Also Frontier Elite II runs great in DOSBox and is my favourite in the series. I believe it was the last big commercial game to be written entirely in assembler and fit on a single floppy disk.

Check out frontvm https://sourceforge.net/projects/frontvm/ https://sourceforge.net/projects/frontvm/ I put every version I could find there, it starts as a specialised emulator to run frontier based on the ST version, then it became a 68000 to i386 asm/C and then added in OpenGL rendering. It’s pretty cool

Comanche Maximum Overkill was written in assembly too, or at least the VoxelSpace engine was. It didn't fit on a single floppy disk though.
