Crimson Wars on the net

Fansite for the obscure 1999 RTS game Crimson Wars. There are still few mentions of it across the web, and although I barely made it through the first two levels when I played it, I’m weirdly nostalgic for it. I asked the game’s composer for a high quality version of its soundtrack for the site, and he obliged. I still think that’s pretty cool, especially because the intro theme is such a banger. The site also provides a virtual machine so Crimson Wars can be played on modern PCs.

The site was originally made with ASP.NET Core in 2017, but soon after migrated to Jekyll and then later to Eleventy.
