It's nice to have options! Music from the classic action-puzzle game Supaplex (1991) on an AdLib, Roland MT-32, and PC Speaker. 💾🔊🎵

1. What does this mean for me? After October 14, 2025, Microsoft will no longer provide free software updates from Windows Update, technical assistance, or security fixes for Windows 10. What can I do with my old computer? Trade it in or recycle it with local organizations.

  Kinetic Worm Dimension v1.11
  
  Kinetic Worm Dimension is based on the well-known classic game "Python" or "Snake" and is its three-dimensional expansion. The game space, also called a level, in KW is a combination of planes, specially oriented and connected to each other, due to which the worm can crawl from one plane to another, moving in three independent dimensions. The player's task is to control the worm, collecting energy charges that appear in different places of the level. By absorbing charges, the worm increases its length. At the same time, the worm should not collide with obstacles or crawl on itself, or go beyond the boundaries of the game space, where there is emptiness. After absorbing the required number of charges, a special symbol appears on the level - an exit, which allows the worm to move to the next level. The player is given a certain amount of time to complete each level. If it expires and the worm does not have time to reach the exit, it dies. If the worm does not manage to reach the charge within a certain time, the charge disappears and appears in a new place.

It is such a simple idea, and it works totally as intended - something as simple and accessible as Snake instantly becomes too complicated to quickly master. 😅

And here's Kinetic Worm Dimension in action. It's more difficult than it appears to be.

I know Viktor Antonov was known for many things, but for me the biggest impact of his work was seeing the very distinct Eastern European environments of Half-Life 2 for the first time. At the time you just didn't see these kinds of things depicted realistically in major games. And with me being a fresh immigrant at the time, it felt special.

1. A window of Microsoft Word for an old version of Windows. A ridiculous number of optional toolbars are enabled and docked at the top, left, right, and bottom of the window, leaving only a small view at the center for the actual document. What an old-school aesthetics.

1. A screenshot from the Terminaor fist person shooter "Future Shock" from 1995: The image shows a first-person perspective view. The scene depicts a futuristic, neon-lit dance floor of a club. A shotgun is centered in the foreground. The dance floor is a checkerboard pattern of red, yellow, and blue squares. The player's health bar is shown in the lower right. The word "TECH NOIR" is displayed on a sign above the player. Partially provided by @altbot, generated using Gemini

1. The box art for the Infocom game "Suspect" features a detailed pen-and-ink drawing of a diverse group of suspicious-looking characters. Their faces are prominently displayed, each with unique expressions and attire, including a gorilla, a person in a pith helmet, a masked figure, and someone in a headscarf. A man with dark hair and a stern expression is featured prominently on the right. The title "Suspect" is written in large, bold red letters at the top. A tagline below reads, "You're not sure who's who. But one thing is certain. Someone is dead. And now they're pointing fingers at you." The bottom of the box shows Infocom's logo and system compatibility information for IBM PC, PCjr, XT, AT, and MS-DOS. The game is labeled as Interactive Fiction, Mystery, and Advanced Level.

1. The video shows a short clip from a video game. It opens with a low-poly, cartoonish figure resembling a small, green alien or creature emerging from a doorway. It has a pointed hat and what appears to be a long, thin neck. It moves with jerky, unnatural motions towards a man with red hair, who is seen from behind. The man is wearing a green jacket and teal pants. The man turns abruptly as the creature nears, revealing a somewhat startled expression on his face. He has a mustache. The creature is no longer visible. The video ends with the man facing the camera, seemingly in a state of alarm or surprise. There is no audio in the video.

1. A dark-themed download selection screen shows options for various operating systems: Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, iOS, Raspberry Pi, FreeBSD, NetBSD, Haiku OS, and Consoles. There's also an "Other" option. Below, text explains that the system couldn't automatically determine the correct download and instructs users to select their OS from the tabs or compile from source code if their OS isn't listed. Finally, under "Other downloads," MS-DOS, Classic Mac OS (PPC), and Classic Mac OS (68k) are listed with a note that these versions are slow and lack multiplayer support.
