Wasn't this on 98? I don't recall the xp theme going with this.

It's on many distros.

Honestly, the tank battle game or some Buddy Holly would be way more nostalgia bait than Space Cadet.

I played the 1994/5 version. Maybe you played the original?

Yea there are a ton of versions. Lode Runner and Lemmings were the shit. Plenty of versions of both. Lemmings even had a 3D one. lol Don't remember if it was official or a fan project, though.

What was that game called!? I forgot the name and have been trying to find it for years!

Hehehe

Yeah it's hard kind of to find because there were a ton of them... I played soooo much of this. Came on the same install pack as battle chess and sim city i think...

Thank you so much!

I definitely played Mad Monks Revenge judging by the gameplay description. Now just gotta find out where to acquire it and if I can get it to run on Linux :)

Edit: Well that was easy to find, a rewrite for Windows, Mac and Linux! https://mmr.quarkrobot.com/
