Dare to Dream, one of Cliff Bleszinski's first games?

Dare to Dream was Cliffy B? Wow. I was perpetually stuck in the (rose?) maze of I think the third or forth one in the series as a wee lad.

Yes, there was also a text adventure, The Palace of Deceit, that he made before Jazz Jackrabbit and Unreal.

I never actually played Unreal. I got my introduction through Unreal Tournament which I played, mapped, and modded for 2-3 years obsessively.

New pic coming soon!

Unreal is a great game, in my opinion. The AI is smart, level design is pretty good and weapons are a lot of fun. In fact, they reused many of the guns in Unreal Tournament.

Hint: The character in the picture was voiced by someone we all wouldn't be here without...

Chris Jones?

Chris Jones?

Yes, but the game's name still needs to be guessed.

(It was made by someone who is still with us and producing commercial games now with AGS)

Is it the last Ben Jordan?
I remember it having some cutscenes where the characters looked a bit different from the rest of the game.

That is correct!

I just finished playing through the series again to see how it holds up now I know a bit more about game design.

It was still very good and a lot of fun. I'm thinking of writing a piece on my thoughts on each episode, unless Grundislav pays me a lot not to...

I would read that! I haven't played those games in quite a while.

I don't have a screenshot at the moment. If anyone wants to take my turn, go ahead! Otherwise, I'll post something later.

Cosmo's Cosmic Adventure. Loved that game!

milkanannan · Sat 25/05/2019 14:14:05

I'm sure this one has been done before, but...

Magic Carpet.

Bullfrog at their peak.

milkanannan · Sun 26/05/2019 03:08:50

Yep and yep.

Jack · Tue 28/05/2019 02:06:28

Too easy.

Dune?
