Based on the comments, I think we've finally had a game creator find Lowtax's LP.

The quality of his header banner alone confirms it.

Looks like the games music is from his EP Unicorn Cartwheel

And he also has 3 other games by him linked on his site

Boy, I think it's about time I tell you the difference between a man and a woman. A woman isn't a woman unless she's pretty. And a man isn't a man unless he's ugly.
I could listen to Lowtax and Shmorky talk all day. They sound a lot like Sifl & Olly.

Here are some games that look promising based on their screenshots and have been played less than 10 times:

Happy vs. His Evil Twin 2 Return of the Robots Version one

A Cat encounter as a mouse

Lunas Legendary Adventure

4UN viaje a PLANETA marte parte2 <-- This game looks amazing

Green and Purple 5

Pictures from clyton park barbacue

Topo Extreme - Europe Countries

Criminal Mastermind

Adventures in A

According to the author's profile page, that's just one of several zip files from a three game series, since the second and third entries were each uploaded as six and eleven multi-part zip files to get around the site's upload limit. Successfully extracting these results in the second and third games' executables being 111MB and 187MB, respectively.

A Voyage to Mars Part 1 is this one.
A Voyage to PLANET Mars Part 2's 001 file.
A Voyage to Mars Part 3's 001 file.

The third game's description has a 'helpful' minimum system requirements list:

domingo, translated posted:

THE REQUIREMENTS USE A CPU AMD 64X2 DUAL CORE PROCESSOR 4000+2.11GHz 3GB RAM AND A GRAPHICS CARD OF 512MB OF VIDEO

E: Laymen's terms, you need to use something like 7Zip or WinRAR after you've downloaded all 6/11 files and have them in the same folder to actually get a working file out of them.

Bad game? To each their own I guess. I personally really enjoyed LSD. It had some rare kinda creepy moments and proper exploration.
It aged badly, though.

Apparently Dan is a sex symbol in France.

Did anyone ever figure out what's going on with the thumbnails? I've never used a custom thumbnail, but this made me decide to check:



My account is fairly new, but I'm guessing that's irrelevant, since Lowtax's is from 2006. Is it just that anyone who hadn't used custom thumbnails before can't use them at all now?

I have watched all the new videos, by the way. I just can't think of anything that hasn't been said before (90 degree angles, stolen models, etc)

To be fair, cr1tikal's channel is a goldmine of games of the same "quality" that Lowtax is coming out with. Granted I've never seen the majority of the games Lowtax has been playing.

I think you need to monetize to get access to custom thumbnails. If you've been seeing more of them in the suggested links section, it's because Youtube has adjusted its search algorithms to favor the ones that make them the most money.

Oh, put that thing away, Samurai. We all know what's going to happen. You'll swing your sword, I'll fly away, and probably say something like, "I'll be back, Samurai!" And then I'll flutter over the horizon and we probably won't see each for... about a week. And then we'll do the same thing again.

IIRC, that means you have to extract the seven and eleven part files into one cohesive file. I think you also have to fuse the files together also? I've had to do it with files that are like 5 or 10 gb's. Not a 100 MB

All I remember from a review was in the first move, Mexico gave the US a 1 billion dollar stimulus package and Belgium kept using its nuke's on random African countries. Should be a great review.

I can't hate the guy if that's true, but I doubt it is.
Of course, there's that chance it is true, and then I'm the rear end in a top hat.
