![]() Luckily there's stuff like the humble indy bundle, those are a great boon to starting over a new games collection. ![]() Linux is not perfect by any means, but it is way beyond what windows will ever be.Īll I can hope for now is more people making games that run on linux systems and I'm all good. I regret ever having spent time with that damned windows system, that pile of crap has caused me so much grief, such an unforgivable amount of annoyance I will never ever touch it again, not even to play my large collection of games, *** that ***, it's just not worth it. The game was re-released as freeware in 2004. Tyrian was programmed by Jason Emery, illustrated by Daniel Cook, and its music composed by Alexander Brandon and Andras Molnar. Then (just a few years ago) I was given linux by a friend, I started with ubuntu, bought a few books on the linux system, tried some other distributions and found crunchbang. After several years of dormancy, a new release of Tyrian was made in 2000 by a company called XSIV Games, partially to promote another product in development a game called Pretzel Pete which, as far as I can tell, was never developed into more than a demo. Tyrian is a vertical scrolling shooter computer game developed by Eclipse Software and published in 1995 by Epic MegaGames. I have used it all the way up until even windows 7. I was actually taught by my dad on how to use dos, I grew up on even older systems, with hardware that actually used caset (sp?) tapes as we now use hard disks, damn that time was awesome! Back when it still had dos running underneath it and everything would be unrecognizable to modern windows users. Those are the originals, simply cut them up any way you like and make sure they get a transparent background, and turn them around so they face north, and that's all there is to it.ĭon't ask me how to do it on a windows system, I don't work with those programs, I'm running linux and use GNU Image Manipulation Program (GIMP for short) What I've done here is the simplest thing in the world, take this link: Plus all this stuff is rather small, I think I'll post bigger versions of it at some later time, right now I'm working of Master of Orion 2 ships, there's more then 300 of the *** things and some are playing difficult. There are still a few ships that I need to do and there's quite a bit of content that I find unusable so I didn't include it. I just cut and modify the original sprites from the game to make them usable for starfarer.
