Kai's Power Goo [LGR Retrospective]

This ridiculous program kept me so entranced for so long it's almost shameful. I'd completely forgotten about it. :)

I've enjoyed Sketchup as well, especially for making quick models for modding certain games. But yeah, Bryce is still special, much like Power Goo I'd say

LGR

I loved playing with Bryce 4 back in the day. Haven't seen a 3D modeling program that's just as much simple fun since. SketchUp comes close, but the architectural focus just doesn't do it for playing around.

NOOOOOORM!

Wow! My coworkers are incessant with that app that makes your eyes and mouth huge, but you were doing all this nonsense in the 90's! Guess you were doing it before it was cool, huh?

My aunt gifted me this in the 90's. Had a lot of fun times with it! This brings me back 8^)

Hahah what is this? xD

Schfifty Five!

holy shit, I think this program was used to make that Ugly Pigtails guy

Awesome! My copy came bundled with our BenQ flatbed scanner, I believe.

I've been reliving many MMX memories recently, hehe. Just restored a Gateway Solo 2200, which was their MMX flagship in 1997. I'm sure it'll show up soon!

LGR

Haha, it's truly bizarre to think about now isn't it

LGR

I do want to do a separate video on Bryce! And other 90s software, I've got a lot I want to talk about eventually :)

LGR

Quite welcome! Seems that gooey Mona Lisa brings back a lot of memories for folks

LGR

Unfortunately it doesn't let you animate the in-between of each fusion, but that'd be rad

LGR

This kind of stuff was popular in high school, but at home I continued to hone my pixel-art skills instead. :B

that Fusion feature would make for some delicious Animorphs memes. Come on, man, even you enjoyed transforming into a dog...

Wow man.... I totally forgot about this. Just seeing the thumbnail made all those good memories come back - thanks a bunch!

have you tried dos box

I always wanted Kai's Power Tools. I would see ads for it in PC/Computing Magazine, but of course, it was out of my price range as a 13 year old. I still love the ultra-skeuomorphic interfaces. Are you going to do a separate video on Bryce? I'm excited to see more 1990s software that's not quite a game and not quite boring productivity software.

Oh wow! I'd forgotten there was a time when these functions were a novelty?! :D

Nicholas Wilson

There was something like this as part of Thinkin Things 3, but it would never start up for me..

Melonking

Ahh.. that end picture though! It deserves a ROFL! :D Fond memories from the era of MMX and such! <3
