Together with @cancel, we made a version of Oquonie that works on Windows. It should work all the way back to win95. Could anyone with a Windows machine try this out for us?

I'm about to go to sleep, but, just for you, I will actually try this on Windows 95 for you tomorrow.

@neauoire @cancel Both Oquonie Classic(Windows64) and Oquonie(Win95+) work but Oquonie(Win95+) gets a windows warning message

@neauoire @cancel Starts blindingly fast for me! Works great, sound cuts out after about a minute though.

@theneko @cancel thanks for trying it out, strange that the sound cuts out. Which windows do you use?

@neauoire @cancel Windows 10 19044.2728, pretty much the very latest version.

@theneko @cancel did it stop, or did you go talk to the speakerphone NPC in the archive room of the office, or the turntable NPC in the lobby?

@neauoire @cancel Yep, recreated the bug (?) by talking to the speakerphone.

@neauoire @cancel Whoa, cool. It runs fine on

- Windows® 10 IoT™ Enterprise™ LTSC™ 21H2 (real hardware)
- Windows XP SP3 (real hardware)
- Windows 2000 (VMware)

On NT 4.0 (VMware) it draws the first frame and I hear some audio, then it freezes up. It works when I disable the VM's audio device and reboot.

@neauoire @cancel Doesn't work on Windows 95 4.00.950 B (the errors are "One of devices, connected to the system is not working" and "File OQUONIE.EXE is linked to a missing export USER32.DLL:TrackMouseEvent").

@neauoire @cancel just for fun I tried it on Windows 3.11 + Win32s, and unfortunately it does not work; indeed it turns out it would need to be a relocatable exe (stephan.win31.de/w32slist.htm#), but who knows if there's any toolchain that can actually output it.
