It's only because everyone is running. Walking speed is much slower.

The recompiled PC version of Duke Nukem Zero Hour got a mod that allows you to play it in first person with mouse + keyboard support, really awesome

I am one of those people for whom Spongebob doesn't exist beyond the 3rd season. Which is partly why my hottest pop culture take is: Star Wars is for children, and Spongebob isn't.

What I meant to say that the DOS port is inferior. In, like, every aspect.

I didn't look, but I'm going to bet that the version on Steam is probably the DOS port bundled with DOSbox, in which case it would be a no. Those EXXOS games are Atari ST -> Amiga games first, so I'd recommend using appropriate emulators instead. This game is more of a curiosity anyway.

Looks like support for ERE Informatique's (pre-Cryo) bizarre adventure game "KULT: The Temple of Flying Saucers" aka "Chamber of the Sci-Mutant Priestess" is coming to ScummVM in the future.

Github commit comment:

AUDIO: MT32: Simulate original green LCD in OSD
Change showLCDMessage from adding messages to simulating the original MT-32 display.
Create a surface using a background BMP and draw the text
pixel-by-pixel with a 6x8 font. Use the rendering logic and character maps from the Munt emulator.

ScummVM is capable of displaying Roland MT-32 messages in-game from now on.

And on a more serious note: don't try playing this at home, kids, because war is not a game - war, as Cannon Fodder demonstrates in its own quirky little way, is a senseless waste of human resources and lives. We hope that you never have to find out the hard way.

They are *all* like that. Some are better, some are worse, but the overall template is the same for every screen.

I want to love this game. I love a lot *about* it. But I can't say I love actually playing it. And that's coming from someone who adores the previous games (not so much the 4th one).

Anyone else playing Gobliins 6? I just want to know if I'm getting older, or is this just the most frustrating Goblins game?

Neat DOS game remake: God of Thunder 3D!

It's free on itch and steam. Very faithful to the original, but gives it a 3D Dot Heroes look:
