>ITT: We help people find/name games from their childhood they don't remember
Pretty sure it was an N64 game. It was a fighter-game like Mortal Kombat but with different characters, and a much grittier almost Horror/Steampunk vibe. All the characters were typical "gross edgy gore". One guy I liked to play as had a Helicopter Sawblade/Flamethrowers, and there was a fish-guy who would vomit acid or something.

Holy shit that was fast. Just fuckin' Youtubed it and sure as shit yep
I actually rewatched an old Maximillian video of him beating the final boss on the hardest difficulty the other day, that's why I had it in mind
I used to love this game, it's not a great fighter but it's fun
I'll give it a shot.

A search with relevant terms of yours landed me a game called "Sitting Ducks"...
That one? You gotta specify platform too. That helps.
Oh wow, thanks so much dude.
I was starting to feel that it just was a fever dream and such game never existed.
Welp, now I know what game I have to finally finish.
Awesome! No prob!
Here's a harder one (You can ignore it if too hard, I don't mind, probably completely wiped out):
>Puzzle game
>It is a shareware game. Not sure if it needed a simple serial key or something. (Take a good note on this, this is the part I remember the best)
>Gameplay was focused on cogs... I'm not sure what was the goal, but I think you had to move every cog that appears, conjoining them with the rest of cogs.
>Looked pretty browny and Steampunk-like as far as I remember.
>I remember each cog having a certain ability for the puzzle to solve. Each level having certain peculiarities (Normal cogs, cogs with abilities, etc)
It's completely fine if you can't find it. It's been years since I saw that game, I was a kid, after all, lol.
Probably too obvious but Cogs?
Has a demo, has steampunk artstyle, and different kind of cogs.
It's app 26500 on steam.
Once in a while I’ll remember this game and it’ll annoy me that I don’t know what it is.
>Third person
>Woman with backpack that has a cat face design or something like that
>She has various electronic gadgets you can use
>Non-anime game
It’s similar to bloodrayne but that’s not it. I don’t know what it is and it’s annoying as hell. Game was made pre-2010.
All I remember is third person woman and weird backpack. I also think she could do acrobatics similar to bloodrayne. Not Tomb Raider either obviously.
WELL
OF
SOULS
NIGGUH
I... Ummm... Not sure...
I remember the game being different.
Remember, I said it was a shareware... If there's a Shareware of Cogs (Which I doubt heavily), then this one may be an iteration of that game... But yeah, nice try, lol.
Again, keep "Shareware" in mind, folks.
Platform? All I am getting are girl backpacks, haha.
PC. It’s difficult to Google since random things come up matching the words.
Alright, time to give it a try
>Old deep space exploration game
>3 factions: Humans, Orange non-humanoid aliens and literal crystals
>You drill asteroids for resources
>The aliens had drone units that had to use incubators to upgrade into normal fighting units
>One of the aliens looked like a cuttlefish that spew out smaller aliens to do damage
That's all I can remember for now.
Diablo-like MMO I saw my older cousin play back in like 2003, got told it was old MU online but it doesn't look exactly what I remember. Were there any other gritty Diablo-like MMO's like that back then?
What's that one PS1 game where your like a cop in the future? It's a driving game and I think you can switch vehicles (helicopter) maybe. I remember it being difficult as a kid and restarted the beginning over and over.
This is a stupid request because I don't remember enough details about the game and It does not have anything unique about it but doesn't hurt to try.
>PC
>Generic military shooter game with red and blue teams
>You could get on vehicles with 4 seats, either as a gunner or as the guy who drives. I remember bots being able to drive too.
>Had/Only had Capture the Flag mode
>Terrain was a big desert
At this point I doubt the game even existed.
Do you remember what features it had? Was it anime-like? Or human-like?
Maybe stat options or perks help the search better.
Heh... Starcraft?
