Quake 3 2600 Adventure

Posted by chrisd on from the no-ti4600-needed-for-this-map dept.

Bill Kendrick writes "Quake's 3D graphics too realistic for you? Why not try this map, which reproduces the classic Atari 2600 game of blocky dragons and castles, Adventure!" I especially like the models for the dragons.

    I can't wait til he replaces the Quake gun with the "-" 'sword' from the game.

  2. New Tetris Quake engine? by zensonic · · Score: 4, Funny

    Haven't seen any announcements of this Tetris quake engine anywhere?

    Somebody has way too much time doing things like this. ;-)

  3. Nethack fans rejoice! by Jugalator · · Score: 5, Funny

    Finally, Quake has been brought to a level Nethack fans might actually enjoy.

    Whether it was brought up or brought down to that level, well, that's another question. :)

  5. Re:FSAA and still blocky gfx nooooo ;-) by richie2000 · · Score: 3, Funny
    see the yellow dragon less blocky...

    No problem. Just smear some grease on a pair of sunglasses and squint a bit. Voila - analog anti-aliasing! Works with any graphics card! Infinite resolution! Unlimited processing power! Cleans your teeth while you sleep! XP!

    I should patent this so no one else can abuse the technology...

  6. He's got the visuals... by zaren · · Score: 3, Funny

    but what about the audio? Will we be able to hear a simple *bloop* when picking up an item? How about the sound when killing a dragon with the sword? And I seem to recall an odd sound loop when running into certain things...

    I don't have Quake3 (sacrilege!), but I might just go get a copy after this map is finished :D
