Catapult VS alephone

Bright Nights launcher/updater (also works for DDA!) by qrrk: https://github.com/qrrk/Catapult/releases

I use the Catapult installer to manage my installs of both CDDA and Cataclysm: Bright Nights Ahead. It also manages mods and sound packs. The link is to the most recent release, scroll to the bottom and click the .exe file option - once downloaded double click to install. Once installed launch, make sure the very top drop down has the “dark days ahead” version selected and make sure the “experimental” radio button is selected before clicking the “install selected” button. You might want to set the folder for install first.

Use a launcher to preserve your settings between updates. I prefer Catapult, mainly because the backup utility on the other one doesn't work.

I'd recommend grabbing a launcher like Catapult. Gives you a one-stop-shop for managing game version, forks, mods, tilesets etc.

My friend, you should try Aleph One.

It's amazing you can run this on any Mac still with https://alephone.lhowon.org/

You can play the original Marathon(s) on Mac, Windows, and Linux now thanks to Aleph One [0]. There's also new scenarios for the engine still being released, like Apotheosis X which came out last year [1].

If you’re reading this then go play the original Marathon trilogy by Bungie. One of the best boomer shooters out there with a fantastic sci-fi story!

Welcome! If you want to get a head start, check out https://alephone.lhowon.org

Here is a direct link to the fork’s releases page.

Marathon. Bungie doesn't sell the game anymore, but they did upload it to the internet. I linked to Aleph One Sourceport instead though since the original doesn't work on Windows natively.

The originals are free and work on mac, pc and linux. If you have an xbox there is one there too. https://alephone.lhowon.org/
