I saw the commander keen topic and it made me think of an old game I used to play on my x85 with the 5.25" floppy. willy the worm. This game was fun. I found a screen shot of it here.
I never beat that game, I'm looking for a copy now so I can beat it finally after a 20 year lapse biggrin.gif

I used to have that game long ago too, (not 20 years ago, but--)

That was a really hard game! I never beat the first level... blink.gif

HOLY CRAP! I used to have that game. There was one called "willy" and another called "ed willy". Both were really glitchy on my old IBM (8088 Processor). I got them both from one of those crummy disks you used to be able to get in those attic computer shops that had like 10 games on them.

mrRobinson, you can download the game here: http://www.dosgamezo...uit=info&id=177

You may need some MAJOR moslo type action to get it working properly though. wink.gif

Good luck in finally beating the game! smile.gif

Hmmmm. I downloaded the game and it's pretty unplayable on my machine. I may have to go to my parents' garage and fish out my old 386 to run this puppy.

Too bad.
