Issues unresolved
Original Windows executables do not run/function
- The following fix will allow the 3D accelerated executables to launch successfully. However, the main menu and cursor are unusable. The opening cutscene is also choppy
- The fix was tested for the GOG.com release
- Even with this partial fix, the software rendered executables (
keeper95.exeanddeeper95.exe) will not run at all
| Instructions |

Issues fixed
Installing under modern Windows
- The game installer is 16-bit only, making it impossible to install the game without a 3rd party solution.