I can't seem to remember an old NES game. You play as a guy with a ponytail i think, not sure, he has a dagger or a short sword, he can double jump (the second jump animation was a flip i think). I remember a stage where you are on some old victorian-like rooftops, and then another stage where you are inside a laboratory.
>Game was a collection of "minigames" for PC
>Remember the CD had an image of several people inside what looked like a minivan
>Was most likely a promotional game for either a Seat or Peugeot minivan (altough I'm not sure on what brand the vehicle was, or if it even was a minivan in the first place
>Only sections I remember was a James Bond type parody of entering a buiding and a arcade shooter-type section
Unironically can't find anything about it online, I've given up several times.
It looked western, high contrast and dark colors. First area was a plains/forest area obviously which used a really dark green for it's grass. Can't remember exactly but I think some elements of it were sprite-based.
It was a game either on the PS1 or N64. You could play as multiple animals with various abilities, one of which was a dragon that could walk in lava. There was a construction level of some kind.
Nope, it wasn't starcraft.
I can say for sure that the game didn't look like starcraft.
It was a first-person point and click game in a somewhat dark fantasy setting. I remember that you start off as a prisoner in a cell and to escape you had to make a pile of bones and skull to escape. There was also a moment when you had to make a mixture to make an animals angry to create a distraction.
Found one similar called "Ancient Evil".
Is that the one?
By the way, guys. I'm not the OP. The OP probably fucked off once he found his game, lol.
Reminds me of Battlefield 2. Don’t think many games like that existed back then. Could be Day of Defeat but I doubt it.
Pc game to teach kids, had three main characters one which was a bird I think , also mini games including a snake with hats or point and click and identify wildlife based on seasons.
Thanks for trying to help but no, it didn't look as good as the ones you mentioned. Also I kind of remember it being in third person mode but I might honestly be remembering a game that never existed.
Can you at least give us the genre and platform? fuggen hell
Found it on my own, pretty sure it's 'Crime Killer' if anyone else is interested.
I sincerely don't know if I dreamed this up completely but maybe it's real, most of the details are hazy so bare with me
>Probably at least 10 years old
>Turn-based, something like Wasteland during combat
>Protag was something like Indiana Jones I think, with a group
>Remember some sort of blimp flying over a canyon and being shot down
>Then entering a town
>I think it was an indie game
I know it's all rather vague and limited but maybe someone recognises something?
Blinx the Cat?
Room Escape: Prison Break
nah sorry
RTS, maybe a russian RTS. Gameplay is very similar to Swarm Assault, no resources, no base building, only construction time for units. Most units are all sorts of tanks in game, no infantry and ultimate units are mecha. Goal is similar on every map, capture all enemy bases. You capture them by destroying them and then holding units near it. I WANNA FINISH LAST MISSION BUT I CAN'T FUCKING FIND IT. I even tried asking on all sorts of forums. I think you could have find it as demo version on some discs, yeah it is old.
Was looking for this one for years
>action third-person shooter
>PS1 or 2 (not sure)
>lava level and being chased by a HUGE boss, something like a big cyborg or maybe a mutant
>had to run on paltforms that he destroyed as he was chasing you
>protagonist looked like a cool army dude
Thats all i can think of. Played it as a kid and at the time this was the best thing i ever saw since i never got to own a console, only an old atari from my cousin.
Ps1, 3rd person adventure platformer. Aesthetics were vaguely claymation-like. The setting was about dream worlds and dream exploration.
>genre
I wish I remembered. I think it was an RTS?
>platform
PC
Some extra facts I remembered:
>During the main plot-line aliens make an peace with the humans so they can both fight the crystals
>Aliens had a squid unit that attached a proboscis to enemy units
>Humans had carriers that could deploy smaller ships
>Humans' main support ships could attach a chain to the asteroids in order to haul them closer
I'm sorry but I can't remember more.
Alundra? Not very clay-like but def meets the other criteria
It's not Myth of Soma is it?
