Does anyone remember a very simple game where you give commands to a literal apple with arms, legs, and a face? For example, you type “run” and the apple would run. Sleep, eat, etc
Thanks! Great video!
I think Alec Guinness wins on the first voice acting in a game.
How to play it with a pc or a mac ?
Hey, I just found your channel, and I love what I'm seeing! This game was a really big deal to me, and I actually spot a little bit of my work in the video - the house archive being scrolled through around 7:45 is the one I compiled and hosted. I'm glad people are still getting some value out of this collection. After the game was open sourced, a port of it called Aerofoil was created, which can run on modern computers without an emulation layer. It works quite well, though converting old house files into a format usable by it is a bit of an ordeal, and it didn't work for all of the ones I tried. A project I want to do when I can find the time for it is to work through this entire house archive and get ALL of them successfully repacked into the Aerofoil-compatible format, and provide that as an alternate download for easier access. This game was something special, and it touched a lot of people. I had never seen that john calhoun interview before, and it was a real treat. I still have my game manual and CD in that same transparent case, though I don't remember having had a box that looked like that - I'm having trouble remembering now, but mine was either a different design with a white background, or maybe it didn't come in a box at all. So cool to see all of this. Thanks for sharing!
I've set up all three. I've also set up shapeshifter, a Mac emulator running inside WinUAE, an Amiga emulator.
It's only gay if the noses touch.
at 3:35, i am not that impressed by this one, seemed like a 70s style arcade game, in 1985, a friend of mine owned a mackintosh, which was about $8000, his father was an electric engineer, he could pay $50 for a game that had story and exploration and fight, which was so impressing. now known as rpg.
Wrote a few Mac Shareware games back in the day in Microsoft QuickBasic (compiler). It wasn't until I was at my grandparents in the big city of Atlanta that I could upload them to a BBS and get them out into the wild. Had some people mail or call me from my contact info in the About box to tell me the liked this or that game. I remember one of them I had made was a Milton Bradley Clone of Merlin in Hypercard, to learn Hypercard programming... and this woman wrote me to thank me so much, she had lost her Merlin. I still got my Merlin hanging on the wall as Applebee's wall art, along with my original Mac SE mobo that had it's ADB ports fried by lightning. I played all these games because I had pirated the entire Mac section of the software store I worked at back then, or downloaded them from the ATL BBS. I still got them all stashed away on a Powermac 9600 on the shelf here I haven't touched in... 30 years. I'd have to buy a new CMOS battery for it; I wonder if the SCSI drives will still spin up, or if the rubber in side has rotted to glue.
Works on LC :)

OMG! Dungeon of Doom! I think I spent half my summer in 86 playing that while watching Amuck In America on MTV!
This lep’s world has a cheap
Very cool video
So so many memories!
"Li k Me." It was so easy to be misunderstood back before they'd invented the letter C.
Gruz, thank you for recovering this old vid! this is a weird request, but, can you add this vid to your Classic Mac Games Episodes playlist? I archive all of your videos by playlist, had the unlisted version added manually, and would love to have this version in the playlist I monitor!
My brother and I, spent out several nights trying to end this marvelous 80’s arcade.
Dirt Bike looks like a dad of those Flash-based browser games.
I tried the steam version that have the original mac version but it didin't work 😕😥
I love how Macbugs is a combination of Asteroids and Centipede.
Feels weird to put Arkanoid, Prince of Persia, Tetris into a "Hidden Gems" list, but hey, it's a solid list of games. Thanks for sharing it.
What is the bracket your are using? Is that 3d printed?
AWSOME!!!
Mad Dark Castle skills! If you ever did a full playthrough of the game, I'd watch it all.
the fact you can downgrade these already weak mac mini to a 1.4ghz celeron is really funny
I was always impressed with early 68K Mac games. There was something inviting and creative to their 1bit graphics.
you must be from big city sir
The mac classic was my computer back in the days, it went with me from boarding school, back home and vice versa. We had a 'newspaper' about the going around in the school, i wrote the columns at the last page, and those were the most popular. I wrote them all on my mac classic, i learned about hypercard, typing, managing documents and play some old games! My favorite is called ShufflePuck, a quick reaction game, lot of fun to see all the characters ;)
I can’t get past the first two seconds in dark castle. But ya silicon beach team at San Diego were great. I remember when Future Splash came out and had a career as a flash developer to through out first half of the 2000’s.
Nice pickup! My first Mac was a Mac Plus with an external 800 Kb drive. I loved that thing. I had Oscar the Grouch in the Trash. Good times.
Great work on that Macintosh Plus, and great video! You playing Beyond Dark Castle just took me back to the late 1980s, when I played it on my Dad’s Macintosh 512K! It still looks and sounds fantastic! I played a lot of Arkanoid on it too. I don’t know if you’ve heard of a UA-cam channel called Adrian’s Digital Basement, but I know that he said that Macintosh Pluses don’t (usually) have bad capacitors, unlike other old black and white Macs. I don’t know why that is; maybe Apple switched to a different company or something.
yeah it doesn't use those pesky surface mount ones that leak all over. Been replacing some of those lately... Thank goodness Mac Plus / SE have solid caps from before the cap plague, they are pretty easy computers to repair!
@@insanelygruz That’s good to know.
I remember buying one brand new in 1989. With an ImageWriter. Paid $4000 bucks for the whole setup.
I really enjoy this channel, it's so much potential! Please consider getting old magazine shareware CD's and going through their strange offerings, i think you'd be great at it!
Another great video. Thank you.
This vid inspired me to get the old minty Mac plus out, hook up a blue scsi and play some flappy Mac. I also got one of those new meeeses off eBay a few months ago. Just tried it out for the first time. Guess there’s no chance getting one of those special Flappy Mac disks with source et? Would love to check it out in THINK C.
I'll put Flappy Mac source online in the future. I wrote so many comments to explain what everything does, it would be a good learning tool for someone starting out programming vintage Mac. Need time to sort it out first though so probably won't be till after my next game...
@@insanelygruz cool yeah that’s why I’d like to take a look. I used to write apps in THINK back in 1991. Just got it back on my Mac’s and was going to refresh my memory.
That's how Beyond Dark Castle played for me on a Mac Plus back in the day. The title screen and the intro animation always chugged. You've been spoiled by Mini vMac ;)
The music seemed a bit choppy too, caught me by surprise!
This Mac is so clean. It looks brand new. Very beautiful!
Heck yeah! I totally knew that the brightness knob was down at the beginning lol.
It was a little more complicated, moving the knob only jostled it enough to display a picture temporarily. Needed to re-solder a few places on the analog board to keep the display on!
@@insanelygruz classic cracked solder joints
Awesome! I just picked up a SE/30 compact mac from a local seller yesterday and I'm super excited to check it out over the weekend. I haven't owned a compact mac since my family swapped our old Mac Plus out for a pizza-box Centris 610 in the mid-90s, and I've been feeling pretty nostalgic for it lately. Your channel has been a great resource in rediscovering some of my old favorite games from that era. Kudos!
Hope you enjoy it! Had an SE/30 back in the day and it's the ultimate compact Mac for games!
Nice video. Nothing beats gaming on a vintage Mac. These games are so unique, you can't really compare them to anything on other platforms.
newfangled fork-resistant tape
Might need to lube that keyboard and maybe even some damping foam to quiet it down. Loved the video though! I would love to own one of these, but I know I should just stick with the MiSTer.
The Mac Plus is about 10% slower than the SE and Classic.
I thought only the SCSI was slower
