Super 3D Noah's Ark is a Christian-themedvideo game for MS-DOS which was also released unofficially for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System. It was developed by the biblical video game producer Wisdom Tree[1] and released in 1994. It was the only commercially released SNES game in North America that was not officially sanctioned by Nintendo. Despite its name, it is unrelated to Konami's official Noah's Ark for the Nintendo Entertainment System.[2] The game was a commercial failure and is considered a clone of Wolfenstein 3D. It was most commonly sold in Christian bookstores.
Gameplay[edit]
The game plays similarly to Wolfenstein 3D, but the graphics were changed to reflect a non-violent theme. Instead of killing Nazi soldiers in a castle, the player takes the part of Noah, wandering the Ark, using a slingshot to shoot sleep-inducing food at angry attacking animals, mostly goats, in order to render them unconscious. The animals behave differently: goats, the most common enemy, will only kick Noah, while the other animals such as sheep, ostriches, antelopes and oxen will shoot spittle at him from a distance. Goats are also unable to open doors, while the other animals can.

The gameplay is aimed at younger children. Noah's Ark includes secret passages, food, weapons and extra lives. There are secret levels, and shortcut levels as well. The player eventually comes across larger and more powerful slingshots, and flings coconuts and watermelon at the larger boss-like animals, such as Ernie the Elephant and Carl the Camel.
History[edit]
Development[edit]
Flip (itch) (john Groot) Mac Os Update
The game that would eventually become Super 3D Noah's Ark was originally conceived as a licensed game based on the movie Hellraiser, a movie that Wisdom Tree founder Dan Lawton was a great fan of. Wisdom Tree acquired the game rights to Hellraiser for $50,000, along with a license to use the Wolfenstein 3D game engine from id Software, believing that the fast, violent action of Wolfenstein would be a good match for the mood of the film. Development initially began on the Nintendo Entertainment System, with Wisdom Tree intending to ship the game on a special cartridge that came equipped with a co-processor that could increase the system's RAM and processing speed several times over.[3]
Eventually the Hellraiser game concept was abandoned due to several issues: the hardware of the NES was found unsuitable because of its low color palette and the addition of a co-processor would have made the cartridge far too expensive for consumers.[3] According to Vance Kozik of Wisdom Tree, little progress was made on the NES incarnation of the game, which he described as 'a barely up-and-running demo.'[4] The platform for Hellraiser was then switched to the PC, and the developers were able to make more progress on this version. However, by the time the first prototype was finished, Doom had been released, and Wisdom Tree felt that Hellraiser would not be able to compete.[4] In addition, the management at Wisdom Tree decided that developing and publishing a horror-themed game would clash with their religious, family-friendly image. With these factors in mind, Wisdom Tree decided to let their Hellraiser license expire, transfer development to the Super Nintendo Entertainment System, and redesign the game with a Christian theme, eventually coming up with a game about Noah's Ark.[5][3]
As the game was not officially sanctioned by Nintendo, Wisdom Tree devised a pass-through system similar to the Game Genie to bypass the system's copy protection, where the player had to insert an officially licensed SNES game into the cartridge slot on top of the Super 3D Noah's Ark cartridge.[4] Wake me up (interactive music clip) mac os.
A popular rumor claims that id Software licensed the Wolfenstein 3D engine to Wisdom Tree in retaliation against Nintendo for the content restrictions Nintendo placed on the Super NES version of Wolfenstein 3D.[3][4][6] In actuality, Wisdom Tree offered id Software very lucrative terms for the Wolfenstein 3D game engine, which id regarded as having already outlived its usefulness,[3] and id staff have stated that they never had any problems with Nintendo in the first place.[4][7]
Re-release[edit]
Flip (itch) (john Groot) Mac Os Operating System
In January 2014, the game was re-released for the SNES, initially available only by private email orders, but later through Piko Interactive's website.[8] The game was also updated for the 20th Anniversary Edition and released on itch.io on May 26, 2014 for Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux. These modern PC re-releases are based on the ECWolf game engine, a derivative of Wolfenstein 3D and ZDoom.[9] On June 23, 2015 this version was released in digital distribution on Steam.
In October 2015, a community reconstructedsource code variant became available on bitbucket.[10][11][12]

It's alright, the controls are intentionally bad, and the word daddy in the title makes it worse but aesthetically better. This game has nice models, art pallete and an idea. It is something you play and forget but it's enough for having fun. The only problem is that it is repedetive (i have 1200+ hours in geometry dash btw) and there is no music. While playing the game and looking at the title i recommend you to listen to this because the title sounds weird.
Nah, not really. I am totally overrating the game because i have standarts as a cat. Enough is enough, 7/10 is the perfect rating.
Really fun game! However, after a while it becomes repetitive, especially since serving raw meat didn't do anything lol
Made a video
It was a neat little game that I could play for hours if I had spare time, I kinda wish there as more to it, like put it on a bun and if it would have cheese or no cheese.
It was the last game I played.great game! The heckling in the background was hilarious. Found it hard to actually flip the burgers though lol.
Here's my video on it :) https://bestofiles748.weebly.com/run-fry-run-mac-os.html.

Hey man, we're glad you enjoyed it! We made it over a couple of days at a game jam so a lot of things that we planned ended up not getting added because we ran out of time! We might possibly come back to it in the future but no real plans at them moment.
