Apogee shareware model would set the stage for early 90s PC gaming with Wolfenstein 3D, and Doom to benefit.

The platforming mechanics aged like milk btw.

Those games made me want to get a real pogo stick. I still have it lying around somewhere.

I think we only had the shareware version, not the full one. I remember the screenshots from the full version when you completed it, and really wanted to play the rest!

I honestly didn’t play any non-RPGs on the PC until a couple of years ago.

I finally tried Commander Keen after it was compared to Nintendo Super Mario Bros 3.

It did not age like Super Mario Bros 3. At all.
