Yeah I never played Viking and also wouldn't suggest it because that seems like an obvious thing to say, practically a joke.

I've heard of the game, but never seen a second of gameplay, so...
You may as well not bother replying to my posts if it's to argue anything except concrete facts or your personal opinion. I still probably won't see it.

Just suddenly thought of a game I can't remember the name to. Was sorta doosex like, took place in an apartment complex/city(?), I just remember buying stuff from a drug dealer

Was sorta futuristic but not really, near future maybe?
It was 3D, maybe a 00s game? Probably late 00s. Might have been slavjank.

Maybe:

Hey, @rusty_shackleford, did you make some changes to the backend?
The above used to show the Steam info panels, but are now just hyperlinks.

And the mention seems to be broken as well, I see.

Edit: both are fixed now.

Second time that has occurred, not quite sure what is causing it but I have a few ideas. I'll probably have to go bisect the latest phpbb version later.

Oh ****, what a nostalgia rush you gave me. Got the chills on my neck. I forgot about this game. Have to play it now. I wonder if I was just a stupid kid or the game actually is as good as I foggily remember it.

p.s. @rusty_shackleford is getting senile. yikes. :rip:

EDIT:

:lol:
I quess I was just a dumb kid who liked half life/quake 2 gangsta ***** clone :ugeek:

It was bundled with the Voodoo 3dfx card, the first one (I think). So very early 3d. All I remember is that you were skiing downhill, I think collecting gems or coins. You were playing some sort of cartoon character, not a human it was more arcade and not realistic. Even back then I thought it was extremely ugly, probably only played it once or twice.

Any ideas?

Was it this guy ?



This is just some flash game remake but the real games are old, from around 1995-1999. Has different sections in the multiple games with a similar gameplay-loop like the one in the video.

trying to find an early 2000s isometric MMORPG with what would be referred to now as 'dieselpunk' aesthetics, was almost certainly pre-rendered graphics

A 2d swimming game released on the ps1. Your character would sit in a rubber ring and could move left and right to dodge incoming obstacles such as logs and rocks. As you’d get further down stream the river would change colour from blue to green to yellow to red, etc, and everything would get faster. your character would be positioned at the top of the screen and would face towards the bottom. It had 2 player split screen and you’d both have to survive. Been searching for this for years as me and my sister would play it every morning before school lol

I think it was on the Game Boy Advance, but I remember it was a sidescroller where you played a girl with a sword. Had a lot of cool features, like using hooks to go up and down ropes, you were able to hold onto ledges. You also had to save civilians while you tried to reach the level end.

Was it an actual skateboarding sports style game? If not it sounds like it could be Intelligent Qube which is the only sort of isometric-style view with a perpetually dark floor but it didn't have any minigames. What about Grid Run?

Maybe Loaded? Machine Hunters? Bedlam?

None of those. I don’t think the focus was on skateboarding it’s just how you’d manoeuvre your character around the map. The floor was completely flat with a few ramps. I think there were teleporters on top of the ramps which took you to a mini game. The character wore a red shirt and baseball cap I think. If I remember a few enemies walked about the map they were quite hard to avoid.

If you didn't mention it being PS1 and isometric I'd have thought maybe it was that old edutainment game Gizmos & Gadgets. What kind of minigames did it have?

Found it, it’s called 720 degrees from the PS1 game Arcade Party Pak:



Also reminded me of Klax which I completely forgotten about, as well as Smash TV. I think this is the same game that included Toobin.

I remember it having an actual inventory, either icon or tetris like.


As another one, an RPG with online multiplayer where the start has a big golden road in perhaps a wooded area. I strongly suspect this might in fact be Pool of Radiance: Ruins of Myth Drannor … but there's not a single gameplay video of the online multiplayer I can find.

Have you tried browsing old abandonware sites? When I was game collecting my 95 to XP era games, there were a lot of sites that had tons of the old 3d games of similar nature (also demos and non-US release titles). Maybe you will get a hit for them?

When I read tunnels aside from Stalker I see SCP https://www.scpcbgame.com/ , but I doubt that would be the game as it doesn't really havy any dialogue nor RPG elements that I recall.
I really hope you find it rusty, there is much I forgot and cannot find anymore and the feeling is horrible, truly hope there will be some sort of similar game someone suggests that gives a spark or leads you to it if not someone outright finding it :heart:
