I don't know if there was a Daily Click when I first found these guys, but the first klik game I played was a couple of monkey island fan games by an australian guy called Matt Shaw, I think. I think they were called Cuthroat Island?

@Andy: Could it be Gobbin Cram? you played a green alien and you can move it's arm with it's gone in like 180° directions or something if I remember correctly?
Just did a quick search for Gobbin Cram. Nah thats not it. It was much more colorful and might even have been a demo/abandonware thing. Quike frankly it was a generic platform game.

i think i remember those. really would love to play them all now.
personally i am very bothered about all the great games that are forever lost. i love that about newgrounds. people uploaded their games 10 years ago and they are still on that page. i wish there was a script on TDC that every time someone submits a game it will automatically be uploaded to rapidshare, mediafire, megaupload etc etc so they will be online forever
Yeah, that bothers me too MasterM. I really want to find that virtual pet game and play it again.
And to add insult to injury, most of the time you can't even get the original authors to upload it again, because they consider their older games to be shameful and don't want to release them again out of embarrassment. I think that was one of the main problems with the Legend of Flan series, with was otherwise a really solid collection of MMORPG's. It shall be missed. D:
I'm just glad I managed to find the Warbot / Elektroid series and upload it to my MediaFire account. It remains one of my absolute favorites.
Hey, here's a bunch of these old games: I especially remember Naimistath & Miraculous quest (I did a fan game on it once, and I still have the crappy source somewhere! ).
I didn't know that site was still up! I've missed looking at the Naimistath screenshots in the Projects section. It's a huge shame the game never got completed, I love Owen Lyndsays graphical style.
If any of the old-skool klikkers are around and somehow have a copy of this handed to them in beta can they let me know?
yes ive loved Miraculous. man how i loved it! i loved it so much i wanted to make something like it as well so i ended up doing a TEXT ADVENTURE IN MMF LIKE OLD SIERRA GAMES like kings quest, leisure suit larry or space quest. i tell you mmf isnt made for that. strings dont really work and i entered so many different possibilites of stuff people could enter - dang.
anyways years ago like 8 years ago or even way more in the past ive emailed the creator of Miraculous quest and asked him some stuff about his game. it took him one year to reply - he checked his email after one year. now here is the funny thing: i had already given up that email account and bothered to check in after ONE YEAR after i had recieved his email. so it was a conversation where it took both of us 1 year to reply.
anyways do you still have your clone, alonso? id like to see it.
also cant we introduce an upload script like ive suggested?
Lol, it's been so long ago. Back then, there was like another TDC, maintained by ChrisD and not Clubsoft.
First klik game I downloaded was some K&P platform game I found on download.com. Heh, back then, there weren't really any klik sites (or at least a lot of people didn't know them) so many klikers just uploaded crappy games onto Download.com. But games back then were so bad so even the k&p games could stand out with the rest. And they were so bad that nobody cared that the graphics were all from the library.

You mean Naimistath X? You might be able to get the original game from the VReal site still. I think I had two versions of Naim X
