So cool. That sound track was amazing. I think it has to be the best music in a video game ever.


Here's some additional Diablo I-inspired music:

1) The Hell mod: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5nxSapAytaI&list=PL5D12876E9...

The author behind this mod added several times the volume of the original game in custom assembly code.

A friend of mine did some pixel art armors and weapons by mixing up existing assets from various Diablo games.

The mod's soundtrack was classically composed by Raphael Reed, Ben Wallace and Kirill Polyanskiy.

2) Tristram (lofi version): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DhiZNPcaRXQ

There's a few 1-hour tracks like these on YouTube. It's basically lofi remixes of Diablo music. Suitable for work music.


I have to thank you for that lofi Tristram. So freaking cool.


I prefer Final Fantasy 3 on snes. Diablo is up there though.


Found DIABDAT.MPQ on Archive.org. I wonder sometimes how they get away with this stuff.

This is quite an achievement. What's next, StarCraft in a browser?


second this


Great work.

I recall the bug/cheat to duplicate spell books. Those fireballs and lightning chains at max level could wipe everything in seconds.


Or gold. Or stat boosting potions!


Or Obsidian Rings of the Zodiac!


This game destroyed my right hand from all the continuous clicking. Each attack was a click in contrast to D2 where you could just hold it down.

I still have the lingering effects from it to this day.


Is this the whole game? Nice work! Gonna play this


It is if you own the original. If not, then it's the ShareWare version.


Wow it actually works on my iPhone 15 Pro. Everything works including the audio.
