A downloadable game

I was going to make a full game for this jam, but with final exams and the holidays, I lost the motivation to finish it. I don't want to let my work go to waste so I'm releasing the current state of the engine. You can drive around freely in a 3D environment. Collision is very broken and you might get stuck on walls or fall through the floor. Pressing R cycles render distance, arrow keys to move, and Escape to quit. Runs natively on DOS. Tested on FreeDOS on real hardware, and in DOSBox-X. Built with Allegro 4. Sources might be released in the future after I clean them up.

Install instructions

Runs only on DOS. FPU required. 486 or better preferred. Use DOSBox, one of its forks, or a computer with DOS installed. Might require a DPMI server running if not already installed on your system. You can get CWSDPMI.EXE at https://sandmann.dotster.com/cwsdpmi/ and place it next to the executable.

Hi, is it ok to distribute this game on the DOS Game Jam Demo Disc? It will be a freely downloadable ISO image with games submitted to the DOS Game Jam with a small menu to select games.

It's ok if it's unfinished and WIP, still a nice tech demo to show off recent developments for DOS :)

yeah that's cool with me
