Hello,

searching for a windows xp game, played it back in 2005 I think.
It was a jump and run/platformer game, the main character was blue and there were bombs that would run towards you, if they spot you.
There was a level where you had to jump from platform to platform inside a tree.
Thats all I can remember right now. If I remember more, I will edit my post.

Thanks in advance.

ALRIGHT! This has been driving me nuts. 15+ years old, the game was a scifi/empire building game. You start out with a single planet and you mine, gather colonists, expand, etc. Nukes and bio weapons that you dropped onto other empires planets and then took them over. Some of the ships were ship-looking, one was a smiley-face... Uh... Shields and combat, in order to get from one part of the grid to the other you had to get a jump-drive... It had a random automated chat that the other empires would occasionally use to taunt you. The planets you dropped colonists on would start out as a small dot but would increase over time and the dot would grow... Uh... I know this is lame and not a lot of help. Anyone?

I don't think it was a published game with a box or whatever, but an indy developer.

Sound familiar at all?

Hello everyone)
Here's the game i want to find:
It was developed in ~2000-2007 for PC. It's a third-person action(/adventure?) game. There was a guy and his monkey friend(can't remember who was the playable character lol). One of them was kidnapped by a bad mage guy and another one is you. You need to save your friend by passing the 4 stages. At the beginning you can choose one of 3 different stages: the winter, some kind of desert, and the islands with pirates. Sorry, can't remember much from that times, but these are the main details. Thank you :D
I'm on my phone so I can't give a link but that's most likely 'Billy Blade and the Temple of Time' I loved that game :)

Hi everyone!
I've been following this forum and it's amazing!
Hopefully you will be able to end my 10 year search for a game. I mean, seriously, 10 years...
So, it's a PC game in 3D, I had it from some magazine in the late 90s, early 00s.
It can be played by 1-4 people, local. You play with some bird-like characters, flying around a long twisted tube (the World) to collect yellow crystals. Your objective is to collect them all. There are enemies, Red and Purple spheres (just like Pacman) always opening their mouths as they go along the tube. Each time they touch you with their mouth you lose all the crystals you collected. There are also purple crystals that make the enemies shrink for a while, so you can pass on the tube on their side without being attacked. There are in some levels portals that take you to a different part of the map.
The only name that comes to my mind is Bonanza or Bonzaga, something like that.
Please make my 10 year suffering end.
Thank you all :)

Hello in search of help! So, I remember this online computer game from about the mid-2000's that was on the Disney Channel site or some site associated with it, and basically in the game you are a boy/girl (I remember the girl was Asian with a pink stripe of hair?) and you build a store. The game is basically like a kid's game but there are different types of stores you can make like a comic store or the one I really remember is a candy store where they have weird machines that make the candy. So basically you will collect money from the machines and helping people and then you can add more machines as well as make ads or things like that. Please help if you can!!! Or also if you could tell me what that Disney Channel related site was that would be awesome!

Hello!

I am looking for the name of an online Sci-fi base building game from the early 2000s (maybe a bit before, but i doubt it)

Platform: PC (Windows)

Short description: Base building with some online RTS elements (the planet map was online and 3 factions competed for it and ressources). You had the option of buying small crates of ressources which could contain ship parts and buildings(unsure if it was paid with real cash or ingame ressources). You could invade other player bases with your avatar and ships. It was also possible to build outposts which would mine ressources for your faction.

The game was played from a third person perspective of your avatar. It had a blocky feel to it if I recall correctly.

I do know the game went under and the servers eventually closed(lasted only a year or two i believe), I just want to find out what the game name was.

EDIT: Found it, the name is 10six. Seems theres a revival named project visitor.

Im searching for an old platformer game which I probably played on Windows 95 or 98. I vaguely remember a knight-like character which could jump up and down platforms and attacked monsters coming from left and right. In the boss fight the boss would explode into gold coins and treasure. Any help would be greatly appreciated, been trying to find this one for a long time.
I know the bosses in "Gods" (1991) do that. But it's probably not a real uniqueness to the game.

Thank you so much! You're a hero.

I remember this one marble game that was on the school computers a few years back. basically you have a huge system of switches and metal railings that the marbles would slide down along and you had different goals, like line up the marbles in this sequence of colours or just get all the marbles to the bottom. Almost everything in the game was gold, brown or silver except for the marbles which were a whole bunch of colours depending on teh level. Hope someone can help me find it, it was really fun, haha

Almost Sounds like a Marble game I remember playing in school a few years ago as well...The name of that game was "Marble Blast"

Short description:

It's a game where you crontrol a tank (vehicle) with upgradeable threads and turrets. I remember you choose these upgrades from the main menu. You view the gamejust like a RTS style. You go through a lot of different environments,from hot to cold. In each level you must reach a goal(don't remember if you need to destroy something or pick an item) but on your way you encounter a lot of different enemies and also local alien plants/monsters if i remember. You also encounter structures and traps( lasers to avoid,shields) I may be wrong but the color of the tank was like desert orange, one turret was a double minigun,the first treads were moving very slowly, other treads were 6-wheels and a futuristic hovering one.

My story:

It's been bugging me for like 2 months trying to remember this game,all i have for now is this. I searched the internet MANY times but found notting,the forum didn't help(not may users had "tank"and "upgradeable" in their comments) As i remember i will post aditional details. Played this game when i was 6 so everything i remembered may be a little wrong. still the excitement of playing was enormous. God i hope i find this game..Thanks!!

Here goes nothing. I remember a adventure side scrolling game where you throw water/water balloons. I don't remember much about the game but i do believe the first level was a pier with long wooden pillars you could jump on.

Was it an arcade game? Because if so, my guess would be Liquid Kids [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sKU1FuVCgiM].

I've got one, I can recall an early 2000s game that resembled a military/tactical shooter/squad rpg (?)

-fully 3D world, can't recall it was first or third-person
-there were four squad members, I think all were individually controllable characters
-the squad interface reminded me of Jagged Alliance 2
-at one point, you had to attack a military base (?)
-once saw a webm of it posted on 4chan, your controlled squad member was shooting past a car and grenades were thrown

Cheers!
'Conflict: Desert Storm' or 'Conflict: Global Terror' perhaps?
Unfortunately not, the UI had more elements and was horizontal IIRC. It was also too early for 'Conflict: Global Terror'.

Hello. I've never used a forum so bare with me. I've been looking for a game for so long now. It's a game where you possess people. You're on a ship or something and you try to gain access to other parts of the ship. It was in first person view as well. Can you help me?
