Inside Mac Games Feb '94
& MACWORLD Marathon Build
For today's update, I've pulled together a ZIP file that
contains both the February 1994 issue of the digital magazine
Inside Mac Games & the first playable iteration of Marathon
from MACWORLD San Francisco 1994.
Once unzipped,
the folder can be dragged directly into InfiniteMac, a web
browser based MacOS emulator. From there you can flip
through the pages of this early digital magazine, and play the
same version of Marathon that was debuted by Bungie at
MACWORLD.
Below, I've provided a download button
for the ZIP file as well as a direct link to InfiniteMac
configured with a period authentic version of MacOS & proper
resolution settings. At this time, it seems like things work
best in Chromium based browsers, but I was able to get it
running properly in Firefox as well. If you have any issues
getting things to load, give it a try with Chrome.
NOTE: a README is provided in both the root folder of the
ZIP as well as the Marathon build with step-by-step launch
instructions
As part of the Capralogue: Season One project, it
is my intention to acquire and preserve rare materials related
to the eleven games that are not available online. To that end,
there is an ongoing goal on
Ko-Fi
for those that may be interested in helping fund the work I do!
Contributions so far have already raised the funding to acquire
a rare book from 1994 that has never been scanned! I'm happy to
say that the complete contents of the book have been carefully
removed from the binding and scanned into a 178 page PDF with
front and back cover intact. I've gotta tell you, it looks
AWESOME.
Stay tuned to see what it is! I'm very eager to share it.
