Holiday season retro fun: dosdeck.com/ brings back MS-DOS games in browsers. No installation necessary.

Limited selection for now, but I promise some happily wasted hours with the original Commander Keen, among others!

@dangillmor Fascinating. So, 16+ years ago I ran a website called Liberated Games. My goal was to collect the games which writers/publishers had given explicit permission could be free, and thereby ask others to consider doing the same. Sometimes it was just source code, sometimes it was assets too.

Here's an old Reddit post which backs me up: reddit.com/r/gaming/comments/6

Anyway, to see the term I coined back then, "Liberated Games", is kind of neat.

@dangillmor Epic Pinball and ... Lemmings! I haven't played that since I donated my Amiga to a museum!
