Back when I first purchased the original version of The Games Factory, I downloaded a number of "Klik" games. I divided these into LOCKED and OPEN (depending on whether I could take a look the source code). If anyone is interested in seeing these games, I still have them on my hard drive and could make a number of them available for download. I would ZIP all of them, but the size would come to a whopping 952 MB (and destroy my server's monthly bandwidth allowance). If someone can host them all and make them available, then I can do a SINGLE ZIP file and only make it available to them (until they download the beast).
Or, if no one cares (because these things are ancient) then we can forget all about this little episode.
I think these games are circa 1998-2001. Here is a list of the DIRECTORY names (not necessarilly game names). Also, the OPEN games are mostly just GAM files as I probably stripped the installations and threw away the EXEs.
It certainly does! I know that it would not be possible for TDC to host all submitted games, but I think some of the highly rated classics should probably get some sort of special consideration. I don't know if you guys have seen Macabre by Black Rogue Software (made in 2000) but it really is a classic Click game! I think there was only a sinle demo made but it has a ton of atmosphere to it. Morpho by Drunken Missle, a platformer, and Space Herdy, a mouse-controlled action/puzzle game, also really stand out in my mind. There are probably a number of others which deserve consideration but its been a VERY long time since I've rumaged through these files.
We do have the space for it, I could prob setup a page for it to and link from it with a button on the worth a click section. Maybe even a special Klik-Museum Page what hayo said, heck maybe we can even have people tell us what other classic games they want us to put on that new page if they are at least a certain number of years old -light bulbs flashing
If you can upload it, i'll download it once and upload it to our server here

You already get kudos for just volunteering to do all that work.
Hey guys, I got it, will upload these to our server and I will setup a new page for it called the Click-Museum, this way we can keep adding games to the list that people want to be kept online for years to come. Coding it now, turning out to be very cool indeed

Isn't it possible to upload the zip file somewhere and just let us download the games? I really don't want to wait for you to manually add those games onto the site, and then download them one at a time. Seems backwards to me if they're already in a zip file.
Jess, I think Dr James has pretty good hosting. You could use that for a day or two while we get a torrent going.

Yeah, it does! I've picked up those games from a number of sites - one of which was the Click Cafe. Others were downloaded directly from Click sites in community rings. It is by no means a complete list but it does have a few quality titles in it.

Rikus has just recieved the complete set of files and will be working to make it available.

Rock on!
Also, this list includes a number of very hard to find games. Some of these were made by Derek Yu (Eternal Daugther) and are no longer available on his website. Also, check out the stuff by Mark's Multimedia Fusion Bunker.
To tide you over, here are a few screenshots. Some images need to be clicked to be enlarged.
This is going to be so fun. By the way, pop it up on a torrent when you can. I'd rather have a gimongous zip to wade through at my leisure than wait for each one to download manually. (Which is still a good idea, we should have both. ) I can seed it indefinitely.

Yes, PLEASE upload this somewhere. In multiple zip files if you have to (likely)
Nice screenshots, by the way. I have a few backups of old klik games too, back in Scotland. I hope to get them uploaded someday. Off the top of my head, Syndicate 2097 is the only one I immediately recognise that's missing from the list above that I could upload. As far as I know, those VReal games (Destruction Carnival, Bloodbath demo, Golden Monkey Strike) are still available to download over at the Virtually Real website, but it's still nice to see them here.
God, I miss M. Pay's Aliens game. That brought back some sweet memories about my first kliking days, Mark helped out with some art for one of my games. Derek Yu and Jon Perry of Blackeye Software helped me set up my first klik site when I was a complete noob. Those guys were awesome.

Mark was very active in the Klik scene back then. Aliens, Tremor, and Lunatic Rover were some of his jewels. I remember everyone showing a lot of appreciation for Mark when he made Tremor Gold open source. Good stuff.

Derek and Jon (Blackeye Software) both have websites today -- neither of which include some of their first games from this list (Dive and Destroy, Speedfreak, etc.) They are cool games so I'm not sure why they were omitted. Their websites DO have Eternal Daughter, Diabolika, and the second Trigger Happy, though.
TH1 was lame though. I'm surprised my game isn't on the list, it was of similar quality Wasn't Speedfreak banned from (old) TDC or Click Cafe for nudity? Derek and Jon added me to Facebook, so I guess it's cool.

I'll upload a zip file tonight. The file, however, will be close to a gig... and I only get 200GB a month bandwidth, so after 150 or so of you guys get it i'm taking it down. I'll post a link when it's finished uploading.
I had some of Muz's old games at one time, but I can't find them. One of them was a wizard arena game where the entire enemy AI was just two sprites both set to player 1 movement.. so where ever you would move, so would they... it was hilarious.
you've got furballs?! i've been looking for that for years i thought i was the only person who remembered that! (assuming its the right game ofcourse and not a different game of the same name).
I've uploaded two so far. I'll put up the rest soon... I had to break up the games into multiple zips.
Nim! Vortex Runner was great.
I'm missing Mark Pay's Lunatic Rover & Tremor 2 and I'm assuming that SCAD Fighters is from Darksun Games' Anthony Lopes (Was that his name?).
I also have a crap ton of betas, source files, and god knows what else restored from an old hard drive a few months back. Nothing has been touched in years, it's like going back to 2003.
Will do sir, it is now 58% If you or anyone else have any other suggestions for games that need to go up in the museum please let me know and I will put those up first

