Okay at the moment there is no current source for this awesome game but i have emailed 3D Realms aka Apogee software. I have no clue if this is C++ or if it has windows and althose other things that might not make a great port. Â*Anyways the reason why i am asking is this is a great game. Â*This game is something like a Mario Kart copy except your using animals. Its a little more childish. But it was one of the games i used to use on my 486 computer and i bet a lot of others used to play it aswell. Anyways here is a screenshot and i was to lazy to look around for anymore screenshots cause well its kind of impossible. If anyone else finds great screenshots congradulations. Â*I hope people arent pissed about this post i just thought i would put it out cause i am hoping to see a email from Apogee soon or another person who was linked to by Apogee.

I remember both 3d realms and apogee. my first computer games were Raptor: Call of the Shadows and Jazz Jack Rabbit. Both from apogee i think. 3d realms made Shadow Warriors, which introduced me to more modern 3d shooters. I also remember this game from apogee where you were likea monk and you shot lightning at people....

anyways, I think both the companies are dead. I doubt we will get the source.

You no mess with the Lo- Wang.

I remember both 3d realms and apogee.3DRealms IS Apogee, or rather, a subdivision (more specifically a label) of Apogee. (Along with Pinball Wizards)
