In Response To: Re: I'm trying to remember (Dermuda)

Thank you so much! I was able to get the latest Windows version, which contains only three levels. Too bad they never finished it. It really had potential. Hopefully, somebody, someday, will gather up forces to finish it.
Glad to be back here
: Hi Nicholai,
: Yes, I know what you mean. It’s ‘Marathon Freedom’, by CubicCircle! It’s
: actually a standalone game, written in Unity, but based around playing
: various different characters in the Marathon universe, in different
: settings. It’s a 2.5D engine, and you view the levels from above. The game
: brings in RPG elements, as you remembered – so you gain experience as you
: successfully complete levels, which you can spend on a variety of upgrades
: to make your life easier, and help you deal with harder difficulties.
: I don’t think it was ever fully finished, but what exists stands very nicely
: on its own. I’ve played it a fair bit, and I think it’s really rather
: good! I’d encourage people to try it out if they don’t know it!
: You can still download versions of it for Mac and Windows on Simplici7y:
: https://simplici7y.com/items/marathon-freedom-osx/
: Just be aware that the Mac version is old now, and won’t work on modern
: systems. I just verified that myself! So you’d need to do some emulation
: (and it’s possible the Windows version might be easier to get started on
: Mac systems these days – a pity!).
: Curiously, the version number on Simplici7y is 0.36, which I have, but I also
: have an updated version with version number 0.47 – but just for the Mac. I
: don’t recall what that version added, but I think it might have been at
: least an extra level at the end. I’m not sure it’s available online any
: more. Would you like to see it? Or should I upload that somewhere, for
: posterity?
: – D
