Can't remember the name of that game from your past?

[SolemnlyDoc]

Help me find this one please.

Its a PC game around 2005-2010 I believe, its the same era as Bejeweled and Heavy Weapon Deluxe where Popcap games are everywhere. Speaking of Bejeweled, the game has the same genre, match 3 game. The setting of the game is outer space I believe with different spaceship and character accompanying them. Also I believe the game have like different space level with different characters on it too.

I've been trying to look for this one for ages but with no success

Is it any of these?
AstroPop (2004)
Puzzle Quest: Galactrix
Starlaxis: Rise of the Light Hunters

It was free or paid game?

I was 7-8 years old, I don't remember( Maybe it was on a CD

 

[oxyhime]

I'm gonna need some help on this one (pretty please):

PS2 game, wouldn't know which year. Fought with my cousins for the right to play with them (as you do, as the younger cousin).

It was sort of a MTX vs ATV thing, quads & bikes in the same game, but I'm not sure it had the official licensing. I think I remember a cast of cartoonish-ish characters to choose from, like you'd find in SSX; maybe a rocker chick in the lot?

It was on the "arcade" side of things, you could do backflips and kick your opponents off their bikes. From what I can recall, there were offroad races and stadium races.

All I can say is that it's not Freekstyle.

 

[Adrastia]

It was PC.

No, graphics looks to good, it didn't have samurai/western entourage. Setting looked more close to near future/modern day.

I was thinking Nightmare Creatures. But that's set in the 19th century. It did have a black skybox and low poly graphics though. But a lot of games looked like that. Nightmare Creatures did have a Windows release. The sequel did not. I thought it did all this time too. But Wikipedia says no. That game takes place in 1934 so the buildings would be closer to modern. But no PC release.

After looking into it, seems like it was ATV: Quad Power Racing 2 that I was thinking of, probably mixed up with a similar MTX game that I'd seen back then.

Many thanks. Every so often I'd try to look it up and tire myself out instantly playing the wrong game.

Do you guys know that iconic titanic quote: "Now it only exists in my memory", this is me right now.

The story is: around 10 years ago I would search across the internet for some random games, often spaceship ones from the 2010 era.
To name a few that I have played: Galaxy Strike, Monster Galatic, Deadly Stars, Incinerate, Lethal Judgment...
then one day I came across a pretty different spaceship game, which happens to be the one I'm looking for.

I can't remember the name of the game but only specific details:
it was a 3D game focused on exploration, you controlled a black spaceship and you could explore a planet flying around on your ship, though there was only a jungle as far as I could see.
On the ship, you could fly up to the space but there was a limit, you could fly in the direction to the sun until your ship explodes once you passed a certain distance (that was the limit). When exploring, you could also unboard the ship and explore on foot.

That pretty much sums it, keep in mind that I was a kid back then, that's why the details are a bit sparse. I may be able to say for sure if it was that game if I see a gameplay video of it or if I manage to get my hands on it. Thanks in advance.

And to all brazillians on duty, I downloaded that game on the old popular brazillian website called "baixaki" if you are brazillian you probably know about it.
Those were the good days, the site has decayed a lot since then.

 

[OldGamer95]

I don't know but maybe "Freelancer" is what you are looking for? Good luck, mate

 

[RageBurner]

Hm... you remember a lot of specific details. Was it really 3D or top down?

 

[OldGamer95]

Should have read a little more. Didn't see that you were basically stuck on a planet with a jungle. It shouldn't be Freelancer in that case...

 

[Yuniheim]

It was 3D. I'm sure.

I had a look at that game, it wasn't it but it's quite similar.

 

[RageBurner]

So let me see if I understood correctly. You can never leave the jungle planet's orbit?

 

[Yuniheim]

Yes. All the exploration was only on that planet.
it's funny, when I put it like that the title "spaceship" looks a bit misleading
you have a spaceship but you can't go to space

 

[RageBurner]

Yes.

Do you remember if it was something fan made, a demo, or something else?

 

[Yuniheim]

Unfortunately no.

 

[RageBurner]

Unfortunately no.

Do you remember how the character was dressed?

 

[Yuniheim]

Do you remember how the character was dressed?

Now there is something you reminded me of, when you got out of the ship, the ground exploration was first-person, so you couldn't see the clothes (that is, if memory serves me right).

But on ship, the exploration on the sky was always third-person, you could see the whole ship.

 

[RageBurner]

So on the ground it was first person, but while flying the ship you could only see the back of it, the thrusters, wings and such?

Pretty much, but I remember being able to see the whole ship. Perhaps I could move the camera with my mouse or something.
...you know, I was searching for black aircrafts and I came across one that I feel like if it's not the one of the game, it's very similar to it, the Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird.
if that happens to be the case, then maybe it was not a 'spaceship' game after all

I hate Titanic. It doesn't have anything to do with the topic at hand, I know. It just any reference to Titanic triggers me.

The Blackbird has a pretty unique silhouette. Not a lot of games where I can recall it being flyable. Ace Combat 3 was one, but that's beside the point I guess.

@Yuniheim Did you already found your game? If not, can I suggest MobyGames as a place to look for it? It's search engine can filter games by system, year, gameplay, multiple genres, it has a lot of options.

I haven't found it yet but I'll have a look at this site, thanks.
