MS-DOS Crypt - Skyroads

[@AnnCatsanndra]

Oh man I remember stumbling across Skyroads when I was young on a red "200 Crazy Games" Shareware disc or something and I freaking loved playing that game! I had no idea Skyroads was a remake of Kosmonaut!

Ah yes, basically the first estonian game ever (not finnish, as someone guessed in the chat - close, but not quite). Most of the people involved in making the game later also went to create Kazaa and then Skype. And became real heckin' rich.

I think I played this when I was a child? Holy shit this is unlocking memories

Hey I wanted to say I love your videos. The 1st video I saw if yours was 11 years ago for the 2012 super mario lost levels race

I loved this even though I'm not sure I ever got past the third or fourth level. I think my computer at the time might've been faster than intended for this game. That's my excuse anyway.

To answer your question about the two timers: Fuel goes down proportional to distance and isn't really a timer so much as a mechanic to make the blue Resupply titles mandatory in some levels, O2 is actually a timer to set a minimum speed for the level. You didn't notice the difference because you nearly always went at max speed even when that was a bad idea. Oh also I believe the Jump-O-Master is a mechanic that makes some jumps that would miss platforms get adjusted slightly? It's not exactly clear ingame how it works.

[@PsychedelicEyeball]

Makes sense, thanks for the clarification. Also I guess I didn't play the game long enough to get to a level where Jump-O-Master was a thing.

[@Thatwasademo]

@@PsychedelicEyeball The Jump-O-Master activated several times during the stream, actually. It's really subtle in the gameplay (which certainly doesn't help with understanding what it does...), but if you look at the little screen for it sometimes it says "in use" instead of "idle".

I also had this one! Ok so now you're going to tell me you own Kapture 3d too 😅😅😅😅

[@PsychedelicEyeball]

Sorry, never heard of that one.

[@seamushadron]

@@PsychedelicEyeball It's a small capture the flag with 2 players split screen playing together on the keyboard, with traps and obstacles.. i only know about the shareware version, had a lot of fun with my bro when we were kids xD
