    Oh yeah: There used to be a pc srpg series posted on the old forum. It was.. 5 or 6 games long, started with a F in the title I believe. It was a fan translation as well, I think. No, not fire emblem but a similar game style. I've been meaning to redownload it since my old hdd tanked but since the servers poofed and all... haven't found it again/can't recall what it was called.

    Hey guys, I've come here with a query about a long-lost game I used to play as a young kid on an old Windows 98 probably, between 1999 and 2004 roughly.

    The premise of the game was that you bred and controlled these little minion creature things, quite small they were. They started off as babies and gradually grew. The game is played underground, with where the baby creatures are born. You get levels going downwards. For example on one level was a nursery where your baby creatures are born. A level down will be the school, level after the bar perhaps. Anyway these levels descend down until you reach the bottom, which is a hellish core level full of evil creatures which kill your creatures if they get there.

    The game is played with the player look head-on into the levels. A visual demonstration would be like this:
    -------------ground
    a level
    ---------------
    another level
    --------------
    another level
    --------------
    and so on.

    The player needed to feed and give water to their creatures and shit, help them survive.

    If anyone knows what I'm on about, please do tell.

    Unresolved.

    Last repost before I give up on these threads.

    This is one we've been looking for for ages. MS DOS game. You played a rabbit and I think may be a puzzle game, otherwise more likely a platformer. You eat cabbages to gain points and either when you eat the cabbage or when you finish the level it sings "hallelujah." Someone else has informed me there was a green slime involved. That's all I remember for now.

    It's not Jazz Jackrabbit or Quick the Thunder Rabbit.

    Pteryx, do you happen to know the platform?


    mrwilly, perhaps the game is Creatures? This is a screenshot of the first game:

    I didn't even know a thread like this existed, so now I have hope!
    Ok, here goes:
    Platform: SNES OR Sega Genesis
    Genre: Action/Adventure

    Unfortunately, I don't remember any of the mechanics (scoring, health, attacking) or even what the character looks like, BUT I remember the environment.
    1. It was very colorful.
    2. There were four levels, I believe you could choose which order you did them in. They were shown in the four corners of the screen, and each was a color: a green, ivy filled jungle level, a red volcano-like level, a blue underwater level, and I forget the fourth.
    3. In the "red" level, there was a portion where a giant black ball (shiny, like a marble) was chasing you, and you had to outrun it through a series of tunnels.
    4. This one MAY NOT BE THE SAME GAME. I might be mixing another one up here, but: in the underwater level, the boss was a pirate of sorts on a pirate ship, and he would like, spray out water at you, and you'd fall off the ship. BUT, you didn't die, you swam around under the ship, avoiding urchins, etc., until you got back onto the ship to continue the fight with him.

    That's about it for what I remember. It's NOT Joe & Mac, though it's similar, and it's not any of the Sonic series, though they're close though too..

    After hours of searching. I finally hunted down what I was looking for this morning, in a fit of boredom. It's Farland Story/Saga/Odyssey and all that jazz. Awesome series, if you haven't played it.

    Alright, so I'm looking for a SNES game. It's basically a motorbike racer played from top-down perspective, but it didn't have the most serious graphics ever. I remember it being a bit more wacky and colourful. I think it might've been a Japanese game, though I'm not entirely sure. Oh, and the most important thing: it had an extremely catchy intro song.

    Edit: Found it. It was Battle Cross.

    [SOLVED]

    i have two games in mind i believe there for the SNES.

    one is a pacman game involving an adventure dealing with helping his family with simple deeds.

    getting milk for the baby, getting a guitar for his son, getting a flower, then defeating gummaster.

    the other one i can only recall the cover having some jungle boy on it.

    and i never beat it cause it was hard.
    Layin down enjoying the fun unleashing the power of the sun and capturing them all until I'm done.

    The Pacman game sounds like Pac-Man 2: The New Adventures. (Wiki)
    The jungle game sounds like it could possibly be one of the Adventure Island games (I think there were at least two for the SNES. Wiki). Or it could possibly be Joe & Mac.
