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.
Those games also need your vote!

Xenosaga Episode I: Der Wille zur Macht
Xenosaga Episode I: Der Wille zur MachtXenosaga: Episode I - Der Wille zur Macht, the first chapter of a trilogy, is a Japanese-style sci-fi role-playing game, sharing many common themes and gameplay elements with Xenogears. The battle system is not unlike the one used in Xenogears (combo attacks, AP and EP gauges, etc.), but random encounters are eliminated. Instead, the enemies are now visible and battles can be avoided. During combat the few upcoming ally and enemy turns are shown onscreen, allowing the player to make strategic decisions based on who will act next. A rolling slot moves with each turn as well, conferring a bonus such as added damage or bonus XP for any action on that turn. If the enemy would be in position to take an advantage then the player can expend a character's "boost" gauge to cut in and act next, although enemies can boost as well, and enemy boosts always over-ride player boosts. Each character has a unique tree of Ether spells they can learn by spending Ether points earned in battle, with lower spells requiring spells above them to be purchased first. After a spell is purchased, so long is it does not require a unique talent of that character, the spell can also be purchased and learned by any other character that can afford double its normal cost. The Anti-Gnosis Weapon Systems can be equipped with different weapons and accessories and can be used in combat provided that a character has enough AP on that turn to board their AGWS.
