Space Cadet?
right? and what in the fuck is purble place?
My childhood
A fever dream.
TBH I’d forgotten this game existed till it was brought up in another thread a long while back. I probably only played like an hour of it out of curiosity, but yeah Space Cadet was my jam. This YouTuber has a pretty interesting vid on the game Purble Place.
Came here to say, if it’s not including Space Cadet it’s trash
These are vista games, these icons are the pinnacle of frutiger aero, space cadet was xp only.
It’s available as a Flatpak, lol.
Shit goes dumb hard too. Got my highest score ever a few months back and I used to play this all the time as a kid
Relive the dream:

You forgot about Hover! which was bundled with Windows 95.
Remember HoverRace?
Chips challenge on win98 was awesome as a kid.
chip’s challenge is iconic
Yes! Ahem, as a kid. Yes.

But not exclusive to windows.
It’s on Steam!
Oh, only on cd edition. No wonder I don’t know it. We bought our Windows 95 on 26 floppies.
Looks like the autolinking misses the
!
at the end of your link: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hover!Wow I forgot about this entirely. I actually really liked it, even if I never played more than an hour at a time.
Pinball?
Pinball was ported, I can install from the aur now.
It says “PC exclusive” not " Windows exclusive". Linux PCs are still PCs.
Don’t forget Haiku.
Wait, whaaaat!!
There is a ported version for 3DS, lol.
I don’t like that Windows 7 is old enough to unironically be called a classic.
Windows 7 is 16 years old.
Classic cars are at least 20 years old but not older than 45 years…
It’s nearly there
I mean in software terms it’s ancient. It’s also the last mainstream OS which was popular before phones became the defacto target device of choice for every new software application.
What are those older than 45 years?
Oldtimers I guess
Maybe vintage?
You forgot the all time classic Dependency Resolution, and the psychological thriller “I fucked up my bootloader”.
Some one actually grew up on Vista? I thought that was a myth
besides the objectively best PC exclusive is super Tux.
No love for Jezzball?
SuperTux, SuperTuxKart, 0 A.D, Xonotic, Sonic RoboBlast…
SuperTuxKart works on Switch!
FreeCell is my jam
Where’s Skifree?
Eaten by a Yeti
Whenever I see the Purble eyes icon I think of that Zoombini educational game.
A crime they were replaced by hot garbage
Modern windows solitaire has adds snd levels and stuff. I mean come on, give me a break. And minesweeper isn’t preinstalled. You need admin rights and I don’t have them on my work laptop which is the only windows computer I use
There are modded XP versions of all the classic Windows games that work in modern Windows. Look into those.
King just released Solitaire, so I guess it’s not exclusive anymore
I played this pick up stick one growing up on our 97, but I don’t know if that was exclusive.
