Hey anyone remember this game?
http://www.duke.edu/~mfc5/HOVER.htm

Came with the windows 95 disk.
Old raycasted 3D game I used to play a lot when I was a little kid. Back when windows 95 was new and 3d games were like O_Oshocked2.gif .

you have to have powerups for them to do anything- look at your dashboard. a is spring, s is wall and d is cloak if I'm not mistaken. Collect the green balls to get them.

that might be an interesting idea, or even in BASIC if it is done right

68k would be really easy to do it on. :o The fat engine should work great.

@4ce_labs: you only got to level 15? O_Oshocked2.gif When I was a little kid, I was up in the 30's and when I recently found it again, I got up to level 23 without dying. :o

Hover rules, there is no argument on this fact. I remember being thrilled that it was included with the windows 95 disk that I had.
