Hi!

ive got a game thats been stuck on my mind. It was about 10 years ago. All i remember is some kind of green creatures with just a few hair on the top of their heads (kinda like Peanut :D ) and i think they worked in some kind of mine or sth. When you didnt make any move they looked at you saying "work work". I had just a demo version and unfortunately I dont remember anything else.
Oddworld: Abe's Oddyssey?

Yeah, this one! Thank you^^

ok this is a long shot. its an old pc game where you are a dinosaur or dragon character and you shoot eggs from your mouth, and there are different levels, i think you collect gold bricks. There are spikes on the ground and ceiling that if you hit you die, on the last level you fight a big dinosour . I think its more of a basic game, there isnt really a story line from what i can remember.

Hi guys, so I've been searching for this game I have some distant memory of playing when I was kid, I can't find absolutely anything. But well, lets try here. It was a very old game probably coded for DOS or at most for Win95 or Win98. It is probably meant to be a racing game, but you don't really have to race, you can leave the track and just drive around and do whatever. The game has cars which are made of a very low number of polygons - they are probably meant to be some offroad cars. The map is made of rectangles (I think it wasnt more complicated shapes) which can be sloped, but never can there be two solid points above each other (on the same x,y coordinate). I also think the color of the rectangles was what determined the properties of that particular piece of the map, brown was dirt, green grass, white was snow, etc. The cars were kind of 3D and when you fell from hight or hit a very sharp slope or another car you would get damaged. But I don't think the textures changed actually, just the actual polygons making up the car sort of got pushed into each other, sometimes actually preventing you to drive any further. I also remember very distinctly (because this scared me as a kid for some reason :D ) that driving on snow would actually modify the map on the go to make it look like the snow is crumbling (the z coordinate was lowering), but there was a bug, where if you lowered this way low enough on the map, suddenly there woulndt be the pit you slowly created but a huuuuuge pillar would appear sending you flying upwards, and very often also crashing the game itself (now retrospectivly I think the coder of the game just forgot to check some altitude value for underflowing or something). Also it is very well possible that it was an amateur/half-amateur coded game, I don't even know if it was meant for commercial release, as I said I haven't been able to find it anywhere, the only little thing on the internet I found was a post in this forum several hundred pages back, I think another guy was asking about this game from what I could tell from his description, noone replied to him though. If there is anyone who knows which game I'm talking about - I will actually be very surprised. Thanks in advance if you even read this whole block of text I just created sorry about that :D peace out! ;)

Trying to find an old dos game I played in the 80s/90s where you were a red ball collecting diamonds. As the levels progressed there were new obstacles that affected your movement, ie magnets drawing you in closer. I think as you collected diamonds it all showed you to open different levels.

The red ball had eyes that would look in the direction you were moving. It was kind of like he game supaplex but the ball had more momentum instead of a discreet move grid.

Supaplex looks like this https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=PqQj1QPT4ts

Hello. So, i was playing this game like 10 years ago. It was something about a water drop, the main character. That had 3 classes. First was the normal. Second was cactus, which regenerate your life. The other one was ninja, which allow you to doublejump. You had like 3 easter eggs which you had to collect them through levels.You can throw them and return like boomerang. Like in super mario, the fireball. In the beggining, i remeber you land on earth i think from a space capsule or something. And you had alot of levels. I remember there was a boss battle in a laborator. You fight a man in a giant robot or space ship. There was some jungle levels where the enemies was some tiki thing. I hope someone has played this game and can give me the name. Thanks
The name of this game, I believe, is Glace. I remember finding it on caiman.us before the owner passed away.
This is it! Omg. Thank you man. I was looking for this game for almost 2 years...

Hey
Im trying to remember the name of a game I played when i was very young, like 15 years ago, so I dont remember much.
It was a space/futuristic, had isometric perspective. I remember that you could drag bodies to medical stations (i guess you were in control of a group of people). I also remember some sort of biodome with plants. there was also a sequence on the outside where u needed to wear suits. Wait, I think it was actually in an underwater base, not space, but im not sure.
searched a lot for it and never found it. The game STASIS made me think about it.

Hey, I made an account specifically for this question. I've been searching for the name of this game for years for nostalgia's sake. I played it in elementary school on the school's computers, though it appears all of my friends (who went to different schools than myself) have no memory of the game so i assume it wasn't a default educational game like "All The Right Type".

