@mavica_again I think it's worth preserving them
@wildweasel nah, it was something made initially for classic B&W Macintosh computers, something from the early-to-mid '90s.
It was Glider and a networked multiplayer space shooter/sim of some kind that I played a bunch of in school, through a network of Macintosh Classics
Sadly I don't remember the other game's name and it's eluded me for a long time, does anyone know what it was (β)
Thought a bit about the old Macintosh game Glider 4.0.
That little ditty that plays at each level transition has been stuck in my head for a long time https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GBsmCE3WB1E&t=13s
i really gotta start a youtube channel so that people will send me rare things for free in the mail
Honestly I need to find more shooters (boomer or not) that just lean into that tongue-firmly-planted-in-cheek feel that ROTT does
That sense of absurdity is comforting
I always find it funny how there was a dance song that samples the theme to The Price is Right and was a modest dance club hit in the 2000s:
@mavica_again it lives!!
okay it's been over an hour of trying to use an image/video to celebrate so screw it
