I was just thinking about Excel Saga last night, what a weird coincidence! I don't have a mac, but Centipede is so fun; I might have to play soon.

@miela583 Centipede's always been my favourite of those early Atari arcade games by far, felt like just one more step closer in the development of the genre to the vertically scrolling shoot-em-ups of the 90s I love, plus the trackball control feels so good

Thank you! I always get a little worried my site is a bit aesthetically plain when I see how pretty and detailed the themes of other people's pages are ahaha.

Incredible site! We share a lot of common ground. I actually just started rewatching Cardcaptor Sakura last night and vibe with a lot of what you said about gender and such. Also genuinely shocked to meet another Mac game collector here!

I just had to follow someone who was into old mac stuff. If you wanna check out something really unique, go give Alice: An Interactive Museum, and also Gadget a look. Both are Myst before Myst, and both are super strange. Some of the rarer games in my collection.

Will be sure to add them to my backlog! There's a few other of that style of surreal first-person early-pre-rendered adventure game I want to get to as well. Is it okay for me to add your site's 8831 button to my site? Trying to build up a selection of buttons of mutual sites.

Wow what a find, I have never heard of this but it sounds surprisingly deep for what I would have dismissed as a throwaway clone. Great review thank you!.
Update: I have been playing the download you linked to at the end, great fun! It feels like brain training to play something so like Bomberman but with those little changes to mechanics.
@p7uen First time playing I only made it to level 20 before game overing and was really thinking "wow this game is impossible" until I started thinking about those changes and how they effect strategies and then it properly clicked with me on that second attempt and became a ton of fun. Glad you enjoyed the review and the game!
