Here is the video game “Dune II: The Building of a Dynasty”! Released in 1992 on DOS, it's still available and playable with some tinkering. It's a strategy game, set in a real-time, sci-fi / futuristic, licensed title, rts and war themes and it was released on Amiga as well. Among other things, it allows to convert single or multiple PNG files into Dune 2 SHP and WSA, and PCX files into unpaletted CPS files. NOTE: The latest version of Red Horizon Utilities is 0.28a, but you might also need v0.24 to create Dune 2 SHPs with varying frame dimensions (for some reason SHPs of this kind created with v0.28a may crash the game). Earlier versions of Red Horizon Utilities can be downloaded here.
