Ok... its gonna be awkward but here we go :p

I played in somewhere around 90's ( 94-97 cant remember exactly =/ ). Its a SNES game, last I remember it was in japanese so dont get any clue about names, etc. I remember that was a platform game that could be played by 2 players at same time. The Player 1 can only use the main char of the game that shoot like some sparks (little static) from his hair ( o_O ) and the Player 2 can choose ( or each Phase Scenario switch) a diferent char, the 2 chars that I remember is one is some like a ninja that burps like simple attack (lol) or fart has a area skill (rofl), and the other one char is a guy karate looking that throw fireballs and other fire things. Im searching for this game like decades so if someone know what is this creepy thing I apreciate and be forever gratefull for you guys =)

Thanks o/\o

Hello! I'm hoping someone can help me because this is driving me insane. I apologize in advance for the lack of description i give. i remember playing a game in the 90s on either our first mac desktop or PC. i believe it was on the PC but i can't guarantee. i'm 30 years old so I believe it was mid 90s. i'm not sure what the genre of game is considered but it's similar to tilt to live or geometry wars as far as modernish games. 2D, you controlled it with your mouse and the point (from what i can remember) was to collect things i think...holy shit as i just typed that i remembered that i think they were numbered billiard balls. at least numbered circles. and you had to avoid "enemies" so to speak. you had obstacles. and you could collect different "shields" i believe (like in tilt to live). like a spike shield, etc. i can hear the sounds when you collected the "balls" (sort of like a ball going into a pocket i think - unless i am confusing that sound with a different game) i think when you finished collecting them you went into a little exit at the bottom of the screen (may have moved in each level and gotten more difficult). i think you had to collect them in order. i know this is very scattered but i feel like that's what it was like. the big thing is i could SWEAR at the end it had the alien quote but altered to say "in space no one can hear you moo"... when i google that all i get is a game available now for the iphone/ipad/etc. called moo maverick.... definitely not it. haha
any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

Hi everyone I'm hoping someone can help me here, I've been flipping thru the pages here looking for this game and I've gone thru all kinds of ways of searching.

The game was around the nineties I think, I was about a teenager I believe.

It was a pc Game, third person shooter from what I remember. You were in a black army type suit with black jet wings coming out from both sides of your back. I remember you could jet pack and fly for a while then fall back down.

Also the levels I remember were

1. on a high high building, brown sky and clouds were above and below so if you fell you would die. There weren't many enemies you just walked around I guess I couldn't figure that place out.

2. the next one you spawned on what seemed to be an island, I remember the palm trees, there were also other characters like me and were just shooting at each other, the life bar was around your head a tiny bright green rectangle that then ebbed away as you got shot i think. I recall boxes around there. I remember flying around and trying to kill something.

Damn that sounds very vague but I can't for the life of me remember what this game was called. My uncle had it on his laptop dunno if it came with the package os or what. Please someone help me!

The game was basically a flight sim in space
I played this around 8-10 years ago on an old PC I think it was a demo of the full game

-controlling a spaceship fighting aliens
-It gave you a big space to where to fight missions
-I remember two missions that were blowing up a bigger spaceship and protecting your base from attacks
-also you had AI partners that you could shoot
-The color palette was basically black and green
-you had to lock in on enemies and shoot missiles or use your plasma guns
-they gave you a list of every ship in the current mission whether they be friend or foe (on the bottom left)
-Your AI partners and the aliens also had voiced lines

hey guys please I really want to know the name of the game described above. I think it was on windows 97-99 PLEASE PLEASE
The only thing I could find was Sword of the Stars, but it's from 2006.
On the plus side, this game looks so cool I might have to buy it.
You might want to try looking up the Master of Orion series as well.

An old mid 90s game on the mac platform where you go around the map searching for something (huge and takes a long time and you often punch in coordinates), searching planets, and there are mini battles with alien spacecraft each ship has a different ability (strength/weakness). You can play one on one with a friend and picking different ships until the last one is standing? Any ideas?

Hello everyone,
I am trying to find this game in which you played as a blob or something like that and you were collecting eggs that were used for shooting. I think that they looked like easter eggs and there was four of them. Also, the blob could bounce off the walls and it was carrying these eggs to some old man. I remember that there was a swamp level and some kind of power plant. Ufortunatelly that's all I can remember about it, but if anyone would recognize it, that would be great, because I am looking for it for so long and I really want to play it again.
Thank you!

