In other 90s gaming resurrection news, the first WipeOut source has been rewritten to work on Linux/Mac/Windows. The source has also received a much needed tidy up.
You can get it here: https://github.com/phoboslab/wipeout-rewrite. If you have the dependent libraries (mostly SDL and 3d lib stuff) it is just a 'make' away. You'll also need the assets but the repo hints strongly where the assets may be found.
The hacker has shared story of how it was done, plus the history he uncovered of how the other ports were done by original developer Psygnosis: https://phoboslab.org/log/2023/08/rewriting-wipeout
Oh, it was also ported to WASM. That means it can be played in the browser: https://phoboslab.org/wipegame/
