Caenum posted:Trying to find a (kinda?) old game - I think it was touted something like from the dev who did XCOM or XCOM2 - but its not the phoenix point game. It had 3 races, and really really terrible DRM like you could only get it from his specific website and he'd send you a code or something I don't know.

I'm pretty sure I played it on 5.25s in the early 90s. The whole trading aspect definitely was a foundation when I eventually got into Escape Velocity

Syndicate Wars? The PS2 did have multitap for up to four players, but 007: Nightfire doesn't match for the camera. stringless fucked around with this message at 11:31 on May 30, 2023 |

My first instinct is MDK, possibly mixed up a bit with Oni?

fuckin Earthworm Jim 3D (1999)? not even mac i don't think I was actively gaming on Macs at that time and MDK (1997) and Oni (2001 so maybe not but still clear plastic era) are the only games from that time that could possibly match in my memory, maybe your friend just briefly saw a scene that was an outlier. Abuse (1995) is probably way more fun than the phantom memory game was anyway. stringless fucked around with this message at 09:35 on Jun 1, 2023 |

It could be Space Hulk: Vengeance of the Blood Angels (1995), but that doesn't have the face thing.

I've had good results asking it to list 10 or 12 possible examples. If you just ask for one it'll usually get the focus wrong.

It's definitely not this, but I found this while looking around and somehow never heard about it before now: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mdAj3DQAUYM Especially after just recently playing all the way through Dave the Diver it seems up my alley. The sequel's kickstarter trailer starts in a pool hall (or, at least, there is a pool table), even: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5CVJ6fjrZI0 stringless fucked around with this message at 11:14 on Jul 30, 2023 |

Yeah, sometimes chatGPT can be helpful if you tell it to give ten potential answers, but for that description it was like "nope lol here's a confidently wrong answer and a list of ten popular platformers"

This seems familiar, as a Mac gamer in that time range. Did the circles emanate from the player, and you had to be careful that nothing hit them while they expanded? Or perhaps drawing any shape to block off the field but again as an enclosure game you'd get hurt or whatever if there were any collisions while drawing? stringless fucked around with this message at 06:30 on Oct 8, 2023 |

Nidhogg is an easy to get into competitive Playstation game. Last night I played what struck me as being the XBox version of Nidhogg, except it was a race through levels instead of tug-of-war and it had a grappling hook on X that only works on the ceilings with white lines. Similar graphical quality (i.e. none, but with style). The longer a run goes the smaller the viewable area gets and runs end when all opponents have been killed by not staying on the screen and it's best of three I guess? What did I play?