Zipping the whole collection would force you to download every game in the pack even if you just wanted a few. Better to just zip each individually or leave them as they are (most klik games tend to be rather small anyway)
- Ok, you must admit that was the most creative cussing this site have ever seen -

haha its ok...it's such a bad game but it brings back a lot of memories of how much fun I had making it and laughing at my brother attempting to test it >_<
I haven't been through all the games but I'm still trying to hunt down an old klik game. It was about a skateboarding ball, with a really elaborate cutscene for 'story mode' where the player would walk into some skateboard company and be kicked out because he had no arms or legs. But the arcade mode was like a proper 2D skating game. It's probably terrible but it was the first real klik game that really impressed me.
Think it was French too.
The first klik game that thought me anything was some adventure game, Wanderer of Apsu or something. It's cool that KNP stuff was open sourced

Except when they don't import properly into whatever ClickSuite you have now.
But yes, it was awesome to open KNP games back then. It still holds a smidgen of a place in my heart.
Originally Posted by NastyMan It has my NastyMan games! But not my bubble girl ones!
I wanted to see bubble girl also!
Hey NastyMan! I checked and it looks like I actually have three Bubble Girl games (1, 2 and 3). They were in the Open \ Misc folder for some reason. Whoever has the torrent should check these out, too.
Jess could you please help me locate a copy? I'd much appreciate it, I know this sounds kinda whiny but I've been looking all over and haven't found it anywhere online. Is it in the archives, or do you know some way I could get a copy via email? It's a very important part of my childhood that I would like to reclaim. To recap what I'm looking for is "The Dark Angel" by "Working Cows". Thanks again in advance.

Hows things?
Hey! Things are great!! I haven't played a click game in ages, let alone made one (lost all my stuff back then from a hard drive crash, never reinstalled MMF). I do make stuff, though, with Stepmania (DDR simulator). Cool to see people from back when still around though
I've been looking for a copy of a Klik game from wayyy back to the AOL file archives called Blastem. Basically, it was a very simple back-and-forth shooter with some tiles used from the demo games that came with KNP. It was kinda lame and short, but it holds a fair nostalgic value. Something I made with my brother.
I remember filching a copy from I think either Izzy or Rikus years ago, who shortly after lost a mess of games in a hard-disk failure. Then there was the fact that floppies don't keep well :x
It might be an .exe only rather than .gam. If someone manages to find this, I will be indebted!
I'm sorry if this is a bump, and I don't know if it is since I don't come here often, but I just wanna say my thanks again for uploading all those games. There are so many I remember from back in the day, and once I get a little more time I'll play through the ones I knew again (or fail miserably, since I remember a lot of them being too hard for me, haha). I've already played through all the Nastyman ones, including Nastyman Gold. I'd never beaten NM Gold and at the end, I'm even thanked in the credits, and I had never seen that thank-you before! So a huge thank-you again to Jess and Brad, and a "you're welcome" to Yair
Also, Nim, you're quite the star in NM5 and 6 aren't you?

I got a lot more stuff to, maybe I should dig out the old 486...
I used to be known as "HiredGun" (my old account is still here, yet I cannot log into it... figures...) in the community. I can't believe you have a couple of my old games in there... from over ten years ago!
"The Hunted" and "Matrix Training" are two I spotted that could very well be mine. If you could upload them and send me the link, you will bring joy to this old man's face.

Did you also make a game called Crying Freeman? I remember it being pretty good

No problem. From one "old man" to another ... here you go.

Yeah, that was me too... last time I played it was maybe a couple of years ago, I got frustrated at my own game and had to quit it.
Anyone have my old game "Hover Wars II: Bonus Edition" laying around? It wasn't that great, but I'd sure like to play it again. I think I was named Necropixel or Simdrone052 when I released it.
I realize this is an old thread, but K-J N. you mentioned Monster and Monster Jr.: The Journey Home, my favorite classic klik games. Does anyone know where I can get a copy?
Hi all, I'm looking for some (rather bad) games I made as a child, Alien Rescue Hitmonchan, The Dynamo and Pool Shark 1 & 2. I know this is a very old topic, but it would mean a lot to me if anyone could upload/email me copies of these.
Heh, there's my hyperball game in there. I remember when that first came out in like 2001 it had a virus and affected a bunch of people's PCs...
I got a few classics, as in older than these, lying around, I got my own ones of course, from 1997-2001, and I have all of the Biebersoft games, the Mario spoofs, Bubba etc., I also have Binky's Adventure by 'Splat!', remember that? Oh and Sonic Robo Blast.
There are a few I can think of that I don't have and haven't been able to find though, I remember one called SGE, standing for 'Stupidest Game Ever', a very short basic RPG starring a yellow blob called Arf, and 'Jack's Quest', a Zelda-alike.
I love that some people have tried to start "Klik Archive" sites for us to share those old games, but at this point I just want them to be uploaded to an FTP or torrent, because unfortunately the sites never seem to materialise despite seemingly getting pretty close each time.
