I think I must have a setting wrong, I’m using Mlem but I can only see the title of the post. Is there a gif or othe media attached to this?

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

It’s an image. I was using Mlem too, now giving Memmy a shot and the experience seems better

There's a photo of a tank game.

I saw the thumbnail and thought "Scorched Earth?"

Then I clicked and, sure enough, it's Scorched Earth!

I had it on my computer for a very long time, but it's not programmed to take the increased processing speeds of modern computers into account, so trying to play it on a current system is playing it on super extreme fast-forward.

In that time and place, it was magical

There is always Scorched 3D. Available in a package manager near you.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

That game was the fucking best.

Scorched Earth was awesome, never got a lot done in computer classes at school because of it :)

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Same here. We had this and a bunch of other games on our school computer and got very little done.

pretty sure there was a flash version of this game back in the early 00's. Something tickling the brain

I'm old enough to have hand coded a precursor to this on the Commodore Pet.

I remember the one with gorillas throwing explosive bananas at each other

Anyone remember the name of a space game from around that time , or maybe even bit earlier, was DOS at least. I think it was 3D view from cockpit, chasing and shooting others. I remember it was possible to multiplayer over LAN

Was after this game but Descent?

Descent 1995

Om thinking even older , might have been Elite https://bbc.godbolt.org/?disc=elite.ssd&autoboot
