Magic 320 x 240. I play Quake for windows
I have a wonderful retro computer. Which I restore to working state. I bought it as not working. And repair it. And now I play it! I play at Quake for windows. From the last attempt. I go fast along the lots of levels.
So, I start it sad. I stuck in very beginning, for he first attempt. And I was doing circle after circle. I am playing without sound right now. Yes, I, also, had thought, that Quake without sound - it is boring. Well, maybe, it is not enough of music and sounds. But, well, you know, it is a retro effect. And without sound it is, also, good way to play. It is rather good game process. It is, also, interesting!
And, I was walking a long time at the start levels. I remember, that Cthulhu big door. Which is bigger than you about several times. And, I, always, return to big hall. I never get it where to go. So, I do not understand, that point. I am playing with exciting cool trash format 320 x 240. I think that this way you need to play Quake as a real thing. Without any smooth effects or high definition. Maybe, it is a thing about a resolution? Dark! And, well, you know, you cannot understand anything. Often little walls are made with pixels. I am, already, forget that pixel horror. About a good ideas about these words. Someplace, something Quake it is like a horror movie. Or atmosphere is such gothic. Cthulhu is about this.
So, this is a trick, there are two passages there. And you need to go to small one. So, I did not notice it, all the time. As I understand now. So, I enter it. And next, I easy to go without problems somewhere up to level 5. And I remember level number 3. This is necropolis or this way something. I write it by memory. As a gamer. And so artistic way.
And this level it is so creepy. And I was interested into this. About a point, that to do my own trash small game based on this level. Something short. As a little demo. But now I do not have skills yet.
This is like castle. And swamp. Brick walls. And swamp. There are lots of dead walkers there. Full creep. As a real thing. All these dead they scream. I play without sound. But memory just like makes a sound for me, sometimes. And you cannot kill them at all. They fall. And later they rise again. And it adds more of scary points.
And next one or two levels. I run them fast. Even do not notice. And take into account, that I was lost at the second level. So, I am very exciting about this point. One of the levels. Dark castle is a title. And yes, I also remember a knights, they attack you. Dark castle – it is such a style, I say. For several levels.
And I am at the stage. Where you enter the mirror. Yes, these are connected with dark magic, I am sure. And it is a big room there. And such a white monster. As a snowman. This is like a boss. So, I stopped there. I catch a key there. And run from this monster. With claws. And yes, as idea, I have a rocket launcher in my hands. But I, already, try to destroy it, several attempts. But, I failed! Well, at least, I can run. And it is a circle style of level. Always it is possible to return to this room with monster.
What can I say. I like a lot to play with resolution 320 x 240. And with my Windows 2000 computer. With such huge pixels graphics. And everything so dark there. This is exciting game! Which you can play cool with 320 x 240. I even do not see the reason to change the resolution. It is possible to rise it up to 640 x 480.
Or even up to 1024 x 768. I guess, it has even this. But it is everything so small to become. All menus. Well, graphics, yes. It changes a little. So again it looks as a new. But I like really a lot these 320 x 240. And I will play with this format.
Atmosphere of black magic or dark magic. And very such pixelated walls. How nice to remember all of these again. Many years ago, I played certain this kind of Quake. And so, i think it is a horror and atmosphere this game has. Some kind of mystics! With 320 x 240.
Playing little games. From time to time i like to play videogames. And write about it.
