        ffta was hard for me to get into mostly due to how alien it felt for me, someone who spent a decade with its sequel, and has over 2k(?) hrs in it. also not to mention the fact u can lock urself out of epic items without knowing (the fact u decide where named locations are and all, lol).

    Since most games are often mentioned on the internet, I’m going to reach waaaaaaaay back to my childhood and mention Cartooners:

    This was a game for kids to make their own cartoons. I spend so much time making all kinds of funny and weird stories. It was very basic, but it had me giggling every time.

    So I just invented a game.
    I kinda like it a bit.
    Of course, I’m not going to tell you its name or its rules, or I will have mentioned it on the internet, which will make it a paradox.

    Le fabuleux voyage de l’oncle Ernest (the translation would be Uncle Ernest’s Fabulous Journey, but I don’t think it’s been released outside of France)

    I don’t remember much of the game but I loved it as a kid, around 9-10.

    The game is about the traveling journal of our adventurer uncle: Ernest. From what I remember it’s like a virtual treasure hunt, trying to find clues to find our uncle. It’s a lot of minigames going through Africa, Istanbul, Borneo …

      Based recommendation, microman was one of the earliest platformers I played. I still remember insert to shoot being an awkward keybind.

      “What’s up Wanda” “Let’s sprint”

      The delivery of those two lines are burned into my memory.

      Inevitably every movie I’d make in that program would just be 2 characters karate kicking each other and then exploding

    Battlezone 2: Combat Commander. When I started playing that, my brother and I had to face each other and use our laptops’ infrared ports.

      Have you seen Underspace? Its almost a spiritual successor to Freelancer. Take Freelancer and add Eldritch horrors and you have Underspace. IIt’s still in Early Access but definitely scratches the itch.

    Challenge accepted. Does anyone recognize Llamatron: 2112? I played it on Amiga, but I think it was also on Atari and DOS.

    It was an acid trip “llamas are funny” parody of Robotron: 2084, and it was a fuckin’ BLAST!

    World in Conflict is one I don’t see talked about. Squad based military RTS.

    Multiplayer on that was so fun. Guessing how the enemy was moving in order to time how you call ordinance on them was my favorite part

      World in conflict is so much fun. That form of control dating back from the ground control series feel so good.
