Tried Duke3d.  Really slow in Firefox.   :-[

And the keys don't seem to function.

Too bad, they have a nice selection.

Lol, They have Karnov.

I had the cdroms, and couldn't believe how bad the ports were.  They made those old Tiger handheld games look good by comparison.     :laugh_mini:

I'm assuming games running too fast or slow is a browser issue?

Yep.  And others aged really well.


Pretty much all those nostalgic games on Steam are tapping into that top 1%, instead of f'n Karnov.

I'd assume so.


Duke3d is a slideshow.


If you can download the images, you'd probably be better off just plugging them into Dosbox.
