Hey you... I got something to tell ya
Biscuit Hider
It's high time I load up an old cd that I still have lying around.
Let's see what I can find on the first custom junk CD that I ever burned.



It's a '98 vintage so we're talking over 15 years ago. Why is it called "E.G.G.S. Junk"? gently caress if I know.
So this is what's in this thing:



Let's cut the crap and go straight into "Jeupoche". It's french for "crappy game".

Wow, why the gently caress is this folder called "crappy game"? These hot 15 year old mishmashes of shareware and warez are hot stuff.
The less obvious folders include Quarantine, Cannon Fodder, Shadow Warrior... I think RRR is Rodger Ramrod :dong:


The midi's folder:


:yikes:
drat, what a depressing folder.
I bet the joke text folder is worse. Let's make sure.

:shibewow:


The NES folder fosters an old friend. Thanks, shitman!


The stupid pics folder ain't half bad. Here's some barely :nws: quality '98 meme samples:

:mrgw:


Hey it's an old portrait of myself




Final folder worth checking, the zips folder:

Some weird stuff in here. Of note: Eye Candy was a photoshop 3 plugin. Net Bus was a sick hack gimmick for windows 98 that could permit you to control another person's mouse, provided you could trick them into doing dumb things on their computer first. CuteFTP, DirectX 6 installer, Wipeout XL representin'... And the demo of Simcopter :vince:
See ya in another 20 years, disc!

I just looked through a nearly ten-year-old backup CD of mine and all there was of note was a large collection of sprite sheets.

Fine, gonna post some txt stuff later tonight.
I'm pretty sure it's just the demo of Rodger Ramrod.

E: yeah its just the demo. Too bad, the game owns. I wonder if there's a full version somewhere out there.

There isnt. There was some searching done before and the only people who have copies are the original creators who all became devout Christians and pretend it never happened before and refuse to release it.

did you ever get EGGS Disc past beta 1.0?

I think the next disc was one called "Backup 2/3", despite never having made a backup 1/3 or 3/3.

So Yeeah I guess: version 2/3 or rather 0.666 :twisted:
