Hi all, I have looked as much as I can to find a certain pc game but now I need your help because I cant find the darn thing, I was a kid on our 486 or Pentium 1 or 2 when I last played it. It started with choosing 3 or 4 players with both male and female for the game and it had a space theme as in wearing space suits and with space tech to open doors (using key cards found) and disarm laser beams and monsters to kill while it had a looking down from above look to it - you could see the floor and some walls and the players would walk around in a scrolling style gameplay. We had it on CD if this helps and Im not sure but we might have played it on windows 95 or 3.1

The very start of the game after choosing the 3 or 4 people was in a single corridor that was a sort of tutorial to show how to move and to pick up a key card to open a door and a laser to disarm and after that there were robotic (monsters ?) and the rest of the game. I hope this is enough to name this game, we were playing wolfenstein 3D with it back then.
