Freeware Game Pick: Qquak (Jan Willem Nijman)
QQUAK is a low-resolution remake of id's Quake 2 by Jan Willem Nijman, featuring three playable maps to choose from, four different weapons to use, and a limitless number of enemies for you to shoot at. Health and ammunition can be replenished by collecting power-up items, and your score is submitted automatically after the end of each game.

Most fun I've had with a game in quite a while.

It was okay, but there really should be an option to change mouse sensitivity there somewhere. The fact that it's so high makes it really hard to aim well.

Calling this a remake is not only stretching it but simply wrong. The author says it was "inspired by" wich is clearly not the same thing.
Still pretty cool. I think more retro style fps games could be awesome. 8-bit killer was incredible.

That reminded me way too much of cactus's "Tekno Zombie". So-so.
