I'm supposed to wait a day or so before I give out hints.  Tongue

Probably the author's mum? It bombed, even though it got quite positive reviews. But I must admit, I bought almost every voxel game: Outcast, Command And Conquer 2, Bladerunner, Magic Carpet, etc. Outcast was the best one. I wish we had gotten voxel accelerators instead of stupid old polygon rubbish. Phooey!

Yes - OUTCAST was awesome. I loved that game, even though the combat was a bit wonky. Massive shame they canned Outcast 2.

Booooooo, no one attempted mine Sad

The racing game looks like A.P.B., but it can't be.  Too many colors.  Argh!

That's because you have to guess one correctly before you can post one.  Roll Eyes

I have no idea what this is but someone better get it up on GOG.com because it looks awesome.

Maybe we do, but we're not going to tell you because you posted out of turn.

Oh my god, Vangers!! I haven't played that game for so long. I bought many years ago. I found it far too freaky and hard though.

The rambo game is in that grid based one, and also the top down racer is pole position?

I'm not entirely sure about pole position though.

I did.  Dangerous Dave 2.  Although someone beat me to it and failed to post a game image, so I went ahead and did so.

Oui! A great game until the bosses became made-up dinosaurs.
However massive penalties for us both for posting out of turn.

For those of you who hate reading anything other than the last three posts, here is the current one you have to guess.



You still have about 12 hours before I start dropping hints. But I think the image itself gives enough clues for the amateur detectives amongst you.

I decided to determine out what system it's on. I failed.
This is my story.

Detective work:
1) It's using 12-bit colour depth (R4G4B4)
2) The image has been cropped, making it difficult to pick the resolution. Assuming it's been doubled we know the device must support at least 350x232.
3) Halving and re-doubling the image doesn't appear to change it.
4) 22 simulatenous colours are in use.
5) It's a top-down racer.

Clue #1 made me think it could be an Amiga title. According to wikipedia it could also be Apple-IIgs. Regardless, it's gotta be a 16 bit machine. Clue #2 has me completely flummoxed. Nothing seems to have a horizontal resolution larger than 320 and smaller than 600. Surely we're not just looking at a quarter of the screen. Surely.

Even if it was a 640 wide amiga screenshot, it wouldn't display 22 colours on OCS hardware. I suppose it could be an arcade machine, but who would make something that looks this arse?

In summary, I don't know.
