The description says it was originally uploaded by John Romero. Not far in, you can see him kick the turtle shell into the block to get the power-up. It was not his first time playing the game. He seems to be showing how closely they replicated the functionality of SMB3 on the NES but in DOS, which was very impressive at the time and eventually became Commander Keen when they didn’t get the contract.

















I wouldn’t compare Palworld to Monster Hunter, but comparisons to Pokemon are fair for pretty obvious reasons, even if it’s by no means the same gameplay loop verbatim.
