McKong Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 Are we including PoP and RoF in the 2021 games? I guess both aren't quite ready yet and deserve a round of their own when they are 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedThunder Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 I hope Tank Commander gets a look in, but not looking likely. Highly playable on the emulator with the speed ramped up to 198%. Just noticed you can turn the turret independently whilst holding the fire key. Nice game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlsson Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 Hm, are there games where you are likely to score better if you overclock the computer? I mean for those of us who play on real hardware, we can't really turn up the clock frequency to 3.6 MHz in order for the game to run more smoothly.

This updated version fixes the "load" issues that some folks were experiencing, and also fixes a PAL/Graphics bug.
