Oh, sorry - I lost track of what I had posted there.

As far as I know, PC/DOS. It's a humourous platformer, wherein you control three vikings, one with a shield, one with a bow and one that's athletic. Not at the same time. The've been abducted by aliens and have to escape. Little logic is involved in the games, but they are very fun.

I nearly beat it, too.

I believe it originated as a SNES game. Or maybe it was ported there... who knows.

I know
You can download it right here in the good old DOS version (fits on a floppy), but it's actually a SNES console game. Very interesting, puzzling game that one, I almost finished it, but the last level is an absolute nightmare back in that alien ship

Btw, back on topics, I have a 17" Viewsonic LCD since january and I would never trade it back for a CRT
Some lower-quality video might seem more pixelized, because it's so much sharper. It was a godsend when I was designing microelectronics, 1 pixel wide lines are a nightmare on a CRT...
