I could never find this game again
It's an old platformer where you just solve very simple puzzles and pick up items, you play an adult man.
the artstyle is pixel art but very high rest compared to most pixelshit, but the art is kinda bad
The final boss is a mage of sorts I think, but the deal is that the game says it was made to imprison this mage and it is trying to escape the game (breaking the 4th wall).

Does anyone know this game?

Is Grow stuff zoomer nostalgia? I remember a friend showing it to me on one of my high school library's computers, and I was born in 1987.

i dont think even zoomers have nostalgia for brawl

Its telling that 90% of the games on the right are indie games made to mimic 8-bit games.

'97 here I think that counts as a zoom, I love SSE and remember Brawl fondly because we got it from the closing sale of the town movie store
I also loved making stupid custom stages

Millennial/zoomer split is completely arbitrary and only used to denote certain types of content.

Forgot to mention, it's a flash game

The circa 2010 internet was a shared experience for both

Plus, those are all arbitrary distinctions in the end.

brawl came out in 08. Zoomers were at least kids you major retard

Grow Cube was made way before 2010, probably around 2004.

>>725991631
shit doesn't just disappear after it gets published
browsing random flash games was still a thing by 2010

>>725991710
That's true, but that's like saying that because a zoomer can play the entire NES catalog that NES games are zoomer games.

so millennials aren't allowed to have nostalgia for the NES either?
>>
>>725992287
Zoomers played flash games in the late 2000s and 2010s so they are zoomer nostalgia, even if they are late. Not many zoomers owned an NES and played them.

I've lurking these threads for a while and the funniest thing that I have noticed is that literally nobody ever posts shit from the 8th gen, the newest games I have seen posted by anons here were from like 2012. that's how shit that era was, not even the zoomer anons here want to claim it.

>>725993634
Literally the second post in this thread is FNaF which is from 2014.

That's probably bait from a millennial, I'm sure as hell not nostalgic for 2014.

Arcades are now replaced with Mobile games attached to giant screens by the way.

mobile games really are the modern verisons of arcade games

the games, maybe some of them, but not the arcades themselves, which is something the younger generations will never know. they will never know how rad arcades were in the late '80s and early '90s.

DS was such a great console, 7th gen was shit but the handhelds were something innovative. Wish we had more games like that instead of grey and brown slop.

What Levels did you make on LBP? I was personally a huge fan of the "movie" levels and Mortal Kombat levels.

Another '97 Zoomer here.
I have nostalgia for Brawl even though it's total dogshit because it was my first exposure to the series. The Wii was my first non-handheld Nintendo console. I had the PS1 and PS2 first, and I'd only end up with a Dreamcast, N64 and (Multiple) GameCubes via yard sales after the PS3 and Xbox 360 were out.

The Wii being $250, and obviously different to the other consoles, was a big factor in convincing my parents to buy it.

As cheap as the GameCube was, they wouldn't get me one, because "All the games are repeats of the ones you already have."

I miss playing this with my uncle, he helped me get into Newgrounds and indie animation at a young age. But now he is in his 30s and is raising a daughter. I wonder if he ever posted here.

That's like, the point. Games for Gen X and Gen Z have a shitton in common. It's the Gen Y games that chose to squander everything in a misguided attempt to "elevate" and "mature" the medium. This is also why the actual retro AFPS shooters have a lot of zoomers in their communities these days, unlike millennials, who created the entire archetype of the "fake ass douchebag that lies about playing AFPS games for kudos" and at most only ever touch fake slop like modern """boomer shooters"""

God I loved Raimi Spiderman so much as a kid. I remember finding some old fake leaks of Spiderman 4 on Youtube or Break Media and I thought it was real.
