So, a few of you may know this one if you were playing this on Linux. It is a minimalist-ish pixel art-based adventure video game.

Take a minute to read the rules in the first post, mate. One game at a time, and you get to post a game only if you guess the previous one correctly or someone gives their turn up. RadioPoultry is currently up. 😀

The more I learn, the more I realize how much I don't know.

Yup! Nevertheless, that game appears to be Passage. 😀 I remember that game from when I used to follow IndieGames.com and tigsource.com closely. I return us back to our regularly scheduled programming...

As I search online now, the game I selected appears to not be on MobyGames, but it is listed on the DOSBox compatibility directories, so someone must care about it a little.

Time for a small hint.

Apparently, this game was released on MSDOS, Amiga, Atari ST, Amstrad and the C64...

Found it - Project Neptune!

Went down a bit of a wrong-way track with that one, apparently there was also a completely different submarine game called Operation Neptune. Show some originality, guys.

Must.. resist... urge to answer based on image file name.

Cuz I don't think it's the right answer.

hint: the game does not legally involve ralph bakshi in any way (cool world wasn't the only bakshi work ripped off) and the game is a bad game and it uses strange modex video modes and it has the worst sound effects and amazingly it's not made in gamemaker nor is it by gary acord (yet still more playable than an acord"game"). did i mention the game is bad
