      A collection of games called “flying” which despite the name is a pool/billiards/curling/air hockey sim.

      I had it mentioned on a Cathode Ray Dude YouTube video and wanted to try it, which led me down a bit of a rabbit hole. As far as I could find it never got ported to Linux? But it’s still in the FreeBSD repositories. So I spun up FreeBSD on a VM but couldn’t get it working because it refuses to launch on X if you have more than 8-bit color, and I was having a hell of a time launching X in that mode. So I downloaded a copy of FreeBSD 4 from around 2000 and got it to run.
