Radix: Beyond the Void
Despite everyone comparing it to Descent, it is nothing like Descent.

The first person shooter ones, mainly, Wolf3D, Dooms, Quakes, Duke3D, ROTT, Blood, Shadow Warrior, etc. They're extremely fun.

It is hard to pick favourites, there are many good DOS games. The original Heroes of Might & Magic II right now, specifically.

Reaping the Dungeon, a sci-fi roguelike. Episode 1 is available widely online, but episode 2 is harder to find.

Grand Prix 2

>> No.7858404

Just bought Secret Agent by Apogee, I played the first shareware episode as a kid and recently have been itching to finally buy the full version and complete it once and for all. It’s decent enough. Also have some fond memories of Alien Carnage so I think I’ll get that next.

Other than the usual suspects (Doom, Quake, etc.) another DOS game I’m super fond of is Stargunner, also published by Apogee. Personally think it’s super underrated and the full game has been made freeware so there’s nothing to lose in trying it, it’s like Raptor on steroids.

Damn I think I’m gonna have to try this. Is it possible to map an Xbox Wireless Controller to DOSBox or something to play with this game?

Yeah, I play it through a PS4 controller with motion controls, get Dosbox ECE tho.
Normal Dosbox doesn't run it at the correct speed

I remember this thing every several years, struggle with some mild nostalgia against the memory of frustration and endless restarts and forget again. Maybe I was just shit at the game.

Why would it run different? Are you saying there is a difference between the main branch of Dosbox and -ECE even when you use the same amount of cycles?
>>7858675
I like the Tandy color scheme better, you can patch your DOS version to change the colors.

Apparently, yes. GP2 runs a bit faster in normal dosbox, if set at the same framerate/same cycles.