Azure Dreams?
Please help anons i want to play this piece of shit again
>You stood in one place and could only move your mouse
>You shoot soldiers and helicopters and shit
>It's in first person
i know it's hard but if you guys recognize that shit tell me
No, it was a human woman wearing a backpack in the style of a cat’s head. She could use gadgets from it. Had grenades and guns in the game. No swords or anything like that.
I always remembered it because of how stupid that backpack was. I also think the cat ears flopped around when she ran and she was acrobatic to the point you could do cartwheels and all that.
If I’m not mistaken she could also use the backpack for something where she had to take it off and wait in the area for it to complete hacking or whatever. I remember because if you left the area you’d get a warning to go pick it up. It was something like that. The backpack was crucial to her and the entire game.
It was a PC game, likely exclusive. Made between 2003-2007 most likely. Definitely not pre-2000 or after 2010. I think I played it on Windows Vista.
Dreams to Reality?
I also remember owning it on my windows XP, so there's that.
No but thanks for the contribution anons
Fucking well done lad, thanks
Can't rembember anything except for this small section of the game:
>MC is had a sword
>i think he looked a bit like samurai jack
>he's getting chased by some flying monsters that looked like some gray fat winged worms or something like that
>he fights some of them and tries to escape
>he gets into an orange elevator like those in a construction site
>then one of the flying things appears right behind him and he gets spooked
And that's all i remember, it was a game from the n64/ps1 era, sorry i really can't recall anything else
Anyone?
This'll probably be tough, but I'll go from what I can remember
>PS1, some kind of vehicular combat game like Twisted Metal
>you're driving through levels shooting shit and there's boss battles
>the only vehicle I can remember was called the Violator that had an attack where it shot out two electric tentacles that tore things apart
>another was a big 4WD looking vehicle that shot out blue projectiles that looks like big crowbars
Mate, try to be patient. No one has gotten mine yet, lol.
>PC puzzle game
>It's about a mad scientist who gets his brain switched with a lab rat and the rat is the NPC "host" for all the games
>There was one about remembering the periodic table, another one about trying to get marbles into holes on a wavy checkerboard field
Most likely not it, but your description reminds me of Edmark's ____ House series
Found mine, it's The Lost Mind of Dr. Brain
I have two games that have been impossible to find
>both from the early 2000s, both on PC
>first is a 2d platformer where you play as a red-haired guy, you move and jump around on trees and grassy lands collecting gems, visuals were generic pixel art
>second is a 2d vertical scroller game where you play as a frog climbing up a tree and catching insects with your tongue, the art style wasn't that cartoony or realistic, somewhere in-between but all the different insects and frogs had realistic proportions and detailed designs
Both of these games are from my childhood and I'd like to revisit them sometime while I still remember them
>Ps1
>3d plattformer
>Very colorful , a level set in some mines where there are huge crystals.
mine/cave
The protagonist in this one is not a frog, but the rest of the description matches
This was one of the games in the collection, not sure what the main 3 characters were. What was the name of this game in the pic?
Also another one
>Ps1
>Top down shooter
>You control a very cool guy(futuristic?) and the city is destroyed, apocalyptic atmosphere,very cool futuristic weapons also.
Wild 9?
That one's Sammy's Science House
>blue crowbarlike projectile
Sounds like Rogue Trip
this one is a long shot, but my friend keeps bugging me about it. it was some indie game I saw posted her ages ago, lookd like a fairly standard megaman-esque platformer, I think the main character was an animal. everything was normal until you got to the first boss, which was like an alligator man or something, and then suddenly everything started flashing colors and the boss fucking grabs his hp bar and chucks it at you. any ideas?
Silent Bomber?
Loaded/RE:Loaded
one of the croc games?
