What's this "Malkari" game? I've never heard of it. ....
Malkari was put out by Interactive Magic before they went out of business. It was a directx game based on the aftermath of a rogue star entering a races solar system to form a binary star system. The planet is ripped apart sending astroids everywhere with biogen bunkers that restart civilization once the radiation levels receed. Each player starts with one astroid and attempts to get as many as he can. The astroids have elliptical orbits around one or both of the suns. The game had 3d capability, but for the most part, you dealt with the plan of the solar system. I could never run it long because it would crash. Others had more luck. I guess you tended to be at the mercy of your video drivers with respect to how they programmed it. I found copies in a software bargin bin. You might still find someone selling it on ebay. It looked promising, but it did not work for me.
