Does this work for Windows 11? I download and mount it and stuff, but clicking Setup just shows the blue thinking circle for a few seconds before giving up, and the AutoRun opens up the installer before doing the same as Setup. I tried hitting uninstall and trying again, I tried ejecting and remounting, but nothing really works.
It seems to freeze up for me too whenever I try to leave on the scooter for a mission. This hapened to me after I followed the compatbility instructions too.
I was able to get it running with normal color and proportions with the fix @honey_bramble:disqus suggested, but once I tried playing the game it froze. I was able to play the mini games, but as soon as the leaving scooter animation played it froze on the loading screen. I got to play the turtle game though! And that’s really what I was wanting to do.
i am so late to the party ;-; i try to get the game to setup but it just makes the screen really small/zoomed in
thats normal, im still looking for a way to get rid of these black bars in the screen
Hi all. Probably a dumb request (because I’m on Windows 10 and it said it was incompatible but I’m sad and desperate lol), but if anyone knows a way to get around ‘The Entry Point Not Found’ error that pops up when you launch the game, please let me know. I tried fixing it myself but to no avail. I just want to play this old game from childhood again lol
Hey Everybody!! I found the solution. Follow all of the following instructions and then…

Follow these instructions! Fixes the color issue and everything! Happy retro-gaming!
And don’t forget to change to windows 95 at the same time.
Having problems, like Tori. Is it possible to get some help? I haven’t tried to trouble shoot it yet but it feels as though we shouldn’t be having problems with games, and then not getting any reply.
I’ve tried playing with the compatibility settings so many times and although the whole screen is taken up, only the left half is showing with messed up colors and and it’s squished. Anyone have a solution for this?
I got it to work but it keeps freezing. Any tips to stop that? It freeze and she has to restart the game. She’s pretty bummed. Any fixes?
