We will apply a technique call sundown when shutting down the site which means that the forums have been put on read-only which the ability to log-in, sign guest books and send PMs will remain for another 2 weeks. |

joepie91: I'm a pretty big dos game fan |
01:43
🔗
|
joepie91 |
DFJustin: alright... the game I'm thinking of, as far as I can (very vaguely) remember it, was a turn-based game with floating gray-ish platforms (tiles) above a black void |
01:43
🔗
|
joepie91 |
it had wizards and druids I'm pretty sure, although I can't remember the exact gameplay mechanics |
01:43
🔗
|
joepie91 |
it had some scenery elements, but the tile layout was very present |
01:44
🔗
|
joepie91 |
an isometric-ish view, not sure if really isometric or just looking at it from the front but a higher angle |
01:44
🔗
|
joepie91 |
