My spritework always comes out looking like a 90s shareware game

My boy Jazz Jackrabbit could always use some love. He's from a shareware 2D platformer back in the 90s with one of the most badass soundtracks ever to touch a videogame, I think he'd look great in your style!

AT LEAST THERE IS CEDA CEDOVIC. A pretty solid freeware Mario clone themed around referencing and paying tribute to my favorite kind of media: weird and obscure bullshit that like 6 people know of. Levels are themed after serbian shareware games, bad java phone games, ect.

The Beta was loaded as shareware on school computers by the games club, so I first tried the game around when beds & hunger were added.

They also had Halo: CE with LAN multiplayer for the entire school, it was rad (teachers weren't privy to it)

When i was still in school I thought of myself as playing the shareware version of life. I wasn't sure if i'd keep playing when i had to pay, but I have for 6 years. But the cost is low so far, if there's a price hike then i might reconsider, don't wanna play if it's not worth it

Another game in the sorta-educational genre, Alive Software's Animal Quest.
Pick one of several animals, and avoid predators and devour prey. This is the shareware version, so you only get the Forest Animals pack, however.

I don't think many people know about this one. It was just a shareware release to Aminet and his website. But it's mad fun if you can get four players together. We used to do a lot of this one, MineRunner (his LodeRunner clone), Gauntlet 2, and Dynablaster or Master Blaster 2. 😎

(which is a ton of shareware software + one game.
this is really cool and old school. it's fun to stumble across sites that still do this homebrew personal software and host it themselves)
