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.
Micro-man. game came on a game collection cd I’ve never been able to find it online with the rest of the games
AIV Network$ (A4 Networks) - I searched for years, the name didn't make it easy to find.
Legends of Kesmai for me, I used to play it on AOL.
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.
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.
Mine was a GameCube game that was my first RPG outside of Pokemon. All I could remember was the coverart being a kid with a big machine arm on his back. Took me till probably 2011 to figure out what it was.
It was Evolution Worlds. I immediately bought it so I wouldn't forget it again. Played it and had fun till I got locked in an area where you have to beat a boss, but I was ill-equipped and I couldn't leave from where I saved to grind or get more items.
3d third person shooter with a female protagonist. Late 90 or early 2000s. Think something like Tomb Raider, but I am pretty sure it was not Tomb Raider. I don't remember much, aside from the tutorial level being in some kind of Portal chamber / Aperture Science like sterile tiled floor and walls with various lights. If I remember correctly, the first real level was in an old big multi store warehouse or club house.
For me it is a ski racing game that looks like about 2005 or 2009 type of game and has a sort of athletic/olympic winter games type of vibe.
Was it SSX?
Doesnt look like it.
Additionally it was also a PC game on Windows XP.
Waku Waku 7, very silly fighter
For me it was a game that used to be on Adult Swim's website, it was a top-down open world pizza delivery game in the style of the first two Grand Theft Auto games. You had to deliver pizzas to some funny characters without crashing and damaging them or running over too many pedestrians and getting caught by the police. With the exception of mimes and guys in hot dog costumes which gave you bonus points, of course. You'd get fired if you got caught by the police too many times or wreck too many pizzas.
Ended up finally finding it last year, it's called Pizza City. It's no longer on Adult Swim, but has thankfully been preserved on other sites like Kongregate and archive.org. Still holds up to this day as a fun game!
For me it was two Mac games.
Dinopark Tycoon (I went back to play it and I somehow did worse than my elementary school self, loool)
The other game I never found but it was on the same computer. It was a point and click puzzler where you played a character that looks very similar to the character in the modern game Braid. You start, stranded on a beach and worked your way inland. It had a creepy vibe due to the aesthetics.
I have had a lot over time : Motherload Idk the name anymore, but something like fighter Z, a space invaders like game were enemies scroll in as you blast things away with a super jet. A space discovery game, was in Norwegian. A mystical signal arrives and you need to research it and eventually send out a space ship.
I was reminded of another i missed, Sinjid: Shadow of the Warrior. A ninja fighter flash game.
Last one I guess I might be missing was a 2d like game where the word was blocks like Minecraft but square board levels, angled like a diamond, I think it's called isometric. sorta like the q*bert games I think. Don't remember much of the goal, but walk around and collect gems I think. I believe most levels were mostly green grass and water/rivers separating areas. Main character might have been a girl.
I recently re-discovered Deathtrack.
I got you fam, it's called NewZealand Story. https://www.myabandonware.com/game/the-new-zealand-story-679
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.
