Made for the 3DO and it SHOWS.
Killing Time was released in 1995 for the 3DO before being ported to the PC by Logicware in November, 1996. For those of you unfamiliar, the 3DO had a controller that was akin to the three-button Megadrive/Genesis pad with shoulder buttons and two function buttons instead of one. Playing on a PC, it's easy to tell this was a quick and dirty port. Most suspect is the fact that the game takes away turning/sidestep control from the turn keys to sidestep, and the game lacks a true mouse-look, something both Duke Nukem 3D (February 1996) and Quake (June 1996) had. It's best to use a retro-style USB controller, like Hyperkin's Scout or GN6 (Make sure they're the USB versions, as they also make versions for the SNES and Genesis respectively). Then use JoyToKey or a similar program to map the keyboard keys. After that, you'll have an enjoyable, if a bit basic, 90s FPS.
