Judging from the portion of the galaxy map visible within the rectangle, both Imbari and Omega Prime should be visible on-screen. (I don't know this game, so maybe Imbari is the orange planet in the centre, and it's not labelled because the map is centred on it. But Omega Prime is definitely not there.)

Nope you can only see one solar system at a time in the system window. It's a very simple edit

Hmm... Have you removed the Warp-something (they had some name, didn't they?) to Omega Prime? Since you have portal to Zamera but Omega Prime is even closer so that could be the case...
I am not sure, I only played Space Empires IV and V

You're unbelievabley close! But not quite right. (On a different note, did you ever get a multiplayer game working over internet connection on SE5 because i'm trying to have one with my friend currently and we can't seem to connect to each other).

Hmm, I think this is cheating, but a quick images google search revealed the original picture and I can see that the galaxy view is missing the Zamera-Imbari connection line.
As for SE5, we didn't like it as much as SE4 with my brother and we haven't played it even once on multiplayer, not even via LAN. But I remember there were a lot of odd problems with SE4 LAN play so it is quite possible they didn't actually got around to fix all of them in the latest version .

Haha well it's my fault for not taking my own shot. You probably would have got it eventually anyway.

There are some good mods for SE5 out that improve it alot in the way of faster gameplay but the only place i have found for multiplayer games is a site where they use manual file transfer.

Your turn!

I would +1 your post but i only have 1 mod point. I'll try and get one somewhere.

Anyway, here is a screenshot, from one of the better NES games - TMNT:

Yup, I guess this one was too easy. (Although I think it is too short to be Katana - Wakizashi maybe?)

Wild guess: You swapped Mario and Luigi?

According to the game rules, you have to tell us where it's from. (Yes, I can see it's a Mario game. But there are so many, just knowing that isn't much help.)

Meh...otherwise it's just easy to go and play the game and see. It's more common sense that mario is the main character and should be first. Anyway i will say what game of the series it is if there is more than one of the specified game next time.

And well done slimm tom. Medal awarded.

I was using common sense, yeah. I'll try and come up with something in the next 24 hours or so.

I think you've missed the point of this topic. They're meant to be puzzling even if you've played the game, not things you'd know the answer to immediately if you just "played the game and saw". (Sure, not every example posted so far has lived up to this ideal, but it is very tricky to think of good ones.)

He's defending a rule you didn't follow and then criticized.

Only I can make a forum game without rules, guidelines or purpose, and even I use games that don't already have rules, guidelines or purpose.

Speaking of that, it's time to bring up one of the better received ones.

Schik found that binging for "can a screenshot be altered" links to this thread and it made me want to continue this game since it's pretty fun.

The screenshot:


This is a screenshot from my game which I'll be releasing on steam in the following weeks, see if you can see what's wrong with the picture!

Well, I've never played this game, so I had to look it up on Steam (using your attachment's name). I compared this screenshot with some of the screenshots posted there.

It appears to me that the lowest HUD square on the right side of the screen shows the before and after of an attack on the creature that the cursor is pointing at.

The cursor is pointing at a Manticore with 1 health and 1 armor. The before/after HUD element suggests that the Manticore currently has full health/armor.

Good choice for a revival!
