>(I got it around 2001-2003)
so are you saying your post is probably isnt retro?

>>5744685
considering it's a myst clone, it's possible it could have been made before 2000.

>>5744695
fair enough

There are some early PC games I'm sure I'm never ever gonna find again and that's OK.

it is a psx game about a man-tiger guy with a long chinese ponytail, and it was full 3D kind of like soul reaver

I was haunted, for a long time, because it was an old shareware game I played in the 90s -- came with a "bumper software pack" we got with our TIME PC.

Some kind anon assisted and we found Operation: Inner Space (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation:_Inner_Space))

I wish you all as much luck as I had on your travels.

It was for Windows or DOS, it came in CD around 1996. All I can remember is some sort of alien hotel that you could explore with the mouse like in Freddi Fish, there was a space dock, a cinema, an observatory and you could explore the hotel floors and rooms.

There was a 1st person dungeon crawler I had on one of those multi game CDs. All I can remember is the chick on the chick on the title screen had big tits. You start in a sewer. Actually a lot of games off that disc were cool knock offs of other games.

I remember a first-person stone age survival game where you had to chip your own flints. It was made by a French indie game developer.

It could be Sapiens

Yeah, it was the Windows remake that I was remembering.

Was it spoopy-themed, or just a plain library?

>>5746265
just a plain library (sorry for the late reply).

>>5746752
There is an attempt at porting it

for me it was a few windows 95-98 era kids game. one of them had a mini game where you took care of a egg and it turned into a dragon or some shit

pic unrelated from around the same era

For me, it's a Commodore 64 game where you are a knight trapped inside his own mind or something like that, the game is made by a room after another full of puzzles and riddles, there are sometimes flying faces, copies of yourself or flying mirrors as enemies, I don't even remember if you can kill these enemies.
I remember the loud sounds and the transition between a room into another. It wasn't that good as a game, but the weirdness was almost artsy.

For me it's this random children's educational game I had. Things I remember about it:
>there was a blue guy in a lab coat
>it was a collection of several different minigames
>one of them was a shitty 9-piece jigsaw puzzle
>another was a thing where you input a series of commands and a robot would perform them, and you could do things like make the robot play basketball

This.

I remember one where you steer a lawn mower top down to reveal an image

I loved the little skits at the beginning and how you could beat the shit out of each other in stuffed animal form.

Go back

I remember specifically it was a romhack of Mega Man 3 (not sure japanese or american) on my old PSP that got lost somewhere in Canada, and the two things I distinctly remember are
1) The Gemini Man stage for the Doc Robot refights was just a bunch of those muncher platforms from Hard Man's stage over a bottomless pit, and that was the entirety of the first half of the stage; and
2) one of the Wily Castle stages dropped you into a corridor with an Airman Doc Robot inaccessible in the upper left corner, and you had to run with the wind he blew in order to make it across various gaps. There were a few funky sliding areas, but you definitely didn't have enough Rush Jet energy to do the whole stage, nor would you get across with Rush Coil.

To this day I cannot find anything even close. I know it's not Minus Infinity, nor Burst Chaser (or any of it's spinoffs), but I haven't been able to find it for years at this point.

Played this comfy adventure game that came on a cd-rom with like 100 games in '95 or so. Never got far because I was unfamiliar with text parser games but I loved the atmosphere and booted it up often just to play with the commands.

Later in life I spent a lot of time trying to hunt it down. Making posts on somethingawful and neogaf with pretty accurate descriptors but got no results. Then one day a twitch streamer I follow that plays a lot of obscure stuff was just playing it one day and it made my day. Turns out the game is genuinely obscure due to being turned down by Ken Williams, forcing the devs to self-publish using a a shareware model. One of the original devs actually hosts the game for free on his own website so it's easy to get a hold of now. Still a cool game.

there was a game i was playing in a pub i used to go until 15 years ago, discovered its name recently i think reading haywood's blog

this game had naked ladies, kinda gals panic, but with spaceships

aaaand i forgot its name again, fuck

I remember playing a demo of a third-person isometric game back in the late 90s-early 2000s(?). I remember it being Diablo-like and polygon. It was fantasy medieval based. At one point, you meet a store owner and he says, "Groovy, Dude..." and he's all decked out in hippie gear.

For the life of me, I can't remember what the name of that game is. I thought that it was Darkstone but I can't verify that it was.

Starship Titanic?

Midi-Maze? Probably not but Midi-Maze had smiley faces going through mazes.

>>5745857
Elvira - Mistress of the Dark?

Happened to me with two games in particular that for a long time I just had no clue what their names were but now I have long since found out about those games. This is a good topic it deserves more posts.
