You're confused because OP2's devs did something dumb? You must be new here.

I found a copy of Outpost 1 on eBay that's supposedly the DOS version. We'll see when it gets here.

Just realized I haven't updated this.
The 'dos' version is just the Windows 3.1 version. Yay. I guess some publishers thought of Windows 3.1 as just a shell for DOS or whatever.

Considering that windows was built off of "stolen" (it was a legal liscnce, but it's more fun to say stolen :p ) DOS framework...yes, it was basically a DOS shell at that time
