So one of my dream projects is to combine emscripten DOSBox with a multi-player server and some low-level game hacking to support it.
The basic idea is that I want a way to play DOS games in the browser, but with a hack to let it be networked pseudo-hotseat.
So you could play GORILLA.BAS in the browser with a friend. Or Scorched Earth with your discord channel.
Any other turn-based DOS games that'd be a good choice for this?
