This is one of the earliest PC games I think I ever played! While I don't remember a huge number of details, I do remember the feeling of whimsy and fun. Oh but I couldn't ever forget the sound design - like his little voice as he jumped and spun around! I really enjoyed playing through the colourful platforming levels to find and save Lomax's pals. I never thought about it until now, but I might attribute this game to my current love of platformers (ranging from Mario to Hollow Knight). This game was originally my brother's - I still have the physical CD-ROM. Unfortunately, even if I had a disc drive in my PC, this game wouldn't be compatible today. So having Lomax release on GOG would absolutely make my year!
It's the greatest platformer 2D of all time! I played it for 5 years straight - and would love to show it to my family! It's hard - but also balanced, compared to Rayman 1.
I still have the CD somewhere. It's one of my favourite games of all time. The music, the graphics, the level designs... It was just such a fun platformer. It was also fairly challenging, but it felt so great when you finally beat a series of levels and moved on to the next set of levels in a new map.
That was the very first game that I have played by myself. It was to hard for me and never ended it. I would be very happy to play again after years and finally passed it.

Jedna z pierwszych gier jakie grałem w życiu i to jeszcze na W98. Przesympatyczna gra i jak na tamte czasy rozbudowana. Można ją ściągnąć na stronach ze starymi grami jednakże zazwyczaj zawierają one wirusy. Może się spodobać graczom którzy jeszcze o niej nie słyszeli.

Resident Evil: HD Remaster
Resident Evil: HD RemasterThe hugely popular Resident Evil series, having sold over 61 million units to date, returns to its roots with a remastered version of the critically acclaimed masterpiece, Resident Evil. Originally released in 1996, Resident Evil was then “remade” in 2002 from the ground up with new visuals, gameplay elements, environments and story details while retaining the survival horror atmosphere the series had become synonymous for. Both fans of the franchise who want a trip down memory lane and those who have yet to experience the game that coined the term survival horror for the gaming world will appreciate this definitive re-visit of that iconic 2002 Resident Evil title. The intense horror fans first experienced with the release of the original Resident Evil is back. Taking place in the now notorious Raccoon City, players will choose to take on the role of either S.T.A.R.S. (Special Tactics and Rescue Service) team member Chris Redfield or Jill Valentine, who have been sent into the city to find the missing Bravo team. When the team is suddenly attacked by a ferocious group of mutated dogs, desperate for an escape they take shelter in the Mansion, but will they ever get out alive again? Players will need to be brave as they adventure through the dark, enclosed spaces searching out the horrors that await them. With limited ammo and survival items available gamers will need to keep their wits about them to survive the various traps and puzzles that greet them at every stage.

Silent Hill 2: Restless Dreams
Silent Hill 2: Restless DreamsSilent Hill 2: Restless Dreams is an updated version of of Silent Hill 2. It contains all of the content of the original version and adds several pieces of new content. The most significant is a new short scenario called Born from a Wish, where players take control of Maria from her first moments right up to where she first appears in the main game. Also included is a sixth ending to the main scenario and a minor feature that allows the player to turn off the graphical effect, which makes the game look like it was shot on cheap film stock.
