@PiecesOfKate Couple of fun facts about Zak the Maniac 'cos I can't shut up:
1) It's the only track on the album that's technically #NotDOS. I've never been too keen on the DOS versions, so I took the MIDI data from the C64 versions instead.
2) I also sampled the drums and whooshes straight from the C64 games themselves. They're buried in the mix if you listen hard.
3) My bandmate and I are big Type O Negative fans so I had him do some Type O guitar slides as an homage.

It's such a shame that only the first two Worms games had cutscenes. They were pretty funny. Here's a cutscene from Worms 2 (1997): #NotDOS
Doom95 [Doom 95/Doom for Windows 95] (Windows 9x, 1995) #NotDOS

Localization side effects: #NotDOS
UK version of Westwood's Monopoly CD-ROM includes support for international customization, so all of the digitized Chance and Community Chest cards have been replaced with text, even if you select "American" cards in the options. 😥
Windows 3.x version of Sierra's King's Quest VI: Heir Today, Gone Tomorrow (1993) features high resolution animated character portraits compared to the VGA ones in the DOS version. #DOSGaming #NotDOS
