I was never seriously considering it, because it would have required tearing the engine apart, but I did at one point toy around with the idea of creating CGA and EGA versions of the game. Would have been cool.
Developing that game sure was fun, though.
(For differing values of "fun")

Azrael's Tear? More like Azrael's Screen Tear! Nah it's fine, I just have trouble trying to get a consistent speed! (also a little bit of F.Godmom to warm up) Streaming now! https://twitch.tv/sonneveld #DOSGaming #Twitch #Streaming #Retrogaming #retro #Retrocomputing #DOS #MSDOS

I was today years old when I realised one of the 'pilots' in the audience of the 'Art of the Kill' dogfighting lecture (bonus feature from 1991 DOS flight-sim 'Falcon 3.0'), was actually 'Top Gun: Maverick's' Rooster time-travelling in from 2022.
They were, in fact, members of a Falcon 3.0 fan forum, but the resemblance is striking!

it is safe to say that 90% of my taste in computer games is thanks to the original abandonware site Home of the Underdogs. every few months i’d make it a point to download one of their Top Dog awarded games, and all of them lived up to it.
in particular, westwood/infocom’s Mines of Titan always interested me. it never quite fit into infocom’s IF catalog, and it predated the much more popular Eye of the Beholder. i always avoided it because it looked like just another dungeon crawler.
as it turns out, Mines of Titan is far closer to Wasteland or Neuromancer than any other game. part text adventure, part rpg, it evokes a surprisingly unique world that easily fits in a philip k dick styled universe.
today, the box arrived after two decades of looking for one. per infocom’s exceptional marketing company, the browsies included in the box are wonderful - official letterheads and employee bulletins from mars corporations.

The latest version of #x86gp2 adds support for rainy weather, btw.
Nomad and Star Quest (DOS) look so good. I don't want to play them, but I want to make games look like them.
