For a year I've been working on my own Grand Prix simulator. Not an arcade game, but a real challenging sim engine with attention to detail and real life F1 physics. A friend works for the Williams F1 team and I've been a mega F1 since the 90s. Putting as much of my passion and knowledge into it as possible. And yes it has pit girls.

There's plenty of modern racing sims and the more photorealistic they get the more boring IMHO.

I felt I wanted to do something different, so I went back to the DOS days.

I have a custom 3D engine, and a game API, which translates GP2's logic to my new engine. It's way beyond just a port (or recomp). The gameplay and much loved AI is all there, even the original physics and cars, but the graphics and physics engine are new, and now basically everything can be modded or new features added like a dynamic weather system for wet races. Because it isn't an off the shelf engine like Unity I can maintain the 90s charm as well. My own lighting engine in C++, my own texturing, and so on.

Going to try and get it out the door next week! Some footage of it running: https://www.youtube.com/@GP2Revival

Finally I resolved a youth trauma... hehe

I would like to remind myself the games of my youth: Wing Commander 3 and Tie Fighter, but without the toil of mouse playthrough (it's been 30 years and I still hate the thought of a dog fight with an A-Wing in a Gunboat using a ball mouse).

Would you recommend me a joystick, preferably with hall-sensors, as I hate steering drift, that would work well with DosBox on Linux and wouldn't break the bank?

Simply a masterpiece for the year, and a worthy successor to the outstanding Ultima VI.

Hi Everyone!

I wanted to let everyone know that (using AI obv.) I made a Rust version of CyberMage: Darklight Awakening compatible with modern system, ultrawide, adaptive resolution targeting 60fps and full controller support.

I always liked this game but it really was always terrible to try to run it and the controls where not the best thing so I tryed to fix both things, I wanted to execute the game without dosbox and obviously add full controller support.

You can find the game here.

To play the game you need the iso of the US version of the game v1.01f... the one that you can easily find and download on abandonware.

The game is fully playable and is compatible with the original savegames, let me know if you find some bugs.

I hope you enjoy!

Hi all, I've AI SLOPED a browser version of Raptor: Call of the Shadows, the classic DOS vertical shooter. Actually I think that was very first game I've ever played.

It's a WebAssembly port of the open-source reverse-engineered source by skynettx/raptor, compiled with Emscripten and running in any modern browser. Nothing to install.

Play: https://arielkuzminski.github.io/raptor-web/ Source: https://github.com/arielkuzminski/raptor-web (a fork of skynettx/raptor, GPLv2+)

What's different from the original:

• Smooth motion: game logic keeps its original timing, and rendering is interpolated between steps. Choose 60, 120, 144 FPS or match your monitor.
• Widescreen: 16:9 presentation with a blurred copy of the game on the sides.
• Music: Sound Blaster music is played through an OPL3 emulator, so no SoundFont files are needed.
• Language: English by default, plus a Polish translation. The translation system supports other languages.
• Saves and settings are kept in your browser.

You need your own game files. Nothing from the game is hosted or included in the project. You need the original FILE0000.GLB and FILE0001.GLB (shareware) or FILE0000.GLB to FILE0004.GLB (full version 1.2+). You select them on the start screen, and they stay in your browser only.

I'm not affiliated with the rights holders of Raptor. Feedback, bug reports, and issues are welcome on GitHub.

Hello,
I decided this weekend to create a remastered HD version of one of my favorite childhood games Ivan 'Ironman' Stewart's Super Off Road with a online multiplayer.

This was one of the first games I played. At that time I collected bottles to rent a NES console and this game. Had only 24hrs to play it so no much sleep during that time. Now with the current tech I was able to bring it back alive and would love to race against other people if there are any one who would like to playtest this with me.

It has also a sigle player mode so you can practice.

Game can be found at: https://offroad.blinkki.com

Batman: The Caped Crusader is an arcade adventure which uses a unique style, innovated by Jonathan Smith and Charles Davies, to display the action as though it takes place in a comic book.[2] This technique involved having each game location set in its own panel, often with a comic book style caption in the upper-left corner, with inactive panels faded out behind the current active location. This concept was expanded upon by Sega's Comix Zone seven years later.[3]

The game was split into two independently playable parts in which Batman is faced with two of his most well-known adversaries: "A Bird In The Hand" featuring the Penguin and "A Fete Worse Than Death" which involved the Joker. The gameplay involves Batman using punches and kicks and his batarang (a thrown weapon) in order to fight the villains' henchmen as well as solving puzzles.

iPad Mini 7th Gen, iDOS 3, copied my Steam version to the iPad. The iPad actually fits in the box with the manuals, disks, etc.. 🤣

And it’s not another byte-perfect recreation, soulless port or web version (but that exists too!).

I played the game as a kid and loved it back then. A few years ago I tried it again, and some things just weren’t as fun anymore.
Ever since I was a child, I wanted to improve the game and make it more fun and enjoyable.
So here is my try with the game engine reimplementation using a modern framework, and the core mechanics are built with techniques that weren’t possible in the original DOS days.
This is my vision of how the game should have been, and I hope it will be fun for both old fans and new players.

The game is available on itch.io, GitHub, and there is also web build running on my personal web page with original shareware version of the game.

The game was released exactly 30 years ago (in 1996), and I recently found out that the original source code was lost in a flood. Anyway, happy anniversary to the game and the original developers!
