Hover!

Anyone remember this game? It came with Windows 95 and was a pretty good way to pass time. They're working on it now and you can play it on your browser! It's pretty fun.

I think it's multiplayer or multiplayer is coming soon.

Oh man, I played the crap out of this back in the day. It's freeware and all over the internet now.

There was a guy a few years ago making something called "Hover! Reloaded" but it seems it was canned D:

I almost made Hover into a bonus [Doom] CTF level but I couldn't figure out how to get the textures out of it heh

You know, TBH, if someone was able to do it, porting the 3 maps and the CTRL+SHIFT+IBMAB cheat level into a DM wad would be superb. I have no idea how to do it myself though :(

I know they'd need 3D floors to be accurate though; the castle and city levels have a staircase with a ledge and the sewer has a few floating platforms.
