Played this on my 286. It may not quite have been what you were originally aiming for, but I love how cryptic and glitchy this is! It reminds me of bringing home a batch of copied games from a friend that they copied from someone else, going through them one by one, and trying to make sense of something you just have no context for. Are the labels disappearing from the buttons because of a bug, or is my copy corrupted somehow? You can't ever know for sure! Those were the days.
Thanks for playing it - especially on real hardware!
Unfortunately, none of the glitches were intentional. Late on in the jam weird things started happening and I didn't have the time to figure out why! :D

(I'm not making fun here, I really have a lot of nostalgia for that experience, and have attempted to recreate it in my own games before.)
Really dig the hi-res EGA vibe and the old-school concept of what exploring a three-dimensional space should look like.

Big learning curve. Still enjoyable, though.
DOS flight sim. Looks like. Playing.
