Hi,
I'm looking for two older games I used to play when I was younger on my windows 95 pc, it must have been in the middle or late 90s. Well I'm hoping I can replay them on the pandora.
About the first game I remember it being some sort of a puzzle game with a top-down view. I seem to remember a lot of pink or purple shades and a floor textured similar to a chess-board. Also remember some small yellow spheres, I don't know if you collected them or something. You controlled your game character through a number of rooms and tried to avoid death. There were some sorts of enemies or hazards but I don't remember much more than that. Oh yeah there were a picture of your character in the top-left corner.
^ I remember reading about a gp2x port a couple of years back but I remember the screen resolution not being optimal for it since the game ran at a higher resolution normally. And I'm pretty sure the game started with a 'D' and the title may have consisted of only about 4-5 letters. The name was short.
Name the game and let me know if there is a way of running this on the pandora. Knowing it did exist on the gp2x it could probably through ginge. But then it would still run at gp2x resolution. Any chance source was released? Maybe I could attempt a native port for the pandora..
Ok so game number two I don't have a lot of info on... I believe it was a dos-game but I'm not 100% certain. I know it was some sort of racing game and I think you were in outer space. The view looked sort of like audiorace or so, obviously not as good graphicsor fluid gameplay. There were holes in the ground and jumps and you tried to avoid falling down I think. Sorry, it was a really long time and that's about all I got on it, never had the full game only shareware version. I'm hoping I can find the name of the game and try it in dosbox or qemu.
