Game 9: Abuse (Crack Dot Com, 1995).
https://www.joltcountry.com/index.php/f ... t-com-1995
There is no agreement as to whether this game was released in 1995 or 1996, so I went with 1995. I also have a distinct memory that the protagonist was called "Dr. Nick Vrenna" in the game's initial crawl, but I cannot find any evidence of this.
If you have Nick's university transcripts, please let me know. I think he did the "doctor shooting everything" well before Gordon Freeman in Half-Life but I can't prove it. I don't like that Nick Vrenna was trying to complete his Ph.D when the events of Abuse happened, because then it means that it was a school shooting game 3 years before Columbine. THIS CAN GO DIFFERENT WAYS
