Windows Version

Since the release of the original Raptor, Mountain King Studios has released a Windows port of this game, available here. Be warned, however, that while boasting slightly enhanced graphics over the original MS-DOS version, the Windows version has the following issues:

  • Your ship moves at half its normal speed when keyboard controls are used
  • Your ship cannot move to the extreme right side of the screen when mouse control is used
