!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.

Our Rules:

1. Keep it civil.


Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.


2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.


I should not need to explain this one.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.


Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

Yep, I have one of those. A side-scrolling scifi shooter for C64 from probably late 80s that I just remember a general vibe about. Not Nemesis, something where you fly above a sort of city. I have tried to remember its name for more than a decade probably.

One would think that there weren't that many of them but oh boy.

I haven't heard of that one, but no, wasn't that.

Also tried figuring this out with an AI but nope. I'm pretty sure I'm not hallucinating this game.

I have.

In fact, once I browsed through all the games in there and didn't find what I was looking for. It's so far ago and I was so young that I probably have a very distorted and overly positive view of what the game looked like.
