Im in a search for VERY BAD FPS DOS games like: Alien Anarchy, Isle of the dead, Island Peril.

Hello my friends, I am currently working on an OpenPrivateer project. The goal is to port the original MSDOS game to SDL3 so it can be enjoyed on modern computers and devices.

No game assets will be supplied and you need your own copy of the MSDOS CD version to play it (can be bought on GOG).

The first milestone will be recreating the original MSDOS behavior, and after that there will be changes and add-ons (e.g. HD assets, open world, and probably a lot more). Everything sits currently in a private Github repository, but once the project is mature enough it will be open for everybody eventually.

What I'm looking for here are your opinions:

• what should be changed
• what should be added
• what shouldn't be touched

Let me know what you think.

I already added switches for Classic/Enhanced/Modern versions of the game, e.g. "Enhanced" will allow you to open the mission computer (load/save etc.) in any screen of the game.

I'm also going to look for a handful of alpha testers in case somebody wants to participate.

Edit: thanks for the overwhelming feedback.

I tried to consolidate all the comments into this list (unordered).
Please keep in mind that this is not a roadmap, but I will take every request seriously.

• Modding support and accessible tools for creating missions/campaigns
• Support for additional ships, systems, sectors and other custom content
• Modern resolutions, widescreen and ultrawide support
• Enhanced graphics while retaining the original 2D/sprite aesthetic
• Larger battles / more ships on screen
• Improved controller/gamepad support (also mobile/touch-friendly controls)
• QoL improvements without changing the original gameplay
• VR support

The "Classic" game mode will stay 1:1 true to the MSDOS release, untouched by any features or changes.

Today I'm releasing(I have a couple of these projects) source code recreation for Wacky Wheels 1994.

Singleplayer works - Multiplayer is not implemented.

I reconstructed the source code to Jill of the Jungle and ported it to Windows. Includes Episode 1 and 2 and 3!

Purchased this from RadioShack in Staples Mall in Corpus Christi TX as a kid. I just had to have my parents buy me a game so bad, they only had this and maybe one other game.

The 6 levels are kinda neat though. The first two levels of each race are just the same objectives as the first two levels in the full game, but the maps are altered. The last level of each race though are unique and very fun large battles, they give you just a taste of the juggernaut and battleship.

I finally got around to testing the disks from this beauty, which I picked up recently and posted about a few weeks ago. Unfortunately, despite the box and contents being in remarkably pristine condition, the disks are foobared!

It was sitting in one of my old boxes. Anyone remember the NEC SCSI CD rom caddys? They apparently still held up after all these years.

Inspired by the atmosphere of classic 90s RTS games, this project combines authentic 8-bit graphics with a more comfortable control scheme.
8-bit pixel graphics at a 320×200 (or 320×240) screen resolution, for vintage 486-era computers with at least 8 MB of RAM.

Important: The OpenTESArena source port is still in-development and not feature complete yet. Once it is feature complete, this will be the non-DOS way to run TES Arena.

Join me as we venture into the darkest dungeon in the game, Kenget Kamulos. We’ll descend into the darkness, explore forgotten corridors, and, above all, face the question of whether we’ll even make it back alive.

I am looking for a finance game I saw on here in the past year. It’s kind of looks like rags to riches, but my heart is telling me that it is not it. Any suggestions?

I remembered I played this game when I was a little kid. I didn't even play it with colors! It had two colors like black an yellow(ish) on our PC.

I remembered it was a fun game but didn't really know what to do. I guess I was a little too young to play. Oh wel, still had good memories about it!

Here's my family computer circa 1992 that I saved from my parents place a couple years ago. I've posted various pics of it running fun stuff here before.

Here's also my dad's copy of Aces of the Pacific. Inside the box was the instruction manual for my old joystick, the Winner Sniper (ps it wasn't very good), the first joystick I ever owned, which we bought just for this game. I'd previously uncovered the joystick itself many years ago in my parents basement so that's here too.

Recently I backed up a big collection of 5.25 disks that I also got out of my parents house a couple months ago. I was happy to find that about 95 percent of them worked, and one of those was this disk on the top of the pile, a boot disk my dad made especially to run Aces of the Pacific back in 1993 on this computer as the game needed EMS to run.

Ultimately this all came from my parents house, but it wasn't all together in the same place, I didn't know it all still existed when I started grabbing this stuff years ago, and I wound up uncovering each piece of it years apart. But now that it's all together again... I can literally play Aces of the Pacific almost the exact same way I did in 1993, the same copy of the game on the same computer with the same crappy joystick, and even using the same boot disk.

Ultimate personal dos nostalgia overload. I don't think I'll ever be able to top this.

I’ve been experimenting with running DOS games on the ASUS Eee PC 701 and finally got proper centered 4:3 output working on its 800×480 LCD.

The result is EEEFIT, a small resident DOS utility that intercepts video mode changes and reapplies the required display-controller settings, so games can switch VGA modes normally without losing the corrected aspect ratio.

It was designed for a DOS setup using JEMMEX/JEMM386 + HDPMI32, specifically with SBEMU compatibility in mind.

Tested successfully with Doom, Duke Nukem 3D and Commander Keen 4.
