Nice...
When I was about 13, I started playing this MMO called Nexus TK. I have spent what I'm sure is thousands of hours playing it. I kicked the habit for a whule, but recently re-registered to see what was going on. It's a slow responding 2D "action" MMO, and the decline in players turned it into a weird niche clique where newcomers are basically not welcome. But it's still up and running 25 years later.
You should go check it out. It's awful.
Other people know Rocket Jockey?! My friends and I have LAN paries every now and again and it is one of our staple games (although it sometimes runs like trash on modern systems over network). There are communities out there with the ISO floating around and some widescreen/network patches.
There is even a remake project that is still actively in development, but I'm pretty sure it's just one guy working on it, so it's been slow moving for years. You can download beta builds for free.
Edit: Also the soundtrack is absolutely insane. I actually saw a car commercial on TV recently that used the title music and I was like "HEY THAT'S THE ROCKET JOCKEY SONG"... But apparently, it was an actual band/artist that did the soundtrack, so it's not "taken from the game" so to speak.
Plugged your query into ChatGPT and got this:
The game you are referring to is likely "The Lost Tribe," also known as "The Lost Tribe: Fire, Ice, and Water." It was a PC game released in 1993. In the game, you start in the stone age and progress through various historical eras, such as the Ice Age and the era of the Inca civilization. You solve puzzles and fight enemies using weapons and tools appropriate to each era.
Yes! Thanks for linking the soundtrack. The artist that did the soundtrack, or who's songs were used for the soundtrack was Dick Dale, who is most famous for his song Misirlou (AKA - the Pulp Fiction theme).
It took me forever to find the commercial but this is it - https://www.ispot.tv/ad/nkqx/acura-two-words-dyno-song-by-dick-dale-t1
I guess it wasn't the theme song, but the song Nitro which is the 3rd in the OST. Still caught me by surprise when I heard it.
The texts are terrifying, what's mildly infuriating is that I have no idea what order to read them in because after the first image it's just a rant so it could really go in any direction.
