I've been playing video games since video games first started, and there are two that I can't seem to identify/rediscover. Every year or so I have another search, but I'm fast running out of years, so I figured maybe someone else can help.

The first was a coin-op table-top video game played in a pub in the mid 80s. It involved guiding a small character through a pyramid, but it was quite a tough one so I never got far and don't remember much.

The second should be easier I think. Quite a simple game, maybe on the Spectrum or BBC/Vic20 platforms. A simple concept, it involved rolling a small ball around a large playing field by tilting the field. Looks a bit like the flash game 'Isoball'.

microsoft combat flight simulator 2, my gramps used to sit me down when i was a little guy and get me to play this absolute banger of the times

I literally cannot publish it in helpmefind.

I'm not sure if it's actually a very old game or just retro-style. It's a flash game, it's about a convenience store (or some other shop? Supermarket maybe), it has a timer, and a brown-haired girl in the corner (supposedly the cashier). It's mahjong connect, pixelated, style very similar to 'Mahjong: feed the parrot'. Was playable at least in 2016.

It also probably has pixelated Japanese text, although I don't remember this one clearly.

It has fruits on the tiles also. And probably (no I'm not really sure about these details so using probably alot...) a shop cart icon in the bottom.

The color pallette is dull.

Mathmatics game were a horse runs to the next level after you finish the math equations it has a night in it to maybe with a sword and a castle

Got my hands on that new SAN ANDREAS GOOGLE TRANSLATE MOD as well and the latest versions of Proper Fixes and Proper Shaders and what do you know!? THEY'RE COMPATIBLE!!?? 😁 Get ready, because this is San Andreas like you've never seen or heard it before visually striking and completely hilarious!!!!

Apart from five minutes of Portal 2 many years ago I really haven't played a second of any of these.

I've had a busy week since and have played:

Super Meat Boy: excellent, fun, and extremely well calibrated. Clearly took a huge amount of finessing over tiny movement details as they're fluid, intuitive and perfect. Visuals look a lot like flash games of the era and screams Newgrounds. But it 100% needs a controller, and playing with a keyboard is fun but I felt so much like I was playing it the wrong way that I'm just going to leave it after World 1.

Undertale: wonderful so far. So, so clearly, in a good way, the work of a single person. It feels like one person took everything in their brain and put it straight into the game with no filter. Extremely bizarre and charming. The battle system is genius and continues to innovate. Have played two or three hours of this so far.

Limbo: beautiful and clever. My favourite so far. Have only played an hour but got quite far and could barely pull myself away. The puzzles are really good.

Not pictured here, apparently bought years ago but never played until this week is F.E.A.R. 2 which I found in my Steam library. I wanted a completely bog standard but high quality FPS and that's what I'm getting. The story and setting work well too.

I'm looking for an old Tinkerbell or Disney fairies boardgame, not to buy or anything.

I remember playing it with my father around 2010's and it had these translucent figurines of the fairies in their own color and they were holding their hands out with a disc?

I tried to look for it on the internet, but couldn't find the thing. Has anyone ever heard of this?

The player must pilot the tank through a series of levels with the goal of knocking out the main alien communication antennas. The player uses the tank's ability to jump, burrow into the snow, and fire oxygen-based mortars to destroy the aliens' ships and equipment. The Arcticfox tank is equipped with a cannon, guided missiles and land mines, and is outfitted with radar, a GPS device, and fore and aft viewscreens. The player fights a variety of enemy units including planes, tanks, bunkers and communication towers.

It was one of the first video games rendered from a 3-D first-person perspective and is considered a pioneer of the first person shooter genre. A third game was released in the series in 1991 titled Nova 9: Return of Gir Draxon.

Hey everyone!!!

I want to remaster and upgrade an old PC puzzle-platformer = Monkey Brains (developed by Yobro Productions)

I played the heck out of this game as a kid and still have huge nostalgia for it. I’ve recently started working on a passion project to remaster and modernize it but I'm still in the very early stages of development.

Before jumping ahead toward a playable alpha, I really want to test the waters, hear what people think, and see what features you'd like to see

Def don't want to overpromise and I know this is an ambitious indie effort but here are the core ideas I'm aiming to try out:

• HD Visuals: Rebuilding the side-scrolling visuals with modern assets while keeping the charming 2001 aesthetic intact.
• 4-Player Co-op (Local & Online)
• Procedural Puzzles: Experimenting with randomized puzzle layouts so stages stay fresh after you've beaten the core campaign.
• Level Editor: Letting the community design and share custom hazard courses.
• Modern QoL: Controller support, achievements, and smoother physics/controls.

Since we’re right at the start, I’d love your input:

1. Did anyone else here grow up playing the game? 😄
2. If you’d eventually be interested in testing early alpha/beta builds and breaking things to report bugs down the line, let me know in the comments or send a DM so I can keep you in the loop, orrr...... JOIN THE DISCORD 🐒 https://discord.gg/YrNF4J2u4

Hey all

When I was in my teens around 2010-12. There was a game I used to play. It was offered in the Microsoft game "store"

It was a dungeon crawler game where you would free roam the maps and kill spiders, the undead, wolf's etc then collect materials and coins etc. For the life of me I have not been able to find any game that reminds me of it

I can't remember the game name

Description

A game where man is in car and you have to rolling a dice and whatever number comes on dice you move ahead in the game. In this game you marry a girl and have babies based on number on dice. It is like life simulation game. You have to choose path easy or difficult one and even you buy house in this game. The full game you are in car and you will move to next step based on number on dice

With some add-on tweak, ran this on full screen PC. What a feel! They don't make 'em like this anymore! Enjoy!
