Oh my goodness! I just discovered two old games I wrote back in 1996, and was rather pleased to find they were both playable using DosBox :) - This one is called Flagz, and you had to collect all the flags as quickly as you could! It used to run on a 66Mhz PC with 2 megs of ram. I coded it in Turbo pascal and assembly language. All graphics and sound libraries were written in assembly directly accessing the graphics and sound hardware, etc... Even the graphics were hand drawn in my own home coded graphics package! It's amazing when you think back to what you had to go through to achieve this sort of thing back then ;)