>On Mac (well, a demo disc for Mac, possibly PC too)
>Civ-like or city builder
>~18th Century Feel
>Battles were more like skirmises on a static Hex map
>Units had things like Minutemen and Militia
>Foxholes were also a thing
>End of turn would display the turn's events in the form of a newspaper cover ie "Balsackia open trade disputes against neighbouring Taintistan!"
>Themes of turn-of-century industrialization
Powerslide maybe?
Help me out, this one has been at the back of my mind for at least 2 years, trying to remember.
So it was a kind of turn-based strategy game for PC, must have come out around 1999-2000 based on my age at the time. It was themed around the Wild West, and there were (I think) 3 playable characters, 2 guys and a girl. They were all cowboys and in the game you had to move them around a Wild West style town and kill enemies. You had a revolver and other period weapons. It had a kind of isometric viewpoint. I got a demo CD of the game in a cereal box (in the UK).
That was a giant spaceship, at least tutrial stage aside. Great game though.
gamboy original game where you are a little guy, maybe a spy or something and you can wear different hats to get different specials. and no it isn't wario or Kirby
>flash like game on pc around the year 2000
>it was fps kinda like doom
>theme waa going around the mall and some smiley faces would come and you had to kill em
>i think popcorn healed
>when the monster were near they would do a quick and creepy "heh heh"
Any ideas? You had to open a website to play it it wasn't download/install.
Looks pretty interesting but unfortunately it's not the same game. Thanks user
Was this for Mac? Sounds like a demo for game called “Starbound” or “Starbound II”. The races available were humans with the best weapons tech, centipede-ish aliens called the Ceptrians with best shield tech, and yellow floating crystal aliens that could churn out units cheaply and quickly.
Desperados?
I could be one of those but I remember the game being very very dark
See and
I remember reading on Random Insanity on GameFAQs around 15 years ago someone posted in a creepy thread that they had a supposed NES game that had a shop keeper, and if you talked to him several times without buying anything he would go "O_O" (as described by the user) and the music would stop or make a weird creepy sound effect. I remember this post ocassionally like twice a year and wonder what even was it? Any clue?
Probably not
Maybe
I got one.
>It was on N64
>3D environment be beat-em-up
>You could play as (I think 4) different characters but the levels were the same
>One character was super buff and could rip the motor out of cars and use it as a weapon
>First level started outside some building at night
>There may have been guns that disappeared after using up their one clip
Looking for the name of an old ass Macintosh game.
2D side-scroller with 2D sprites. You play as a dog and you're trying to save your dog gf from aliens. If I remember correctly, you can shoot toast at them.
In the last level, you fight a UFO and after it dies, you fight your computer's CPU.
Nes/or genesis(pretty sure NES). Platformer you had the ability to transform into something else, or could take over enemies (Cant recall just remember being able to fly or jump high). I has been driving me insane for decades. Not altered beast nor is it Little Nemo.
Fuck i am searching for the same. The girl had poker card and could seduce and one of the Guy was a doctor too
Fighting Force?
Avenging Spirit?
Low G Man? You could hijack vehicles and jump really high in that.
There's also the Adventure Island series with the ridable dinosaurs.
Yeah, that sounds like Desperados.
Preemptively posting one.
I used to play a game in school (early 2000s?) that taught you typing. You were like an explorer or something. I remember climbing a mountain as you typed.
Help bros.
2D racing game on PC similar to Mario Kart but all the karts were driven by animals, I think there were a shark and a tiger as characters
I just shed a single tear, my nigga. Thank you.
Wacky Wheels.
Z?
I think it's a JRPG where a brother and a sister meet a girl which doesn't speak English and another one of the mystery girls species tries to kill said girl also I think that there's a planet dangerously close to colliding with the starting planet
For a moment I though it was that literal dumpster fire biblical game but that was 3d
Yeah that's it, thanks user! It's my earliest videogame memory from around 20 years ago. Crazy.
bump
Makes me think of Metal Slug, there was a 3d game on ps2 but I never played it.
Imperialism, also has a sequel.
