I just thought of it for the first time in years... it was a game out in the early 1990s, and they had multiple sequels to it. It reminded me of Calvin and Hobbes and Spaceman Spiff, as you're a kid that goes into space and you fight blue aliens.
Old Games you remember playing but can't remember the name of.

Anyone got any ideas? Not really that fussed about the adventure game, but this co-op space shooter is really playing on my mind!xos1994 said:I don't think so, as far as I'm aware there wasn't any opportunity to purchase weapons. I think it was just a case of an enemy would drop a power up and you'd fly over it to change your weapon. It looks similar though!Dusan Z. Misic said:Is maybe the first game Warblade?xos1994 said:
It wasn't Evil Zone was it? I just don't remember a photographer.Alex O said:
I'm looking for a game I remember next to nothing about. It was on PS1 and you start next to your spaceship. It was a 2D game and all I remember was running to the right, shooting some aliens and running back to my ship because you could jump on top of it where it was safe. I remember it was all very brown looking and every time you jumped you rolled into a ball. It's been haunting me for years.
Sounds a bit like Heart of Darkness, except there you can only jump next to where the ship landed and not back on it.Siantology said:
More specifically, since you mention blue aliens, that would likely be Commander Keen episodes 1, 2 and 3, the "Invasion of the Vorticons" series. (There was also "Goodbye, Galaxy", which is Keens 4, 5 and 6.)RelativityMan said:
Looking at the screenshots of Galatron, it wouldn't be DemonStar by Mountain King Studios Inc, would it?xos1994 said:
Ok, so a friend lent me this game years ago and I've been looking through game lists and cannot find it anywhere. So I've come to this... I'm going to try to describe it and see if anyone can guess it. Also, it is not Darkstone, but has very similar graphics and came out in the 98-2001 range.
It's a top down 3D RPG on PC(windows) with a very crude block lighting system where it fased to black after like 20 "feet". You start the game coming off of a small paddle boat on a river as you are returning home to see your father. You talk to a fisherman and the take the path to go to town or to your fathers house. The camera can rotate around and do some zooming. There are a few caves at first where you fight bears and stuff. There's some magic spells and you find some evil wizard cult has either killed or taken your father and they are after you too.
That's about as much as I can remember.
I remember the jewel case had very black artwork. I think it was 2 discs. the name escapes me, its like darkrune or dragonseed or something, but definitely not Dark Stone though very much like it.
EDIT: NM FOUND IT SOULBRINGER Found on Pintrest of all places.

Hi guys, so i joined the forums to digout two ancient flash games that i used to play all the time back in the day, but somehow i forgot the name of them and i have been wondering ever since.
The first game is basically a kid that stands behind a big person. The kid is only trying to do something harmful or harmless to the big guy inorder to go next in the line infront of a resturant or a cafeteria. the game gives the player many stuff and weapons to try out on the big guy such as nails, itching powder and such. all of those stuff and weapons usually backfire on the kid and harms him and not the big guy. the outro of the flash game had a cartoonish wooden plank with words on it.
The Second flash game is of basically a boring office day with workers just doing their work. the player can choose actions that can change the office into something fun like a disco night club, a paperplane fight and other funny things that can be turned into.
These are the two of many games that i would love to play again..
I will be extremely thankful to whoever got the strongest memory around this forum that can remember the names of those two games i mentioned.

I've been trying to find the name of an old early 90's(?) pc game for over a year now. One of those gems that were terrible, you never made progress in, but you always tried to play it.
All I can really remember about it is you started on a space station where you could travel to different rooms and interact with things. There might have been a few people you could talk to with that horrible 90's face animation. There was a tube of food paste you could eat endlessly that made a really disgusting chewing noise. The main part of the game was travelling down to the planet where you fought robots or some such. I can't remember much else, except I think the box art had giant spider looking things with bland round bodies. It might have been one of those cheapo games you'd find at K-Mart.

Hi, recently i was thinking about a game I used to play as alittle kid, i had it on my old pc that didnt even have use mouse at the time. In the game you played as a guy escaping from mansion full of zombies, later on it was werewolves and vampires in caves. I never finished it so i would like to do so now. it was 2D, colorless and you couldnt fight back, just avoid and run. if it will be any help, that pc didnt have desktop like nwe have but some kind of menu to navigate through programs and just one button to turn on ond off. if anyone knows what im talking about please let me know.
I remember Heart of Darkness quite well, this game is older I believe, or at least it looks much older in graphical styleRelativityMan said:
Hi, I hope someone can help me. This is back from the 90's. There used to be Demo CD's which sometimes had game demos and sometimes little videos of games. Well, there is this one game that I was always curious about but never got to play and never found to buy. It's a graphic adventure with futuristic scifi looks. In the video you could see some spaceships and some characters walking around. The thing that, I hope can recall someone of which game I'm talking about is that there seemed to be a mix of humanoid animals amongst the characters. I think there was this like lion headed character with like a spacesuit walking on the surface of the planet. I don't know, if anyone has any idea of what I'm takling about I would really apreciate some help! Thanks!
a game i used to play on sega mega drive i think it was
all i can remember are the very cartoony style of graphics and that one part involved being inside a ship like a cruise ship i think and it was sort of filling up with water and you had to get out in time or something, rented from blockbusters way back in the day, its annoying that i cannot remember more, the only other thing i can remember was it definitely being a family friendly game, mother dear was very strict on what games i was allowed to play way back when
