Ask Lemmy

No idea what the movie’s actual title was but there is a wonderfully poorly dubbed kung fu movie by the American title “Shaolin V Ninja”

The voices are terrible, sometimes the characters answer their own questions, music is stolen from Star Trek II at points and it features probably the best “I’ve been stabbed” sound in cinematic history at about 1 hour, 13 minutes. Highly recommend. https://youtu.be/h6iYROUoHUE?si=6h7DzxRMD6x4YSLl

Also it’s that specific dub, there seems to be a more shared version on youtube that is better translated (and not as stupid).

Anyone used to play this computer games hosted on Kabam? My favorite was edgeworld where you had to build a base and destroy others and such. Classic strategy game with alliances, and a world map where people took nodes and tried to execute like, chain dominion type stuff? Vaguely remember but god I loved that game.

Also Endless online? Different but an obscure rpg where ya had ya character and went exploring in dungeons and such, getting loot, completing quests. So many hours sunk into these games.

I played the heck out of TankPot back in the day. One of the best early games to have a high number of simultaneous multi-player, I think 64, split poverty 4 teams of tanks. Played through the browser, it moved around to different sites a few times over the years and now has its own dedicated site: https://tankpit.com/

A friend and I used to play Liero Xtreme lots when we were kids. I have never seen any mention of that game anywhere on any forum in my years on the internet

A-Train DS, or A列車で行こう DS, a Japanese game about managing trains. Basically like Transport Tycoon/OpenTTD, but focuses on Japanese train. It was actually really good, it actually made me obsessed with Japanese trains. Coolest thing about this game is, you can actually "ride" the train you built. It was like a dream come true for childhood me.

Yet, I rarely heard anyone online talks about this game. I really recommend others to play this game... If you can read Japanese as I am not sure that there is English translation for this game...

Denver the Last Dinosaur!

I've never met anyone who knows what this is, even if I sing what I remember from the theme song.

My husband is slightly older than me and he had no idea wtf I was describing. It was a late 80s/early 90s cartoon with a green long necked Dinosaur with sunglasses that performed in a band.

I had to YouTube the theme song to make him believe it was real.

Secret Dungeon

It was my second attempt at making a game(the first time i wrote "horizontal" instead of "Horizontal", making movement not work. I gave up for 2 years from making games because of that). It was made by me and a friend.

It was supposed to be a platformer in which you could kill enemies and bosses and have a lot of secrets. It was never published because we gave up

I'll throw mine in:

Video games: Weird Dreams and Spectre VR both for PC back in the early 90s iirc

Music: one artist i really enjoy that unfortunately died from covid in 2020 though he was only in his 20s... His name was Cesar Alexandre and i got to know and love much of his work as Lindsheaven Virtual Plaza. In fact, my first thought when i heard the opening track from their EP Daily Night Euphoria was that it would have been a great soundtrack for Spectre VR...

Captain Zoom in Outerspace

It was direct to TV Galaxy Quest before Galaxy Quest.

The Parking Lot Is Full webcomic.
