so here is the topic: let's remember old klik games- talk about old games and maybe even upload one if you got shit lying around somewhere (any links like the one I've found are very welcome).
I will start: Freddy trims a tree- fucking epic! comes to my mind every year around this time.

I've still got some old KNP games on a 133MHZ computer. I should salvage them. Does anyone remember all those Southpark games? I had heaps of fun with them.
You played a penguin with sunglasses and a slingshot. It was an epic platformer made in TGF. Your buddy was a polar bear with a hot-air balloon.
I have a bunch of old klik games. I've never gotten around to uploading them all because I would need to go through them and check which ones were betas etc and remove them. Anyway,
It's just too old unfortunately. It could actually be because it was made with the 16bit version of The Games Factory because not all TGF games fail to work in newer versions of Windows.

this would be the reason. I tried to play Sonic the Hedgehog: The Fast Revelation last night but it was made in K&P so it didn't work. Fortunately it had no copy protection so I just opened the source in MMF2.
Oh yeah - before the resolution object doodad you had to use the 16 bit version for deliciously fast 320x200 games! It's a shame Windows compatibility settings don't seem to cut the mustard
Lol, Wanderer of Absu was what got me started with the idea that KNP games could do better. I used to make atrocious games back then, and WoA was the first thing I reverse engineered, thought me a lot of basic coding.
But I don't even want to look at it because it'll spoil my memories

Sorry that Watkins doesn't work. I didn't check before uploading it. Well, at least you have the game now if a way to play old klik games becomes available in the future. I have a few click games so if you remember any there's a chance I might have it. Also, Jess Bowers made a torrent of old games available a while ago. Maybe we could get that going again if people are interested.
I don't understand why Watkins doesn't work for you. It works perfectly for me on Windows 7. Well, when I say perfectly, its windowed in a resolution of 320x200 with a huge black border filling the rest of the screen... wish I could get the full-screen to work
Don't forget you need the suitable CNCS.dll files to get this working
