Austro-Hungarian Antique Clock

Hello there!

We got this clock as an inheritance from our great grandmother.

We were wondering if anybody knows any details about it or a year of fabrication.

We didn't see any serial numbers, just the stamp and signature on the mechanism.

The key is nowhere to be found, we unfortunately we are unable to check if it works.

Any guidance or info about it would be of great assistance.

[PC][2000] 2D sidescroller shooter, two redneck/cowboy brothers alternate levels, kidnapped girl plot, pickup truck level

Platform: PC Genre: 2D side-scrolling shooter Estimated year: Late 90s – early 2000s (give or take)

What I remember:

Played this as a kid off a bootleg CD compilation my older cousin had — the kind that had like 50 random games on it. It was a 2D sidescroller shooter where you play as two brothers, cowboy or redneck types, trying to rescue a kidnapped girl (girlfriend or sister, can't remember which).

The main gimmick: the brothers take turns. You play one for a level, then it switches to the other brother for the next one.

The thing that stuck with me most: at some point your character either hops into or straight-up becomes a pickup truck for a level. That part I'm pretty sure about.

Weapons were revolvers or shotguns, keeping with the whole cowboy aesthetic.

Other details:

  • Single player only
  • Basic/indie-looking graphics, nothing fancy
  • Almost certainly from an Eastern European bootleg CD distro (Romania in my case)

Been trying to track this down for years with no luck. Anyone recognize it?
