It's out. They have the nerve to charge for it.

It isn't even the best version. It's fucking DOS we're talking about, not the Amiga conversion done by Westwood.

That's also the remake from 1985, not the original PC conversion from 82.

Steam trash devs could crank out a remake in about a week.
Selling a 30-year-old game with no enhancements is just lazy.

And of course there was Gateway to Apshai which is on only the Atari 8-bit/C64/Colecovision while the TOA trilogy were on basically every computer--no TI/99-4A or TRS-80 CoCo ports though. :D

Doing what? You think these guys are going to disassemble the PC port and know how 1985 x86 assembly language software works so they can remake it?

From the brief window during which the Amiga was king of the hill and PCs were CGA/EGA bleep shit.

How come pixel art people use the 2-bit Gameboy palette all the time, but 2-bit CGA is highly rare?

>> No.7005121

>>7005094
The CGA palette is ugly and a lot of pixel art people are nostalgiafags who played Gameboy games as children. Most of them probably never played old PC games.

>> No.7005314

CGA in composite mode was quite decent.

an Atari 2600 port sounds like fun, but then I realized it would just be Adventure
