oh wow, I worked on puzzle pits for a while trying to get it to compile.

I ended up figuring out that the original binary ran perfectly fine in dosbox (which I played for a bit) and that the original code was pretty much useless and it would be easier to do a complete rewrite of the game to get it to work with a modern system. Not to mention this doesn't even use a recent standard version of C. So I ended up losing all motivation because of this and because of being a 1 man team.

It was a fun project though, it was this project that introduced me to the hacks that made dos games possible :)
