It was an exploration game on the Apple 2, where you moved an icon around a maze of screens. On one screen, you could customize your icon away from the default (which I recall as being a swan), but you could customize it down to 0 pixels, which would softlock the game.

there was this first person 3D game with pacman(?) like gameplay from the late 90s or so. the maze was pretty dark and there was this monster that made this unsettling breathing or such noise, so when you heard it get closer you knew you were in trouble. used to scare me shitless as a kid.

this thread made me remember it again. to this day I have no idea what it could've been.

For the longest time I had vivid memories of some obscure game from the '90's that I played growing up. All I could remember were fragments of the intro and weird little sound effects, but these fragments were SO strong I could picture and hear them clear as anything else in my mind. The only thing was, I had no idea what the game was called, and couldn't remember enough salient details to search for it.
Then, one day my YouTube feed spat out some obscure long-play of something that looked extremely similar to what I had remembered for all these years. After like a frantic fifteen minute Googling, and I finally found the answer that eluded me for what was probably close to two decades:
It was fucking Microsoft Creative Writer 1994.

Honey Monster Mountain Rescue, a platforming game split into three discs that came packaged with cereal boxes in Sweden (and probably other Nordic countries).

There is one game I distinctly remember that I have never found anything on in the 20+ years since I played it.

All I remember is playing some kind of detective investigating in a futuristic office or factory or something and there was a female android receptionist that you could have a short sex scene with. I only post this here because knowledge of this game's existence and that one single scene have haunted my autistic brain for years. I don't even want to play it or fap to it, I just want to know what it was called and that I didn't just hallucinate it or something.

If you're looking for a pretty good Super Mario World-esque 2D platformer on the PS1, you could do a whole lot worse than Hermie Hopperhead. It's got a great soundtrack and some very cute fully-animated cutscenes, as well, though it gets devilishly difficult in the later worlds. Recommended.
