It’s a great way to play games in something like sn emulation box. I just installed it yesterday on my emuelec station.

Took me two decades to find the game [Dominus]. Nothing worse than having the name of something on the tip of your tongue for that long. Used to play this game a lot when I was young, it’s not very good but it was a core memory. I cried a bit when I figured it out.

I was thinking of the Firewall, and was a bit surprised - seemed outside your normal wheelhouse. This makes a lot more sense, lol.

I once played a first-person point-and-click adventure game featuring a player character who is a cyborg. I don’t remember much about the game, but I do recall quite explicitly that it had a Hard Rock Cafe in the game. Haven’t had any luck finding it.

A very simple space sim that was just sitting in a folder that was either part of windows or one of my installed games, presumably an Easter egg for those just perusing the files. Maybe late nineties?

Like, the simplest starfield and cockpit and you just used the mouse to shoot lasers at stuff.

All of the sound files (only maybe a dozen sound effects at most) were in .wav format so I used the crappy mic I had at the time and recorded new sounds just with my mouth. Had a blast playing my “modded” version.

Haven’t figured out what it was/what “real” software it came with.

lookorex,

Sounds like an old Excel easter egg

Croc 2! I love him so much.

Old computer game, never have been able to remember the name. It was a sci-fi setting. I distinctly remember taking a ship of some sort and attacking multiple-legged walkers. I don’t think it was a Star Wars game. You didn’t just control the aerial vehicles as there were also grounds vehicles. You could change out weapons on the vehicle before the mission. There’s a line that has stuck with me though: “You’re replaceable, the (ship thing) isn’t”. I remember it coming in a PC game subscription service from the mid 90’s. I think the service was called SOMC or something along those lines. It’s where I also learned of SWARM and 7 Kingdoms. I still have yet to this day been able to find that sci-fi game, or even the subscription service (or evidence of its existence) again.

weckhorst,

Could it be Earthsiege 2 by any chance?

Mine was a flash game, I think on miniclip. Sort of like a tower defense game but it also had a point and shoot cannon you’d use. Sort of near future kind of vibe. I think it had a green background due to being on a field. Top down. Main cannon was a big white one and you would build auto turrets to help defend.

Surprised I haven’t seen Hell Pie here yet. Pretty solid physics and fun mechanics. The humor is a bit crude and sometimes kinda edge-lord l, but the game play is solid.

Ruffy and the Riverside. Really interesting concept with editing terrain and your environment.

Gex Trilogy is pretty good if you’re into old-school platformers. It aged better than I thought.

Megabonk is basically 3D vampire survivors, and that rules.

Racing game, late DOS, possibly early Windows. Three “eras” of American cars. There might have been loops. Cockpit-view only I believe. Possibly some sort of jet/boost.

Micro-man. game came on a game collection cd I’ve never been able to find it online with the rest of the games

oh good are we remembering old video games

What’s that one that’s like spy vs spy where you fight a clone of yourself? Would’ve been windows 95/98 era

I think it was educational

Anyone else think of Another World / Out of this world?

It came as a demo with so many games. Finally played it a decade or so ago. It was pretty good.
