Stupid cheating scam this relabeling. I remember how City Interactive often irritated me with the same strategy.

I had a suspicion and it was right. Installed both games and..
Pacific Liberation Force (http://www.legendsworld.net/shooter/game/8540)
and
Helicopter Strike Force (http://www.legendsworld.net/shooter/game/8919)
are same games.
HSF is from Masque Publishing and has French also included. Also the loading screen logo is overpainted, and thats it regarding differences.

The original title is Pacific Liberation Force. Developed by Team6 and released October 27th, 2007 (source: http://web.team6-games.com/games/museum/).

Also, Strategy First belongs to its long list of its publishers.

Seems to be missing from LW (or maybe its excluded on purpose):
Disney's Kim Possible: Legend of the Monkeys Eye (PC) — released, May 16, 2006
I found out about its existence recently and don't know much about it. Not sure it got retail release.

Seems to be missing from AL - Hot Cats. Some German erotic adventure.
http://theodor.lauppert.ws/games/hot_cats.htm

AND - clicking on the Motelsoft Homepage link http://www.motelsoft.de/ opens a door to MANY obscure games, looks like some are even free.
Hot Cats seems even to be trilogy.
Website is oldschool. Program history gives some overview. Some listings are comics. Not sure anything is in English there.

Happy digging for those who like obscure and/or kinky stuff! :)

I've surfed a bit more on the site http://theodor.lauppert.ws/games/
and it has some interesting information like history and trivia about some games.

Anyway, another one missing from AL: Cyberdreams

About Pilot Brother series:

1. PIPE studio had nothing to do in developing games (K-D lab is correct):
http://www.legendsworld.net/adventure/game/8097
http://www.legendsworld.net/adventure/game/8098

K-D lab didn't develop Pilot Brothers 3: The Other Side of the Earth - PIPE did.
http://www.legendsworld.net/adventure/game/7850

2. No matter what adventure-archiv.com (which might have been the source) unofficially claims, Pilot Brothers 6: Secret Of The Atlantic Herring (http://www.legendsworld.net/adventure/game/8099) is not 6th game in the series - it's 7th.

3. Two games from the series are missing from AL. Those are:
- Братья Пилоты. Олимпиада / Brat'ya Piloty. Olimpiada 2004, PIPE studio, 1C. It's 4th in series and after that came two 3D versions.
http://smallgames.ws/7971-bratya-piloty-olimpiada.html

- Братья Пилоты. Догонялки 2007, developed by DiP Interactive, publisher obviously 1C
8th game in the series seems to have been evolved to some kind of sidescrolling puzzle game:

Timothy from Rebelmind seems to be missing from AL. It's Genre: kids/family game from 2000.
I don't know is it released in English, but would be interested to know. At least the website news says that "Jan 3, 2002 - Timothy signed for release in UK
A great news for all kids from United Kingdom. Timothy will be published on your market by the company called Akaei, under their Just 4 Kids label."

But it is released in some regions.
Game published by:
IM Group (Poland)
Cenega (Czech Republic, worldwide)
Akaei (United Kingdom)
Akella (Russia)

Also there is/have been demo by Cenega, ("Aug 30, 2001 - Timothy demo available"). The ling in webpage is dead, but it may exist somewhere.

More info:

WWII G.I. had Official Free Add-on Platoon Leader, made by same developer. It's listed in http://www.legendsworld.net/shooter/game/2401 as "Partial Conversion", which imho is a bit of a misnomer. I'd use
Official Free Add-on Platoon Leader
or
Platoon Leader Expansion Pack.
If my suggestion goes through, http://www.legendsworld.net/shooter/modaddon#255 should be edited as well.

BTW!, can anyone give me a hint how to run Platoon Leader with Eduke32? I read from old Duke4 forum post that it should work.

AL list Neighbours From Hell 1 and 2, which is nice, but not it's unofficial sequels.
Supposedly, Neighbours From Hell turned out to be popular in Russia and Game Factory Interactive (GFI) / Russobit M has made series out of it, and others kept copying.

In Russia Neighbours From Hell is Как достать соседа. Сладкая месть, AND Neighbours From Hell 2: On Vacation is Как достать соседа 2: Адские каникулы.

Как Достать Соседа В офисе - Pranksterz: Off your boss - 2006, dev VZlab
Как Достать Соседа На отдыхе - Pranksterz: No Rest for the Wicked - 2007, dev VZlab
Как Достать Соседа Из России с любовью - Pranksterz: From Russia with Love - 2008, dev GFI
Как достать соседку. Полный гламур / Nasty Neighbors: No Picnic for Celebrity - 2009, dev Orion Games
Как достать соседа. Каникулы олигарха - 2011, dev GFI(?)
4 out of those 5 have been released in English as well (GamersGate, Beamdog), therefore eng title is added.

To make things more interesting, the sub-genre got competition within Russia, from publisher Buka Entertainment:
Как достать студента. Переполох в общаге - 2007, dev Astar Games
Как достать: Принц Персии и Жадный Халиф - 2010, dev Orion Media Soft

AND:
Как достать квартиру - 2008, dev Jam Games, publ Novoi Disk

More info:
http://www.ag.ru/?act=search&s=%CA%E0%E ... FC&x=0&y=0
https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=P ... 72985BB312 - walkthroughs. The guy has taken some liberty in translation of titles and in order though.
http://dostatsoseda.ru/ - not up to date fan site of series
and obviously publishers websites (Buka, Russobit) and mentioned webshops give more details.

Long before Daedalic took over, Marco Hüllen's "The Whispered Wor[l]d" (originally his Graphic Designer diploma project in Rhein-Sieg-Akademie) was backed by bad brain entertainment. Not many know it, but back in 2005 it also got a small demo, featuring different character models, slightly different puzzles etc. Most of websites that hosted it at all, have dropped it. Imo this wonderful adventure is worth remembering in any form.
Should I upload this old demo (English and German text, no voice acting)? I see that there are other old alphas/betas/prototypes/demos of unreleased games (Project Joe, Immanis), then I can't see why not.

If it's different to those that are available from such sites as AG.ru or GamersHell (for example), then it's ok. BTW, does anyone have alpha/beta of Larry Reloaded, which was available to those who pledged more than $75 on Kickstarter? It's very different to the final version.


where will that demo link be when it's uploaded?
