Having a LOT of fun playing this. It’s the talkie and MT-32 versions at the same time using SKYDRV.
What is skydrv?
I wasn’t aware you could play with Roland music and the speech files, would love to give it a try.
I love Bass - excellent choice in a game to play!
This is such a great game, excellent choice.
That was a fun game, I like that the main character’s last name is Austrailian for “beer”
This game is free on Linux.
For Ubuntu, just
sudo apt install beneath-a-steel-sky
And you can start playing.
It’s freeware on all systems and can be played using ScummVM which has builds for most major platforms - the game files are free to download from ScummVM.org (as well as some other adventure games that have been made freeware like Flight of The Amazon Queen)
Beneath a Wooden Shelf
It’s crap, son.
“You’re in the Union City recycling plant…”
That’s one ugly ass “desk”.
I’ll take function-over-form over the reverse any day.
This was the dream of the 90s. I had every piece of equipment and media disc displayed and wanted a desk that “for” my monitors sooooo bad.
Nowadays it’s all about subtly (my tastes have shifted, too) but back then the aesthetic was a full square meter that shouted “THIS IS THE COMPUTER ZONE!!!”
From top to bottom: nice games, very good to put SSDs in a floppy-disk box, nice shitty retro mouse, but WTF is the McDonalds rack at the bottom?
OP remote disables the ice cream machines.
I love your setup!

I love the 90s aesthetic to your setup! It brings back memories for me of playing Doom on my Dell XPS 90 that sat on a rolltop type desk.
