Duke Nukems are still my favorite games ever. One of the first game I played multiplayer with two laptops. I was 12ish years old. First game was actually retaliator, but that aside. Level design, graphics, sounds and the atmosphere was groundbreaking those days. Wish I was that age again.

Me too! I learnt a lot about how games „work“ by using the level editor and using more and more of the advanced features. And playing your own worlds in 1vs1 serial linked multiplayer mode was a whole new experience.

Agreed, amazingly fun multiplayer experience. Also love Ion Fury, built in the same engine and having a satisfyingly tactical feel to it. What's interesting is the deep satisfaction with games from the 90s being more "tactile" isn't just about isometric games, it's in the shooters too. When did games get clippy (as in clipping through walls), squishy and plastic diminishing their feel?

Oops, meant to say tactile, not tactical.
