This site's pretty high in the search for magus, so in case that site goes down or something, here's a mirror.

Thanks for the link! It worked fine for me. I've been looking for it for a long time, too. Only thing is it won't run on my 64 bit but I have some older ones around here. Ronny also had another one, before Magus and C-Dogs, which had big colored circles that moved (turn based) around inside big tube like mazes. It was great. Anybody know where that one is or what it was called?

I am the author of Magus, Cyberdogs and C-Dogs, but I cannot recall making a game matching that description.

You may be thinking of the game called Gonk, which was essentially a remake of the Eldritch Cat game Projectyle (to the best of my recollection, not having played the original in a long time). While it did feature colorful circles, it was not turn-based - it was an arcade sports-game, sort of a three-player air-hockey thing. There were also tubes connecting the five different courts of the playing field.

Unfortunately I broke playability when I was tweaking the core mechanics and I never really got it to a state I was pleased with. It did not do the original justice I'm afraid.

Ahah! I just remembered this game the other day, I too used to play it waaaay back when I was a youngun. Me and a mate would "co op" it by controlling specific characters. And also C-Dogs was great fun, the level/campaign creation system was gold.

So I've just downloaded this and am gonna have a wee bit of nostalgia Wink
