A search of "eroge four seasons" gives me a series called Da Capo which is set on a magical island where the cherry blossoms are always in bloom.

This is pretty vague, but I'm looking for a PC game from about 8-10 years ago. It was a freeware shooter which had a 3D view of a ship descending into a pit viewed from above. It was pretty short iirc - maybe only 3 or 4 levels, and the only objective was score.

But hey, as a bonus, Castle of the Winds is now totally freeware and it's much better than any hentai game in existence. Seriously, so glad dads_work_files reminded me of it's existence. I'll probably play it after work tonight just to relive the terrible memories of being eaten over and over again by fricken cubes of moldy jello.

Hey here's one. It's something my computer class had on all the computers back in the late '90s (Think '99-'00, but I think it might have been a game from a few years earlier). Some manner of flight game, not a sim. Space-age stuff but set on a planet and in the atmosphere. Basic 3d graphics. It was a demo with LAN, one map, and possibly no singleplayer. I recall that there was lava here and there and a lot of green and brown mountains, a few underground bases/ruins, and you could fly up over the clouds and dogfight anywhere between the sky and the ground. Fun stuff and I know there was a singleplayer since once I found the demo on the internet at home but I've long since forgotten the name of the game. In that demo I remember it was dark and you were mostly shooting, like, electrical towers or something. The Descent games heavily remind me of it in looks and how it plays but I don't think it was a Descent game, the UI and stuff feel wrong.

Could be Interplay's Hardwar. It was a space shooter set on a planet in a dense city where you could fly inside things sometimes. The game is really brown with mountains and clouds everywhere. There was a multiplayer mode as well.

There is this one game that my sister used to play on our old acer computer growing up. It was a demo of a 3D first (maybe 3rd or both) person flight game. You were a spaceship flying across some planet, and there were ruins and poo poo you could fly inside of. There were badguys, and no multiplayer that I could think of, all I remember about it was flying into tunnels in pyramids, and my sister always flying upside down and getting shot by stuff. I wish I could remember more, I don't even remember what the enemies were. Everything was brown and deserty though. There were rivers and clouds you could fly into? Anyway, I always played the jack jackrabbit and tyrian demos on the acer, if that helps with age wise. But yeah I've been hunting that game for my sister for the longest time but can't find poo poo. Edit: It sounds like Shima's game, but I dont remember lava or shootimg towers I think. There was also absolutely a singleplayer. No idea about multiplayer. Then again it was a demo.

I remember playing this game, I think it was for the Mega Drive, but it could easily be SNES or some other 90s console. In it your character was pretty small, not taking up much of the screen at all, and it was a platformer, I think the early level was either in a futuristic city or a rocky wasteland. The main things I remember was your guy was either a robot or in power armour and you went around shooting enemies, and it controlled really oddly. Rather than being able to turn around, two different buttons fired in opposite directions, one to the right and one to the left. You also didn't have a jump button, your chracter had a big wing-spike style jetpack that you could use to fly around a bit. The main other feature I remember was that you could land on top of some kind of one-wheeled bike type vehicle and press down on the d-pad to merge with it and you could play as a robo-wheel, and in that form you could jump. I don't even recall playing it that much or it being particularly great but its bugging the hell out of me.

The only way I was ever aware of Ranger X was that somebody recently (I think the Two Best Friends?) did a video including it, fawning over how amazing it was for the time. It certainly looked unique, I had to give it that.

I bought it when a store was closing a few years ago, was shocked to find a Genesis game I hadn't heard of, then shocked again that it was one of the best shmups on the platform. It's also $10-ish bucks, shocks all around. Skunkrocker posted:I've been following this thread for some time trying to help out and I have yet to see a game get repeated, to be honest.

If you type "What's the name of the pc game with the jeep" into Google literally the first response is Return Fire.

JPrime posted:Another longshot. Sometime in the 1986-1990 timeframe, I remember playing an arcade game that had an anime/akira-looking style to it, I think. It was sort of sci-fi/futuristic, I think? And I think the gameplay style was very similar to dragon's lair/space ace. I'm sure that's Road Blaster / Road Avenger.

I have two games I am trying to remember or find First one is an old fighter jet game or demo that I played around 14-15 years ago. Might have been one of those PC mag discs with a bunch of games or demos. I distinctly remember it had an eject button and you'd end the level if you ejected and watch the little pixelated man in a cockpit seat parachute to the ground. I dont remember too much storyline or air combat so I'm leaning more towards a demo here. Second is a offroader game that was around a similar time, may have been another PC mag disc but it was a large open world and I clearly remember you would get to the "edge" and they would just be horrendously large cliffs. I'm not 100% sure but if you could clip/climb your way to the top of the cliffs you'd get catapulted back into the map. I distinctly remember there were motorbikes and possible buggies of some description. This was all in third person perspective.
