Ranger Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 I absolutely LOVE the descent series - they rocked back in the day and (after Commander Keen) were some of my favorite PC games as I was introduced to it growing up. Anyway, it's open source now and the Mac version now works with the new Intel processors! I haven't tested it yet (although I plan to). Anyone care to test? http://www.descent2.de/introframes.html Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/8211-descent-2-x86-free/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

karx11erx Posted February 3, 2006 Share Posted February 3, 2006 You can find the game data on applexnet.com, so I've been told. You may need to search a little, I don't know. The proper link to my Descent site is http://www.descent2.de, not the one used for the above image.

LOL I think you are referring to the fact that this is a 10 year old game and find yourself very humorous. #1 I think you know better. #2 This is a nostalgia project and appreciated by those who loved (and still love) this old game.
