Very good looking, congrats!

Does your definition of "stupid thing" applies to tickling itself?

Took some time to test. It builds pretty easily (on Ubuntu, at least), the asset extraction is bit more involved (hint : you WANT to read and understand tools/extract.sh) but overall quite doable.

It runs, renders, basic camera controls work. But I haven't managed to take off. Still rather impressive and full of promises.

For what it's worth, that same github user already reverse-engineered the game : https://github.com/skynettx/raptor and this one should be able to compile on modern platforms.

There is probably a story behind the source release, I wonder what it is...

Wow, incredible news! So many memories

That's not as true as it's been : they've published kernel modules as opensource. It's clearly not perfect nor comparable to what AMD or Intel do/did, but it's way better than when Linus raised that finger ;)

why not? (haven't seen any myself, tbh)

I haven't managed to get too much time playing it yet, but everytime I read about OpenHV, it lifts up my heart. Really proves hope is never lost, and a long forgotten project could finally come to light.

That, and also I really liked the art style of Tyrian and HardVacuum designs.

I've had a blast playing Smokin' Guns : https://www.smokin-guns.org/downloads

(Veloren is pretty awesome too, in a completely different way : https://veloren.net/ )

End users (so to speak) usally don't buy full parmesan wheels, anyway ;)

Great, I guess I just jumped off that ship before it became cool again ;)

Thanks for the insightful update.

To this guy, yes, though less to this article (that is pretty watered-down) than to the regular rants he posted to friendica/zot/... on that particular subject. Thanks for spotting his interview, though, brings black memories
