuntarily take on the role of Jesus after a time-travel accident, having pushed the latter out of the way when trying to connect with a certain Mary Magdalene.
