Blog: Remaking a classic Windows 3.1 game from 1991

2024-08-21

We liked so much the game Jewel Thief from Paul Ligeski that we decided to do a remake using the D2Soft Engine! The author originally wrote the game for Windows 3.1 in 1991 and released it as shareware. For the time, it was a fun little game that required the best reflexes to move through the levels.

Our remake consists of 5 levels. A score is calculated along the way and you have 5 lives to complete the game.
