An old game I don't remember the name of

I am trying to find an old (probably dos) game, that I always used to play in the past when I was young.

It is about 4 players: Blue, Red, Yellow and Green, and their mission is to bring an orb to a certain destination. I believe each player has a destination with the same color, although they CAN bring the orb to other destinations, but doing so will reward you with less points.

The game takes place in some sort of box, which the players can rotate by standing on certain buttons on the floor.

That is the multiplayer part. There is also a single-player mode where you get to control 1 player.

I've been trying to find this game for a very long time now.
I've also made a topic on dosgames' forum but there is no reply yet.

As a multiplayer DOS game, I'm guessing it's turned-based and playable only on one computer? That is, each player would have to take turns playing the game on the same machine?

I'm trying to think back to my first-grade computer lab games we used to play...

Thanks for the reply, both my brother and I are trying to find this game.

It's not turn based, and I am not exactly sure if it's a dos game, since the graphics were pretty good (I'm pretty sure it had 3D graphics).
But yeah, if you want to play with friends you have to do so on the same computer.

We had the game from a Demo CD-Rom including these games:

• Rayman
• Worms
• Cool Spot
• Zone Raiders
• Destruction Derby
• Indycar
• Earthworm Jim
• Jazz Jack Rabbit
• Death Rally
• Megaman
• Another one I don't know

Thanks for helping

Wow I remember worms! In fact I still play worms 2 every once in a while.

Apparently Riven is not up to snuff about IPX and DOS :P I used to play a cheesy lil game "Netwars" back in high school some 14 years ago. (good god I am getting old)

I loved it, but the computer science teacher didn't, haha! good old DOS 5.0
As for the game you described in the original post, it sounds familiar but no name comes to mind.

Oh man, when you know the name Please let me know!! I've been looking for this for so long, since I remember it was a very fun game. It was fairly fast-paced.

This guy on Youtube, named [URL=http://www.youtube.com/user/CuteFloor]CuteFloor[/URL] (Don't Ask) has a S**T ton of old school games that he records, hell I found Red Neck Rampage lol. This guy is great and I subscribed to him a while ago. Check out his page to see if you can find it.

Also he knows his history about game engines.

Thanks Zein,

He hasn't uploaded a video of that game, so I sent him a PM and he said he has heard of it, or seen it before, but he can't remember the name either.

aww so close

Quick question, what kind of color scheme(s) would you say the game had?

Also was it top down, or that other camera type I can't seem to remember the name of (where every thing is from a side and sky perspective)?

Now remember kids. Asking questions is a good way to get censored by the government.

What is a color scheme exactly? Sorry if that's a stupid question

I can't remember exactly. I think the camera was like this:

It also shows how the rotation works like.

Hehe there goes my bizzare terminology again .

Example: A red color scheme would be one that stays mostly with dark/medium/light red to make up the artwork.

So then the magic question is: does the game have a mostly purple color scheme?
If so, I may know what game you're talking about.

Edit: nevermind I looked more closely at your depiction of the player's veiw, and I think we're thinking of different games.
(I Think there may be a accidental joke in there)

Well I could be a little wrong about the view, so what game did you have in mind? Every suggestion is welcome!

I honestly cannot remember the color scheme, sorry.

Also did you mean I made an accidental joke?

No I meant I was making a accidental joke actually (highlighted by italicized text). Oh and also, the game I found is called Four Orbs, it was on an old cd I have called Arcade Master by eGames.

Don't you mean Blast Chamber?
Me and Bro used to play it, when they die it sounds like they shout "Shite Shower!"

Awesome!!! That is the game!!! I never thought I'd see it again. Thanks a bunch!

Heheh your most welcome, It was a highly amusing game! I bought it on eBay like a year back for 99p just cos it was funny to play! Always remember that and Twisted Metal! (for the less popular PS1 games)

Ah, glad you finally figured it out!

Twisted Metal was a great game I remember I played it quite a lot back in the day.
