game turned out to be charmingly titled "I've Got Some BALLS". sebastian aaltonen, 1999, freeware. from the readme it sounds like someone who had more fun making 3d engines than anything else; the two "1.02 final" versions I downloaded differ primarily in their readmes, touting different new engines he had made
this seems appropriate, because I think I had more hours of fun debugging and fixing this than I ever will playing it

In the tradition of Direct3D samples of the era it would ask which graphics card and mode to use - then it would bomb out; wine had thrown an assertion dlls/ddraw/surface.c:5519: unsafe_impl_from_IDirect3DTexture2: Assertion `iface->lpVtbl == &d3d_texture2_vtbl' failed. So something passed in a texture pointer that wasn't a texture.
