A puzzle game where each (2D) map spawns with lasers and corresponding targets, and sometimes mirrors etc. You get to place some mirrors, T pieces, beam splitters etc. and have to fulfill each target.
There are so many clones of this out now it's nigh impossible to find, especially as the game is literally just called Laser. This one's also a clone I think but I just love this particular one.
I did recently finally find it again after more than a decade of looking.
Septerra core legacy of the creator, a pc turn based rpg i got in the early 2000s in some multi game pack at walmart or something. took forever for me to find it using the early internet. Its a unique title, but highly forgettable.
Still on my list of games I wanna finish
I got you fam, it's called NewZealand Story. https://www.myabandonware.com/game/the-new-zealand-story-679
I recently re-discovered Deathtrack.
I remember the sound effects and one level… but not the name. Classic.
And not the gameplay or the system?
One of my earlier memories was playing a strange game I haven't been able to find again. All I remember is: you control a car (I think it has flower decals on it?) and can drive through a desert/canyon area. You can also press a key which makes a rotor come out of the top of the car, allowing you to fly it like a helicopter.
I have no idea what the gameplay was beyond that, but I'd love to find it again.
I used to have this symbian game that had a small dragon as the main character and accidentally deleted it from the phone it was on. Never found it again :(
At some point at some friend's place I played a slightly GTA-ish game but it was all 3D stick figures and just running from the police and shooting thr stick men with guns.
I think what I am looking for is a third-person shooter. Thanks for the tip anyway!
Oh ok, glhf
I got two im thinking of : One I am sure I can recover but hey, let's shoot for some engagement here, it was a sort of worms like but with pigs, were you could promote units to archetypes The second one I couldn't find on my searches, it was a PS1 game (I think) in which you constructed your Mecha for battle royale rounds, and you could buy parts or change chassis. I remember an arena on a sort of battleship or structure in the sea, but I was unable to retrieve the name of this game.
For the first it wasn't hogs of war was it? Never played it but do remember it being in a few mags.
It was definitely this one ! I remember playing it at a friend's house and having a blast
second game might be Armored Core?
I don't think so, but it keeps coming in my searches also, I guess I will try it to see if it fits my memories !
There’s a game on the school computers in the late 90s where you choose between 3 numbers for how far you move, you are racing to the bottom of the screen, and some shortcut squares let you drop down.
The Guardian Legend
That's me and this robot-like C64 game. You did levels and took over robots so you could take over stronger robots.
I do remember Seven Cities of Gold, but only because the game crashed so often I saw the loading screen more than the game itself
I played that. Paradroid, right?
It is!
I just remembered Jet Slalom because of this.
