Forever hungry, dark-clad and prideful, the Wolves of Askedon plagued my childhood dreams. Onto them I projected my fears and terrors. And yet, to advance in The City of the Dark Obelisk, one must brave them. A new article in my series on this obscure RPG is out...
For anyone curious, my series on The City of the Dark Obelisk ended up putting me in touch with an expert in PC software preservation, and this has led to some interesting developments. I wrote an article to give you a general overview of the “investigation”

As promised @Haematinon @signalspikedev: the good news is our anonymous friend sent me OBELISK.PAK from 0.19, and I could finally start a new game. The bad news… well, watch to the end 😢 p.s. enable the audio on the clip! X turns it off by default for me.

Take my money If it's not enough, I'm also willing to part from my firstborn and a kidney Pleaseeeeeeee?
Diablo II in space (Starblo). Blizzard killed Starblo in 2003, the unreleased project made after Diablo II. Now we can just build things that were taken from us.

An ideal of beauty, the Elf of the River reminds me of Jung’s Anima. But perhaps that resemblance is itself another of CODO’s false paths. Some things in Askedon seem designed to be misread. If you want to read my retrospective series on this obscure game, you can... 1/2
A lot of people have written to me about similar problems trying to find a playable copy of CODO. I mentioned this in the article series, but quite a few of the surviving CD-ROMs seem to be damaged or partially unreadable. Luckily, I still have my own copy and it reads fine. 1/2

Hey @Haematinon and @signalspikedev hectic couple of weeks, sorry! I finally dug out the CODO 0.18 CD, here's a quick video. New game asks for a file that is not on the disk. Would either of you mind checking whether your release copies have it?

I can't find mine (I'm sure I have it somewhere, ready for being framed), but I'd still like to spend a moment to appreciate how cool the Pentium II was.

They mocked you for getting 64GB of RAM when "you didn't need them". They mocked you for getting a 5090 at 2.5K. Who's laughing now?

Let's restart everything a bit here. Just fetched this from. The archive. Thinking to clean it up, frame it, and put it on the wall. Who had one?
