I used to play a game on either Sega or SNES. You play as a little bouncy ball with a face and it is a side scrolling platformer. I have tried to look it up so many times and it always ends in failure!!!
This sounds a little like a game I used to play called "Super Putty".
You were a wad of putty with eyes, shaped like a ball. You could bounce
Or stretch between platforms.





Does this look like it at all?
I am looking for this or similar game too. It is not super putty though. There was a yellow ball with a face, and sometimes it would fall on its side and make a funny sound and look a bit squished... Trying to find it.

Anyone remember this arcade game from the 80s

From what i remember
it had 3-4 characters to choose from: Old/fat guy, a boy, a girl/woman

As i recall they had hammers as weapons and it could be upgraded to a gold hammer

It was platform/scrolling can't quite recall

Been looking for this for a long time, just can't find it from the info my memory lets me access :/
Would love for someone to point me in the right direction! :D

Hey, i vividly remember playing this old fighting game, either xbox original, or ps2. (not sure). In it you were this little guy, a person or a toy. You would be in a big house ( i remember one of the stages was chrisms, and you could get on the train. But i think it was like super violent, and cartoony. and there were little weapons you could get. Once agin not too sure. But I've been chasing this game all month and still no luck. can you help? P.S it came on the same disk as toe jam and earl, and some other game.

I have a game that I am looking for it was for I think 95/98 because you had to use the mouse mainly to move, but anyway The closest that I could get to a name was like BAM or something on that and you had this weird mech looking machine that you could use items like a dampener and you had waypoint items you needed to destroy and aliens creatures and the main page had the nuke symbol as well that that is what caught my eye it was a great game very hard. You could only use the mouse to move and to shoot though I remember that much, but I cannot think of the name and if anyone knows please help thank you so much!

Hi everyone , I'm new to this :) looking for help finding 3 games that have tortured me

1)Ps1 game. An arena style game where cars smash each other and shoot each other and get power ups, I remember a SWAMP level. I though it might have been one of the twisted metal games but can't find a swamp level on youtube.

2) A Ps1 or ps2 game, An arcade fighting game that was on a demo. The 2 playable characters, 1 could use fire and the other ice. It wasn't like tekken or street fighter where you could only move back, forwards , jump. you could jump onto hills in the background of the level.

3) I'll be amazed if anyone gets this and love them forever haha. I think ps1 but maby ps2. I remember it being a game where you have a battle and its turn based like final fantasy or pokemon. pretty sure it had monsters, and on the map I'm pretty sure it wasn't and rpg where you walked about but instead you picked a point on the map and I think your avatar traveled there and it showed like a path to get there. If that doesn't make sense youtube yugioh dualist of the roses and watch what happens when you pick your opponent and you see the travel path to get from a to b. I remember you had a time limit or so many "turns" to complete the objective or map because I always failed, my team wasn't strong enough. Many thanks in advance gamers :)

I'm trying to find the title of a two games:

1 - I had a PC demo in the late 1990's, 97-98 I think? I remember the demo disc was orange and the game was a racing simulator type thing. You raced a few circuits and you could modify your car with guns, oil slicks, mines etc. There were tunnels, jumps, bumps and I remember the loading screen gave some quirky facts, one was something like 'engines have been stolen while waiting at lights' humour!

2 - On Amiga, a skiing/winter sports type game, you could do tubing, skiing from a mountain, snowball shootouts? There was a bloke with big eyes in a shop as well I remember!

Been trying to figure out the names for ages and it's really bugging me!!

MA MAN :D I think that Vigilante 8 is the game ! :D woop woop. the map looks lot more to what I remember, although I though there was crocs, maby I imagined it haha. Chuffed thanks!

Wrath unleashed isn't the other one, I think that how you moved about the map but when you got to a destination it changed to like a rpg.

Yeah I was thinking Vigilante 8 was an option but I played it on N64. Though with my experience if you want to ROM it I'd go with N64 version, because ps1 has been iffy time to time and Dreamcast took us some time to figure out.

ok so i remember playing a couple of older pixelated computer games all within a particular series where you have to type in commands for your character to do. one of the games was set at a mansion and part of it was inside the mansion and part of it was set in a bush maze outside and you find a gun at one point. the other one your plane crashed and you are an explorer and you have to try to find your way out of the jungle. both games have you in danger of some kind.
i remember them being fun but i cant remember many other details and i would really enjoy trying to play them again.
thank you

I'm looking for an game for some home console connected to a TV.

It had very simple graphics, it might have been Atari 2600, but perhaps older, so late 70s/early 80s. I think the levels were a red or blue grid/maze, but there were perhaps 4 screens "stacked on top of each other" so you would run down the first screen and immediately appear on top of the second. It might have been scrolling though, I'm not 100% sure. Anyway, each level was a couple of screens high.

You would run around this multi-screen grid/maze and collect crystals or mushrooms I think, and the game was pretty fast.

I also think there were 4 games either on the same cartridge or built in.

The console was in Sweden / Europe, but of course it could have been imported or bought on a business trip.

But most likely it was some famous console or early home computer, because very few systems were available in Sweden at that time.

(From how I remember the graphics, the game looked similar to the Astrocade Incredible Wizard, but it played differently (multi screens) and I've checked every game I could find for the Astrocade and it must be a different console.)

I remember there was this old game on one of my daycare's computer. It was a 2D Single Screen Level robot game in which you were placed in a Lab/building of some sort and in every level there were obstacles you had to avoid or destroy somehow (unsure if you had an attack of some sort). but the catch was that you could complete the game 2 ways. You had an option you could go through the levels like normal jumping and )meybe killin the enemies) which the game would then play out normally or you just use Thrusters or something like that to jump and fly through the level which would then block out the story that would normally play in between levels when you beat them and if i remember when you activated the thrusters the word "cheater" in red would appear in one of the corners of the screen.
That's all i really remember of the game recently remembered this existed and it's been bugging me non-stop literally been obsessed with finding it since i remembered it.

Hello, I was wondering if some people can help me out. Around (max.) 20 years ago, there was this PC game where you could play as a Minotaur amongst other fantasy characters, but I remember this game 'cause I played as the Minotaur. It was a fantasy game in general, also with magic and all that. You could also wear rings, and level up your main character (not WoW btw). It may look like something as Warlords Battlecry looks... Well, that's all I have unfortunately, I really hope someone can help me out and thanks in advance!

Hi everyone! So i remembered a game i used to play a long time ago around 2002-2005. I think it was like an rpg with the camera above the character with click commands. I remember it had a character customization and around 5-6 races and i picked a guy that looked like a giant viking with blue facial tattoos. At the beggining you are playing the tutorial in full gear and learning the basics (this might not help, but i think i remember enemies coming out of a pink seashell in the tutorial at one point). Then a huge battle happens and you lose no matter what you do. Then i believe you are captured and left with nothing, prisoner at a tree-house prison with many others. It was a PC game and a cd-rom disk.
I am breaking my head against the wall because i can remember full scenes in my mind, but i cant precisely say what game it was.
Anyway, thanks in advance!!
