4542 NetHack Falcon's Eye games -1 NetHack Falcon's Eye Excellent game. Diablo - who needs it!! 2002-01-17 04:11:46 0
4543 Tower Toppler games -1 Tower Toppler SUPER!!!! 2002-01-17 04:59:59 0
4544 Tower Toppler games -1 Tower Toppler Yes, it's a quite nice game (a bit difficult, though). I just wonder why that announcement comes up now. Version 0.71 has been released August 2001 (that's when I downloaded it...) Pit 2002-01-17 11:09:40 0
4545 AGIL games -1 AGIL Are there also some screenshots of this game? 2002-01-17 11:48:10 0
4546 Tower Toppler games -1 Tower Toppler This is FYI a old classic called Nebulous on the Amiga, back in the 80's. :) 2002-01-18 00:12:48 0
4547 Scorched 3D games 5360 Scorched Island 3D A 3d game should NOT be using Allegro for its graphics. Allegro is not 3d accelerated, and besides, it says so right in Allegro's FAQ. If it uses an accelerated API (preferably SDL) and gets a better interface, it could be good, but right now it just doesn't cut it. 2002-01-18 03:43:17 0
4548 NetHack Falcon's Eye games 2328 NetHack Falcon's Eye Woohoo! An old favorite joins the 21st Century! And it still resembles the Rogue that I remember playing way back in the day. The new graphics and music are wonderfully done, and the engine is nice and smooth (that thing about busy-waiting on the keyboard is worrysome, though). The only reason this doesn't have five stars is because of the compilation. Autoconf is not just a convenience, it is a necessity, IMNHBNWBHO. :-) 2002-01-18 05:40:24 0
4549 NetHack Falcon's Eye games 5225 NetHack Falcon's Eye Falcon's Eye is an excellent eye-candy-tour-de-force for nethack & rpg lovers! The same play mechanics of the classic nethack in all its isometric-glory! It's not a stright compile, but I wanted to express my appreciation to Jaakko Peltonen (falcon's eye author) for helping me compile this game on my Solaris UltraSparc box...! =) Cheers., Georgie http://come.to/georgie 2002-01-18 12:35:28 0
4550 AGIL games 5225 AGIL AGIL (0.14) is a good attempt to bring Sierra's AGI adventure games for UNIX...and as such, AGIL is not that bad! It uses now SDL, and it has some sound...and this is what I've experienced: a) Music is a bit too loud, and not accurate (LSL1)... b) The screen is small, and can't be resized...but that's not too bad...! =) c) AGIL is compilable under Solaris Sparc with SDL...! Keep up the good work for AGIL! THe other AGI engine I've used is SARIEN, and it has ok sound, and bigger screen, and again, compilable under Solaris SParc...and it doesn't use SDL... Cheers!

4551 Mures games -1 Mures These guys have done a great work cloning Segas cool "Chu chu rocket"! It would be nice if they could include the options "easy/slow", "normal/faster", "hard/fastest", as I think its to hard now. A nice title screen/anim would be heavy. :) Rating: 4/5 2002-01-19 08:40:54 0
