Okay, think I'm FINALLY happy with the site renovations. Blood shrine will also eventually be replaced with a shrine directory for both it and any other shrines I make in the future. I am going back to playing Mac games now.

What a nice review, as always! I never understood the springboard mechanic either: I just hoped for the best and jumped LOL

Finally fantastic and thoughtful review! The instakill bits got to me a bit you are much more patient than me. It's SUCH a 90 sequel. (Also in no way is my site more professional than yours!)

Also would love to read what you think about the expansion one day, I have never played that.

Any time I see a review for a game on a computer I haven't used myself, I always end up wanting that computer a lot more (vintage computers are my favourite retro gaming platforms), and you absolutely did that for me with the Archimedes with the Lander/Zarch reviews. V2000 also sounds delightfully playful with its mechanics and I'm interested in checking it out down the line!

Thank you I'm glad to have had an effect! There is a great and easy emulator called Arculator but yes, no subsitute for having a go on the old clunky hardware again.

I'm a little out of it tonight so apologies if the review needs some editing. Will give it another read over when I'm less tired ahaha. Small review of a small game to start out my return. Next review will be a big one I've been putting off far too long!

Great review, I have been on a weird-mouse-control-game bender recently so I looked up a video to see what you meant about the controls. Weird!

Also, you reminded me of shareware game Rats! in the 1990s which had an even more extreme female orgasm sound effect, which my parents were not amused by. What is it with these old devs?

@p7uen I've actually seen Rats! before myself, and yeah, the sound effect there REALLY goes overboard even compared to Crystal Quest and Apeiron. Something I've noticed when looking into classic Mac games is just how developers could get away with whatever they wanted in self-published shareware.

(addendum: I say it's "something I've noticed" as if I only found out recently, but in actuality I've known it for the past 23 years due to a time when I accidentally stumbled upon Barney Blaster as a kid and got horrified by the cute purple dinosaur being gorily torn to shreds on the title screen)

We just got over 100k views, thank you so much! Even if that's small compared to heavy hitting Youtube channels and the like, I'm honestly so happy I can share my nerdy passions with this many people. This is honestly more attention than I expected such a niche site would get! New Mac review is also in the works now, expect more updates in the coming days!

Small update today. Removed the listed computer specs from the Mac reviews page, and in its place put a link to a new page with the specs of ALL of my PowerMacs, with photos and more information than before! https://overclockworked.neocities.org/macos/powermacs/

I'm thinking I might like to do some other pages along this line for non-game related aspects of retro Macs. E.g. maybe a page discussing the differences between all the different versions of Mac OS from System 1 to OS 9.2.2, or the different processors Apple has used in Macs over the year (Motorola, PowerPC, Intel, Apple Silicon)

Loved your Unreal review, the forgotten brother of 90s FPS. Also I had no idea that Source was derived from idTech, that is fascinating! Look forward to your return, in your own time!

It's my 29th birthday! While I fight off the usual existential crisis of growing older, I'll again thank everyone who has followed over the last couple of years I've been working on this website for. In addition, relevant to the website, for my birthday I'm getting a G4 Mac Mini! It's three times as powerful as my current G4 Cube, so this will allow for reviews of more recent and more graphically demanding Mac games.

There's a bunch of weird and interesting early Mac OS X games that I've been interested in covering but didn't have the specs for until now. Did you know for instance that the first Unity game ever made was a Mac exclusive? More weird vintage Mac trivia inbound when I start reviews up again.

Thank you! Your post on jank games was enough to convince me to follow on the spot there, ahaha. Also hell yeah based Blood enjoyer.

And with that, I'm now going on hiatus. Had some bad writers block with this review in spite of having a great time with the game. I'm also tired, so apologies if I left in a bunch of errors I didn't notice. Will likely return to review more Mac games in a month or two, once my mental health hopefully settles down and once the next batch of Mac games I ordered online arrive in the mail. Thanks for reading, everyone!

I saw this on the global feed and even though I've never heard of Unreal before, this was such an interesting read! I'm not experienced with this whole genre of gaming, but I thought that your writing style made it seem really familiar! Unreal looks like such a cool game!

Thank you very much for reading! Always happy when I can shed some light on games others may not be familiar with like that.

I've played 100+ hrs of UT99 online but I don't think I've ever touched the campaign mode of it or the previous version so this was my first experience with it. Good review and has convinced me to start a playthrough!

@the-game-hoard Hope you enjoy it! Unreal Tournament 99 is a future review I intend to get to as well, as I like what little I've played of it a lot.

If the navbar looks broken in the Blood Shrine, that's because I had to update the css file for it and that takes time to refresh if the old css file is still in your cache.
