Goodness you certainly covered your bases there. Maybe, possible, unable to find any more and in the past. I was speaking of my own experiences. I know what I saw back then in shops, magizines and in real life. If there was a huge amount of shareware/apps available there'd be links all over the …

Nothing was lost, except some time to switch distros. That's the beauty of Linux. Suggesting TempleOS means your are not a true believer of the church of Saint IGNUcius. What a shame.

Yes, going 3D was a decision that I've never understood. Even at the time, it was ugly as sin. Refine CMI graphics for the sequel, and then you get a hit game ! Instead we got a bland game with awkward controls... Meh.

Oh, Inner Worlds, that's one of my favorite DOS games from my childhood. It's rather obscure, this is a nice surprise ! :) The graphics and music are still excellent, even to this day.
