Alright guys, so I have got a weird one. I have been looking for this game the past few hours and for the life of me, can't find it. I played it when I was very young, so I don't remember many details. All I remember is that it was a 2d sprite based platformer (like megaman), you played as a female character that would go through transformations as certain criteria were met (can't remember what they were), and she eventually started shooting magic out of her finger. She would hold her finger out like a kid pretending their hand was a gun, that's the main thing I remember. If I remember correctly, this was a demo on a ps1 demo disk, but I honestly can't say for sure. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
sounds like

Pandemonium! (1996)

Hey guys, here's the deal. I played it when I was quite young, years 2008-2012. I don't remember much of it. I'm sure it was on Shockwave, its design was cartoonish, the characters were riding skateboards, but it wasn't a game from the Thrash series. There was a purple haired girl and a blonde guy, too. I think the sky in the game was rather reddish, and there was a brick wall that was difficult for me to jump on. Anything in between is blank. I've been looking for it on Shockwave for past two weeks, with no luck. If anyone finds it, I'll be really thankful, thanks.

Hey guys I've been looking for a game for a very long time and I need your help.
I played it in on a PC somewhere around 2005-2006 but it's likely that it's older.
It's a side-scroller and from what i remember you start off right outside a pyramid.
You character has a red helmet(I think) and a jetpack. On top of the entrance of the pyramid I think there was a refuel or something that has to do with the jetpack.
You enter the pyramid and the background is black and the levels are typical side-scroller with things to kill or evade I don't remember.
Sadly that's all I recall :(. Thanks in advance !
P.S It's not "Super Solvers Ancient Empires" or "Cluefinders 4th Grade Adventures"

Hey People out there,
I am looking for a game, that is similar to Diamonds https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diamonds_%28video_game%29 .
I think it has a moving skull in the loading/start screen, and the level selection was also kinda like a level. I played it on PC.

thx for your help!

Hello! So i played on my Computer 1st person view shooter, it was at 2000-2004 if i remember right. Graphic was something like half-life 1 or so.
It was with modern\future weapons or it was future time
1st mission was at training base, at open air with some buildings and you start at corner. 2nd mission wont start, probably game was bugged :)

Also there was online mode or against players and\or computers? with 2 bases, yours and enemy, you can use some vehicles(and tanks?) and need to plant bomb at their main building to win.
Also at this online mode there was harvests that gather resources (to build new buildings\upgrades\buy vehicles?)

also checked "planetside 1"game, it looks simmiliar but game i looking for is different. there was single player, atleast training and 2nd mission that wont load for me back than :)

Thanks for any help :)

old game either snes or genesis i do believe. could even be nes. i remember playing it as a small kid with my uncle. but you can play two players. your both pirates. you kill ghosts and other pirates. and other baddies. its a 2d sidescroller. you run from level to level on a ship killing things. one pirate is red one is green. you can upgrade your swords and get diff weapons and powerups. i just cant remember what its called and its been bugging me for years. (not pirates of darkwater either. or pirates gold. or pirates gold edition)

as i search google i might remember it could have been ninjas fighting pirates and ghosts on a pirate ship. you could also go from top level to bottom level on the sails and beams of the ship.

better graphics, there are no snes nor genesis versions of this game..maybe it was on another platform, DOS, Amiga, etc..
I haven't seen another game with pirates vs. ninjas!

Hello! This one has been itching the back of my skull for the last two years. The title I'm looking for was released on the Original Xbox. It was an arcade flier (much like Rouge Squadron). You'd select your craft and the weapons for it prior to deploying into mostly-planetary levels, fighting in canyons etc. against an invading bug force. One of the main features of the game was the ability to lift assets and people underneath your craft. While moving assets like tanks and turrets, they'd continue to shoot at enemies as well. Positioning things and rescuing people prior to enemy waves attacking was common, as well as overall base defense. The alien invaders usual came in flying form, presenting you with a swarm at times. My google searches have proved futile. Any questions that would help narrow this down are more than welcome. Thanks for any help!

Hi I was wondering if someone knows what game would be this.
It was an old platformer (2000-ish) where the character was a yellow cylinder or something similar and all the level(s) were blue, it was very basic shaped, most of the level was made by blue squares

Still bumping this in hope someone knows what i'm looking for

Hello guys,
I'm also looking for an old PC game I just can't find.
I remember playing a game about 10 years ago. In this game you would be flying an aircraft in 3D shooting lazers and destroying enemy aicraft and bases (radars, hangars, .. ) and crystals would come out of destroyed enemies. You would collect these crystals and upgrade your lazers, adding more guns, etc based on the order and color of collected crystals.
You could also shoot the landscape basically making holes and ditches in mountains.
You would start each mission on a mothership and have to land back in it to end the mission.
Thanks!

I know this is probably a long shot but I really need help. So, you see, I used to play this game online when I was a kid. It's about a group of kids and they are in different places for example a circus, collecting things like gum and wire to put together for kind of like a mystery game? If anyone could help me that would be amazing!

could be

Defender (2002)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6JS1p6YabIc

because I remember rescuing people by lifting them in the older Atari version! I guess something similar happens in the Xbox version.

the collecting crystals thing reminds me to

Starfighter 3000 (1996)

of course, quite older...but check it out.

Alright, made an account for this thread. Currently in the process of reading through the absurd backlog but I'm not having luck, haha.

I have vague but persistent memories of a windows 98 or 95 game I played as a kid. probably sometime between '96 and '02. I don't remember there being any overarching objective, but there was a central hub with a number of math or word games you could click to. I'm pretty sure the person explaining things to you was a girl with long hair. The game I remember most vividly, I'm not sure if it had objectives, but it was a geometric coloring game, like stained glass, I think. You clicked on something on the left side of the screen to get to the game.

There might have been a dragon somewhere, and it may have been in a castle, but I also might be conflating that game's and another's (RR 2nd grade) aesthetic. Everything was cartoon/2D, but the colors weren't super bright? If anyone has any sort of recollection of this game, it'd be really validating to know b/c nobody I talk to has any idea what it was. Thanks in advance!

There was this game I used to play back in the 90s, about a camp which apparently a dog was the owner. The objective was to accomplish several "camp tasks", like a run to the lake or fire pit stories.

A particular level of the game was one of those fire pit stories, where you were given a story with blank spaces, where you were able to fill them with things like "ice cream sandwich" or so, and then a NPC would read your story...

The loading screen of the game was an apple, similar to the Apple logo.
