Interesting.

Archimedian Dynasty nearly worked at some point. I think the main problem was with the mouse emulation and it's been rewritten since I last tried AD.

Ply works, but is too slow to be playable. Not syre where the bottleneck is.

Screamer Rally works. It worked well last time I tried it. Perfectly playable.

Yes, these are all confirmed DOS Games that use the OVL (in other words, "dynamic linked") that are currently not listed with screenshots/description on your Glidos.net website. 😀

There are many problems with Pyl in Glidos so the slow down may also be a result of one of them:
- non-wall objects and creatures/enemies are not visible. You have to be one meter close to them to see them at all.
- lights and light effects are missing
- smoke is black istead of white
So I wouldn't bother with speed till game works properly in Glidos.
