I genuinely thought I was alone haha.
I wish I had the talent to remake this game. It was so good.
There was a game on PSX called Team Buddies. It was the absolute best. I have many core childhood memories toes to that game.
Split screen PvP (or PvE, but the computer players were dumb) where you have to run around these different maps collecting boxes to bring back to your base. Depending on how you stack the boxes, you make different things when you smash them open
1x1: pistol 1x2: shotgun 2x1: additional āsoldierā 1x4: rocket launcher 2x4: tank
You could have up to 4 soldiers and the aim was to destroy the enemy base by attacking it.
There were these super blocks that would drop and if you got them included in your build it would change what you made. You could get an Uzi, a super solider with flight and lazer vision, a gattling gun or a helicopter.
You could attack other players building pads to sabotage their new builds, attack their base, kill their soldiers⦠It was amazing, but outsideu friend group, have never seen/heard anything about it.
I kind of for the description so I certainly canāt argue with you.
I think a big part of the reason youāre so spot on is because of the timing. Painting with broad strokes here, but the group you mentioned is kind of the group you need for something like Lemmy to be built in the first place. And I fully appreciate Lemmy had been around for awhile now, but letās be honest, itās only recently become āpopularā thanks to u/spez.
I hope the username will expand as more people find out about Lemmy. I think with that will come feature changes (more likle9in the form of third party apps) as a more diverse group of people start using Lemmy.
