Hello, I just released the soundtrack to a shareware game for MS-DOS called Slip Speed, which was submitted earlier this year for the DOS Games Jam. It's a top-down racing game, a bit like Micro Machines meets Wipeout. More info about the game here: https://voxel.itch.io/slipspeed Since the game …

Does it hold up to the novel it's based on? :) I've not read the novels myself, but I've been told they're more grim than the game is. Also the novels no doubt contain more details than the game, as is expected I suppose. But that said, I think the game is great and definitely holds up in its own …

I will watch the video when I get a chance . This game does not get talked about enough . Is it available on any online store ? The fact that it was free at some point does not necessarily imply free to redistribute forever . I wish that could be cleared up by the publisher and possibly Pohl's …

One of my all-time favourites . I was lucky enough to get a digital copy when they were giving it away free in the late 90s . Cool! I never knew at the time it was released as freeware, but I did learn it when researching for this video. There's a small section about it in the end :) Definitely a …

As some might know, Frederik Pohl's Gateway (1992) by Legend Entertainment is the DOS Game Club of the month right now. I normally like to watch one or two video reviews on our games of the month to prepare for our podcasts, but bizarrely I couldn't find any videos on this game. So I decided to make …

dreamblaster wrote on 2020-04-25, 16:41: Does the game have complete adlib support ? -->I mean, are the sound effects also played through adlib card? No, the music is composed for OPL3 chips (such as found on the SoundBlaster 16). The sound effects are all PCM audio.

Thanks! I tried the share version on my celeron DOS pc and it works well, very nice. Could not get it to work with opl3lpt (adlipt driver), i think because your game uses protected mode (through CWSDMPI). Would you consider supporting opl3lpt ? I'd love to support OPL3LPT, but I'm not sure what …

I was responsible for the OPL3 FM-synth music on a newly developed DOS game called SLIPSPEED. I thought it would be interesting for people here to read a little about the background of this project, so I wrote some words about it: https://martijnfrazer.nl/slipspeed-radical-music/ If you want to see …
