1. A DOS puzzle game (possibly a port from Amiga or whatever) where you control a pic related stick figure dude and have to grab and throw blocks that travel diagonally and bounce off walls in order to hit the corresponding static blocks on the level.
2. Some kind of top-down exploration/space combat game for DOS where you start with pic related small ship, travel around, land on planets, but more weapons/ships, etc. Played it for only a day before my PC got bricked and dad lost the CD, so a lot of details may be off.

Anyone knows the name of that game where you were a blue blob or something and you could absorb stuff?

There was this really bizarre DOS point and click adventure game with British voice acting and terrible MS Paint art. All I remember is talking to a big green snake, possibly near a bridge.

Remembering more about this game now... your guy was a yellow dude with a pointed hat and no arms, and you had to drag him around. At one point you used a diamond with a skull? It was a shareware game around 1998.

Dude I fuckin' loved Boppin' as a kid

I loved how surreal it was. In retrospect though, it looks like they just downloaded a bunch of random Windows 3.1 icon packs and decided to make a game out of them.

Thanks, I'll give it a try later.
I'm pretty convinced game #2 was some kind of bootleg game made by amateur developers from one of European countries. I've asked hundreds of murrican oldschool gamers about it and none had an idea what that game could've been. I got it in a gaming store bundled together with Tyrian v1.0, some ice hockey game and something else I haven't had a chance of trying.

Eternal Champions?

It was a platform sharware game where you were a guy in stripes (i think) navigating grey blocky world and shooting stuff. It had a mechanic where you could toggle camera so you could play it like top down game or FPS game depending on which would be the most convenient for given situation.

Also there was old shareware multiplayer space shooter where you could fly inside an asteroid and dig tunnels much like minecraft.
>>
PS1 game where you controlled a spaceship in third person and it was inside a giant electronic tunnel where you had to avoid obstacles.

A really good 3D centipede clone that had ice zones, lava zones, forest zones but it isnt the actual centipede sequel since it looked completely different and came on one of those obscure PC multi-game discs.

An old edutainment adventure game they had on old PCs in the UK, where you would travel around a map and explore mayan ruins.

A very muted grey/brown rpg of some sort for ps1 (or early ps2)
One of the first weapons you can get is a butcher knife, and the beginning of the game is very mountainous

Was there a game like G-Police (or anything with a black helicopter) on the PS2? It was third-person

It was. Than you!

It was a math game with a knight where you could get fish as a reward. We had a computer with ms dos. It would be fun to see what it looked like.

UHHH, I'm getting mad over this. I started with emulation almost 10 years ago, yet I never couldn't find it. I guessed I would find it eventually. It didn't work. Yesterday, under large nostalgia feeling, I put up all-nighter to finally find it. I am quite proud of my googlejutsu... but it didn't work ;-;

Well, let's get to main topic then. It was C64 game, standard 2D platformer walking from left to right. I'm pretty sure background was always black, colours were darker in general. Main character... I think it had round helmet? When I was a kid, I thought it's resembling Marvin the Martian? I bet this is red herring though. Another thing I remember, one stage with yellowish pillars. It was kinda hard to land them, you had only these thin pillars to make jumps. I think there was some basic shooty attack.

Thanks in advance, /vr/.

You're a space marine on mars and have to travel to hell to conquer your doomed fate.

I think it was like a 1995 ish game
>>
Talking about C64, there was a C64 game I played as a kid that I can't remember. It was a helicopter game similar to Raid on Bungeling Bay, but it wasn't Raid on Bungeling Bay.

Bro, isn't that Doom? Doom III is your best bet. Eventually, Quake.

It was an MMORPG from like 2000. It was 3D and I remember I made an elf character and started in a city in the trees or something.

Asking this killed the last thread. Let's see if I can't pull off a double whammy

It was a space shmup for DOS. The MC and other characters were all furries, cat furries I think. I remember the story being that this nasty alien race called "humans" came out of nowhere and started invading shit.

Posted this in the last thread: You fly spaceships/hovercrafts on planets in space, like Jupiter and Saturn's moons like Europa or some shit. It's either first or third person, but there's a versus mode. I think the skyboxes were generally dark starry space on the maps, but yeah. It was on the N64, I'm pretty sure. I can't seem to find the game even when googling "N64 space games."

Not a sidescroller as my badly drawn pic depicts. Not top down either. Just either first or third person spaceship stuff.

A Jurassic Park game for Windows 98 or so. It kinda played like an SRPG but it had larger maps that focused more on exploring/solving puzzles than combat. You had a team of maybe 4 or 5 explorers, not sure if they had specific skills that each was good at.
One guy would constantly say "Hey that's custom" when you gave him a command.

Lost World: Chaos Island? Where you sorta build shit and explore around with a couple of characters and/or dinos? I vaguely remember having played it, just searching for it sent me on a nostalgia trip whether it's what you're looking for or not.
>click on bald guy who dies in movie
>says "didn't I die? In the movie, in the movie I died" if you click on him enough times
I'm not sure if that's a product of my memory or imagination at age 10 but I can hear the line in my head.

How do you not know the name of doom, that shit is absurdly iconic

Sorry, no. The game was strictly from left to right, played out pretty much like mario.

There was a game I had on ps1, it was third person and the character was blocky even for ps1 standards. Possibly made out of blocks. The level I remember was more of a maze (like screensaver tier) with the occasional platforming. Very grey, but iirc the character was yellow. Occasionally you would beat up equally blocky and yellow characters. No textures on them really, just solid colors. Same as you. The maze level (might of been the whole game) also had water in it that you could fall into, I think.

My memory is hazy at best but I went through the ps1 game list and still could not find this game. Wasn't very good, but it bothers me I can't remember the name.

My first lost memory is an 3/4 isometric shooter where you played as some kind of alien. You could do all sorts of rolls, and shoot lots of robots. The graphics were pre-rendered sprites.

This one is a long shot, but I'm looking for a game that came on a DOS (or Windows?) mega game pack with a name something like "5000 DOS Games". The game itself was sort of like drug wars except you were part of a mafia, with gameplay sequences where you entered a building/warehouse from a top-down view and could navigate around boxes, maybe push them around, and could push enemies.

You need to stack falling geometric pieces and build up a tower, and there are angels and demons flying around it.
