Hyperoid a.k.a. SDLRoids

Screenshots!

Back when I was in school, I had a really nice game in my 80286 computer, under Windows 3.1. Yes, it was 15 years ago… The game was Hyperoid, by Edward Hutchins. When I got my first Pentium with Windows 95, I longed that game… and the 3.1. version didn’t work completely OK in it. Anyway I played… then found Hyperoid95. I even recompiled it, to add firepower (the author of this version cut the fire speed). It turns out that a X version exists, xhyperoid… and a newer version, SDLRoids is what I was looking for. Improved add-ons, more options, MacOs binaries. Sweet old times!