Anyway, the game I have in mind is like an educational game of how circuits and electricity work. I believe the background of this "sandbox" type game was green and grid like. You had different battery sizes and you could use them by connecting wires from it to different objects like fans, horns, etc. If it was too much voltage and it were connected to a light bulb, the light bulb would explode and if it were not enough, the light would be dim.

Does this sound familiar to ANYONE??

Thanks to anyone who can steer me a the right direction, and a hug to anyone who remembers it as well because that means I didn't totally make it up in my head.

EDIT: I guess I should clarify, elementary school was early 2000's

Well.. it reminded me of TIM (The Incredible Machine), but I'm not sure, it doesn't sound absolutely like that.. give it a look though :)

It's pretty much the same idea but it was specifically electricity/circuitry based. The graphics were a bit more advanced as well (less skinny??)
Other than that they are almost identical.

Hey my gf is looking for a game which she's been playing about 8 years ago. It was up to 4 players game on a split screen, you had sat in a small car but werent riding on a track but something kind of arena. You had some character choises etc monkey some mouse looking like diddl, objective was to first collect something, and the winner was who collect it fastest. Then game end and next level. She remembers also that first level was in winter and it had a kinda of very good colorful graphic. Really please help us :)
Edit:game is 100% from ps2 maybe that will help
Hey! It sounds like it could be Diddy Kong Racing, although I don't think it was on PS2. I played it on my nintendo ds.
No, it wasn't actually racing game, na track, no minimap, no positions :/

There's an old-ish game that I played in my teens (about 10 years~ ago).
I am pretty sure it was a mobile phone game, but I could be wrong.

?You play as a man, and you go to a mental asylum or hospital, I think it's to do with your wife, but that might be wrong.
? You were supposed to stay out of the dark areas or you'd take damage or be killed or something
?You had to navigate through the areas using lights as cover
? I think you had a flashlight of some sort but I'm unsure/may be wrong
? You could turn things(lamps and light sources) around and move certain objects
? I remember vaguely getting outside where there was a gated area... it kinda reminded me of a graveyard fence.
?I think you had to fight a boss of some sort at the end of the level, using light to kill it

Does anyone know wtf this game is? It's driving me crazy not remembering the name.

Hello guys.
I'm a new member and I need your help to find a game that I have played about 20 years.
I don't remember the title. The game's intro is about a squad go at a location to kill a female monster that can transform anybody in monster to her army. Your squad has been caught, except you, and transformed in monsters. You are alone versus them.
The angle of the camera is upstair, like RTS. This is a Shooter, maybe Adventure. And this game is on PS1 or, maybe on Dreamcast.
I need your help please. I want to play this game again.
Thank you all and Have a Nice Day.

Hi. I made this account because I've been searching for this game title in google when I played it when I was a kid on PS One but I don't remember anything that will make me remember the title and I'm not sure how to explain this but I'll try my best and hopefully someone can help me haha. So the game is a 2 Player co-op. Before the start of the game there will be an option where Player 1 will be the Guy and Player 2 will be the Girl or Player 1 will be this big guy and Player 2 will be this small kid, and each of them has their own Ability? Power? As far as I remember the Player 1 guy uses this uppercut thingy and when you use it there will be a green aura? that surrounds him while mid-air and the Player 2 girl's ability is like spinning like a drill towards the enemy xD while being surrounded by the same thing that surrounds the guy when he uses his ability but this time it's red. I don't really remember much of the game but it's a fighting action game. I'm not really good at explaining but I hope someone can help me. Thanks you guys.

Hi I cant remember the name of one of the games I played around the years 2004-2005. It was a strategy game with 4 clans or kingdoms and each clan represented an element. There was this king who could make earthshatters and create green structures that give power. The fire clan king was old and evil he could summon demons and witches. The air amazone queen could tame creatures and her servants were half-animals half-humans type creature. The water clan was very good with ships and had priestresses. I dont recall he exact name but I remember calling it Kingdom with my brothers but I tried to find it and couldnt. I think the studio was an indie company with a dog chasing a bone on the logo or soemthing. There was also a story mode for each clans.

i'm not sure where i played it at but the game was in an isometric map you had 3 characters/ mecha each one represented by an anime picture character and you had to make your way against a number of mecha enemies the game plays like chess almost you have your spaces you need to walk to reach a good firing point and navigate your path throughout the map each square you walk takes an advancing point and the mission ends when you defeat all enemies, i'm not sure if it's a browser game or anything else but i did play it on the PC any idea what this game maybe called?
