    Default Need help remember an old possible DOS game!

    I do remember playing it on a school computer back in 1993.

    It reminds me a lot of this part of Star Fox



    I know it was super smooth, and I know it wasn't "real 3D" it was just the floor and ceiling changing colors to give it that effect.

    But you had control of something, and you had to move up, down, left, and right to avoid walls, and I think it kept getting faster? I can't remember if it was DOS or Windows 3.1, I do recall it being a very small screen for the game play...

    That's all I can really think of! I was searching thru Wii's DOSBOX compatibility and this game hit me. I'd love to play this game again. Any ideas guys?

    Not sure if it was on Dos, but that looks like Buck Rogers and the Planet of Zoom. I used to play it on the Colecovision and it rocked!

    I used to play some game about 10 years ago titled Tunnels of Armaggedon

    Maybe it was Skyroads?

    There's Dosbox on the Wii? Wow, I didn't know the level of emulation had progressed to that yet - very nice!

    What's it like, emulation-wise?

    As for the game you're after, could it be Elite (bit of a long shot)?

    Lots of the older games run great! But not Descent or Rise of the Triad... Nothing like that, but I'm hoping this one works!
