I'd be totally happy making more 256 character fonts. I have a few more I can expand, mostly from old computer bioses and bitmap fonts.

Thanks Snarky! I tried out your suggestion and it works perfectly! It looks incredibly pretty and using a multiply layer really helps to maintain the luminosity of the colours! That's way better than what I had before!

On a different note, though, is there anyone who can speak Hawai'ian, Samoan or another of the Polynesian language family on these forums? I need some help translating some names, I can't seem to find the right words myself.

I'm doing some palette magic, and I want to have a day/night cycle. What's the best way to simulate sunset/night by changing RGB values? I know that, at night, blue light is affected the least and red light is affected the most, and I want the player to be able to see what they're doing (so I can't just blanket darken everything until it's pitch black).

What would be the best way to simulate the reddish hues of sunset, the blue caste of night, and a pinkish hue in the morning? I can interpolate between them, but I don't know what kinda formula I should be using on the colour channels.

[The Samaritan Paradox]

Claimed The Samaritan Paradox, thankyou! I'll be sure to play the heck out of that one.

No no this looks a lot like Legend of Valor. I so wanted this game to be good too, but it just wasn't...

This is correct!

You could throw herbs at random dudes and it was pretty amazing to watch when all you've seen before is Frogger and Digger, ahaha. But Legend of Valor did not live up to the hype. :<

I was looking for this game for years and years after watching my cousin play it, but it turned out to not be as good as I originally thought it would be.

Battle Clash for the SNES?

Intellivision Font in Windows-1252
Hotel Mario Font in Windows-1252
Tom Thumb Font in Windows-1252

Some more 256 character fonts for use in your games.

Here's an easy one.

That's Apollo Justice, part of the Phoenix Wright series!

Not sure what happened there. Tread was gone and reappeared again?
AN IMAGE

Ah, Cher's only video game role, and something with a musical number by (bafflingly enough) Jim Belushi.

That's 9: The Last Resort! I played that just the other month!

How about this?

Leon: commercial, from around 1994/1995. I played the demo. It came on The Disc! which was from the magazine CD Rom Today.

Archive.org has a, well, archive of CD ROM Today coverdiscs, starting with Issue 1. If you narrow down your search, you may be able to find that demo!

Correct!

Nope, and nope! You're getting closer!



You should now have all the fabled clues to piece together this terrible game.

Can you believe they charged $18 for this?

It was a shareware release. A very obscure one! But one I found on a disk one day and has haunted me ever since.



Perhaps this piece of narcissism will jog someone's memory?

Nobody considered some hardly working Click'nPlay witchcraft?

It isn't Klik 'N Play, I think it's some bespoke engine.

Some bespoke, awfully programmed engine.

First adventure game for Win 3.11?

You're correct there, though it's probably not true. This game didn't come out until the very late in Win3.1's life cycle!

Let's delve into the deep past:



Proudly proclaiming to be the FIRST of it's kind!

That's Discworld, specifically the broom closet before you turn on the light.

1. (4 letter word)
You can count on them, though
Some would rather curse them.
You can speak dear to them,
Though we all know 'tis just in vain.

Self.

You can count on yourself. Some people curse themselves, and speaking dearly of oneself is vain. And in vain, too, since you already know what you're going to say.

It is indeed a Windows 3.x game. It's very crudely drawn and independant, and it's art really resonates with me.

And here's another clue - my favorite track from the game: Midi!
