Correct! (And there're some "connections" with the last game, right? :grin:)
Thought this won't get long already.

Amayirot Akago

Quote from: CaptainDMy suspicion is that an accident, probably caused by a lightning storm and a mad professor, resulted in Amayirot's brain becoming inextricably linked to the databases behind MobyGames and LemonAmiga.

Test Drive?

(Or probably not. I remember another game where you could design a car, checking wind flow and whatever, but I couldn't remember its name.)


Found it. It is literally called Car Builder.

Gurok

Yes, that's correct! I thought early 80s edutainment would be more obscure than that :D. Well done.

I remember playing this "game" a lot BiTD, having much fun in designing the car's body and fascinated by seeing the wind blown through it. That "map" screen was something that I recognised immediately, but I've only played the Apple ][ version.

Anyway, since I was having a round not long before, I'll pass this to whoever hijacks this thread first.

Haha, no worries. Yeah, I played it a lot too, but the DOS version above. I think I just enjoyed making the worst possible boxy car designs.

Amayirot Akago

I've definitely seen the box of this game in the past, and the shot is probably from Apple ][ even. I just don't know what game it is. Maybe I'll do some investigation (not image search, of course).

Edit:
Okay. After googling "Apple ][ cartoon bear" it immediately gave me the name of the series:
Spoiler
Stickybear

Which actually was a popular edutainment franchise consisting of a number of games. I'm too lazy to do further research to find out which specific title this would be, so anyone can work from here and find the answer for the win.

Stickybear Basketbounce?

milkanannan

Yes! Stickybear Basketbounce. World's worst game title. (laugh)

There's a thread idea. I'd start with "Hamlet or the Last Game without MMORPG Features, Shaders and Product Placement"
