Magic Carpet (1994)
Magic Carpet Plus (1995)
Magic Carpet 2 (1995)
I feel these were omitted for some reason, or just simply forgotten about. I'm also suprised it's not even on 3dsl for so long.
- it's 3d, in first person
- there's shooting, you can do the actual shooting
- multiplayer is supported (at least for the sequel)
- you shoot the heck out of monsters into balls
- you're NOT ON THE GROUND (this is probably the killer in which is why it's not on the site)
- it's the best looking 3d game of 1994 (imo)
- it flopped because Doom crushed everything else at the time
- the sequel is more of the same (like Doom 2 is to Doom)
- arcadeish physics, not a simulation (how do you simulate a fictional magic carpet vehicle anyhow?)
- MIDI music, I don't recall any CD tracks. Magic Carpet 2 had native AWE32 support with soundfonts though (and this can not be emulated currently)
