So Amber is telling me about an obscure SNES game that she played as a kid. The only problem is she can't recall very many details...

She said it reminded her of Kirby.
The thing you controlled was green.
She's pretty sure the guy slid.
It was a single player game.
She thinks the game took place in a kitchen.

....Yea, not a lot of details here.... but any help would be awesome.

Do you mean him?

Why wouldn't he just make this thread himself? :?:

She said no, the guy looked more like Kirby, or like a slime.



Who is Amber?

My fiance.

Not sure. Tried looking around but that seems pretty obscure and vague. You should probably waterboard her until she remembers.

Dunno if this wiki article will help.

Obscure. That isn't obscure.

Maybe it is. Not a kirby lookalike though.

I fully expect its actually Super Mario World or something equally "obscure".

Bought that game from Venture for $15. It was awful :|

In fairness I haven't played it in about 15 years so maybe it was.

I remember the 2nd or 3rd level of Zool with the musical instruments was all messed up. The sound would get all crackled and fade in and out. I dunno, for $15 I shouldn't complain but bad game is bad.

Deadly Towers on NES. Go back and play it, then /wrist yourself for doing it.

So I've got this one that has a chance of being it.

Whirlo/Xandra's Big Adventure/Xandra No Daibouken

I don't think it was released in the US but who knows? Shit happens.
Either way, it does have the side-scrolling Kirby style, without the sucking and taking powers
The guy is green
You can make him slide
Single-player.
However, the only thing I remember about a kitchen is in the opening.

Both of you should check it out, even if it's not the game. It may help rehash some of the memory.
