3DR released Apogee classic as free christmas present!

QUOTE (Joe @ 3DR)

Thirteen years ago, our company was heavily into the old sidescroller market. We had successes with games like Commander Keen, the original Duke Nukem, as well as Cosmo's Cosmic Adventure, and plenty of other titles. However, in 1993, we released one based on the Keen 4 game engine - this game was called Bio Menace. While it wasn't the runaway hit that Duke Nukem was, Bio Menace was a very successful game for its time. It stayed as a product in our line for many years, until being discontinued awhile back (mostly for technical reasons). However, now we're here to bring the game back to you - as freeware.

Continuing in our series of freeware releases from the past, Bio Menace is now available for you to download in a full registered form. This download contains all three episodes, and you can get it from our FTP site.

It's a good game, check it out. Be sure to grab a program like DOSbox or VDMsound if you're using Windows XP, though.

Unless that was a demo or something, and this is the full version... EDIT: Nevermind, I see now.