Hi, I'm trying to find the name of this old game.

It is similar to Zelda I think in terms of game style. This is what I remember from the game:

You start in a small cave next to a town by coming out of some chamber or time travel device thing. You fight with a single hero that uses a sword. The sword can be upgraded into a wind, fire, ice, lightning sword. Each type can be upgraded 3x I think so you can charge and file more powerful attacks. The first thing you do is leave north of town to fight gorilla and slime looking monsters. You have to find a sleeping man in a cave and get some potion to wake him up and power up the windmill to open up another cave. The first boss in that cave is a witch looking thing that teleports around and attacks you with bats.

Can anyone tell me what was the name of this game? It was 2D also.

I remember a game that was very similar to Zelda, you played as a blonde guy with a blue cape or shirt, your weapon was a sword but I recall that you can use other types of weapons as well like magic. It was top down, with somewhat basic graphics and you started out in a forest in your house if I recall correctly, I think it was shareware or what we would call indie today, this was back in the late 90's by the way.

I remember playing a pc game in the late 1990's/ early 2000's where you were a wizard and you went around killing monsters. I am pretty sure it was the main game on a disc that had a lot of other little games on it. I remember that you could get like 9 different spells, and for like the 7th or something you could choose between a room of coins and the spell book.. I might have gotten it from sending in box tops from cereal or something (but im really not sure about that).

Can't remember this old game I used to play on the old windows computer between 1994 and 2000 I think.

I'm sure there was 2 guys that you controlled on a very pixelated environment and they had weird names maybe. It was more or less a point and click style game where you had to go around and do certain things with different objects to progress to the next area or screen. I'm sure the setting for the game was medieval of some sorts. For some reason I keep thinking of a giant or a cyclops blocking a path or object and maybe he was sleeping in the first few stages of the game. I also remember a flying Nymph in a part that flew into a house of some kind and you had to help her somehow. But as far as that, that's about all i remember about the game. Hope someone can help.

Hi guys, have a hard one to figure out, but I'm hoping.

This is a really old PC game, I was really young so I don't remember much, and what I do remember, I don't know if it's totally accurate or not. I believe it was a point and click, a brother and a sister solving mysteries and I think they had a dog as well. For some reason, I think they had a yellowish type skin color but I'm not sure at all, really cartoony graphics.

The biggest hint is the demo disk I played of it. The demo disk had Battle Arena Toshinden, Big Red Racing, Knight's Chase, and of course this game on it.

Any ideas please let me know.

Thanks.


Thank you for the quick reply. However this is definitely not the game I'm looking for.
Do you think it might be Elroy's Costume Closet? The only footage I could find on YouTube is of a different game in the series, Elroy Hits the Pavement. There's also Elroy Goes Bugzerk.
The character is indeed yellowish, and I believe he's looking for his dog, Blue. He also has a sister named Syd.
Oh sweet! That is it! Thanks a lot, dunno why but I've been wanting to find it, but it's been on my mind like crazy. Thanks so much for finding it!

I was listening to that walkthrough and it sounds like all of the Elroy games are now super rare. The player had to buy his copy on eBay. Good luck man, I hope you can get your hands on it!

Please help me find this game. I cant find it at all.
The game is old, like 1995-2000 years I think. and similar to Trine, braid, limbo and so on. its ant action side-scrooling game. Main character is a Cat, equiped with sword and pistol. you collect all kind of food, treasure, and so on. you have to fight vs dogs, there are 7 i think chapters each with final boss you have to kill and take his GEM to complete the game ypu have to collect all gems from bosses(dogs) . the puzzles of how to get some treasure is very hard, its much much harder than trine.
also, you have some several Lifes, you can get more when you collect treasure.

any thoughts?
sorry by my english..

Hey man!
I have been looking for this game for quite a while, and seeing your post gave me some hope it actually existed lol.
After a lot of research, I googled ' snes game "out of his hair" attack ' and suddenly it all came clear :)

The game is GeGeGe no Kitarou, there is a video in youtube "GeGeGe no Kitarou (SFC) level 1" which can confirm it for you!

Best regards,
André Hirano.

Hello.

I remember playing a naval-ish game where you can play as different units. If I am correct you can play as a boat, submarine, and a stationary naval base defending itself. I believe this game is from the mid-early 2000s, your objective is to shoot down enemy planes, bombers, etc. Graphics were kinda good aswell.

Also, the game is 2D and for the PC.

Any ideas?
