Played this back in the day as a kid. I would jump and panic every time an enemy was right behind a door. The sounds of the bots bring me back.

This game was pivotal in my first few years of PC gaming. What a wild ride. Making boot disks so I could have cd audio and mouse at the same time.

I used to play this game on an early VR headset. Descent on its own was already pretty nauseating. Add stereoscopic 3D and janky headtracking and puking was guaranteed. It was awesome!

I used to play with an Orb 360. Yeah, I was THAT guy.

Thank you for your sacrifice. XD This game teaches me that I sucks at free form 3D navigation. Like I am fine with Doom/Quake that has teleportation, but in Descent it’s floating camera so the world can be upside down and side ways, then my brain just become fried tofu when trying to escape the looping area.
