 Admin Reborn Gumby Posts: 11126 | The DOS port was Level 9's last attempt to stay afloat, making it quite an interesting historical artefact as well. If you cover it, be sure to invite me, I'll talk for three hours straight  Posted on Mastodon ----- Now you see the violence inherent in the system! |

Admin Reborn Gumby Posts: 11126 | It's not blockbuster level, but then, what is from those times (save for Mario)? I post something not particularly profound about It Came From the Desert, whoosh, a dozen responses. At least within certain circles, this game still inspires. I guess some day, I'll (seriously) play the second one and watch that movie...

Guest | It's produced by a Finnish team I think. The rights are currently owned by Starbreeze which isn't Finnish but I have a vague memory there was some connection there. I just feel like someone really wanted to do something with that specifically for personal reasons. It's not like it's a blockbuster IP.  Posted on Mastodon |

Guest | I’ve seen it and not a huge surprise but it’s bad. The goofy thing is that it basically has nothing to do with the property other than having giant ants so like, why use the IP? It’s not exactly a really famous game Posted on Mastodon |

Admin Reborn Gumby Posts: 11126 | it was on TV here a some time ago. I recorded it, but haven't had the courage to actually watch it. So it is just sitting here on my hard drive. Posted on Mastodon ----- Now you see the violence inherent in the system! |

Admin Reborn Gumby Posts: 11126 | Yes, the whole publication strategy is weird. You need the original game to build bootable disks, so it's not standalone. Yet, they put a 2 in the title. Posted on Mastodon ----- Now you see the violence inherent in the system! |

Guest | That cover is super confusing to me. I thought it was like a data disk expansion for It Came From The Desert 2 but no, it's an expansion for It Came From the Desert 1. Posted on Mastodon |

Guest | Nope! It took a long time! I once was scarfing down a bowl of cereal and looked down to see it was full of ants. Really gross! Posted on Mastodon |
