You know what? I may as well ask about this game.

Let's see what I can even remember about it. Goodness, I last saw it. . . what, when I was four? And on such ancient computers.

It was a bit of a mini-game. . . game. It wasn't an english version at any rate, being that everything was in Japanese. The player had a giant pot of various fish parts and two-or-so "Redheads," as I call them, in it. The player was riding. . . something, either a little tube or a seahorse of some sort with the pot chained to the back of whatever they were transporting themselves on. You had a long bar along the top of the screen as a sort of timer. By pressing SPACE, I think, you brought your hook back up to bring in various fish and whatnot. Grabbing good fish (such as the yellow fish that were prevalent) would increase your score and timer. Grabbing junk or bad fish (the purple with green polkadots fish come to mind, being palette swaps of the yellow) would decrease your timer. Sometimes a large amount of one fish or another would swarm across the screen. The player character (I suppose) looks like a red-haired robot, but I was little back then and you know how looks can be deceiving.

That is all I can remember. It probably doesn't even run on computers these days. But. . . oh well.

It was a tycoon, about making pizza and mafia-esque shenaningans.

It was made around 2000, dunno the details though... I only remember that first mission was in London Dx

Pizza Syndicate? Possibly its sequel?

It's a browser MMO, and it's set in space you play a House and try to increase your empire and move to more planets and make your house bigger and have better standing and reputation, I remember one of the areas of building you could go into was psionics

Sounds like something to do with the Dune series.

A browser MMO with airships as the combat units. Buildings were built real-time, but there was the obligatory ability to purchase air-ports to improve production and combat. The world map was all in grids, and you could build a base on one with certain resources. I remember it being pretty fun and having cooperative shenanigans with friends. Then I lost contact with them and forgot about it.
Any ideas?

My one is not of the dune series, but there was a rather large thread on it a while ago.... It's frustrating I can't remember it's name.... Uhm as playing one of the houses you could pick a specialisation in a certain area of commerce like mining, or exploration.

If it helps anyone find this, I think it had similar mechanics to Travian and Evony online and all that.
Actually reminding me kind of of Battle Dawn.

No sadly not, I think the main thing about the game is you play a house and you have members of your family in that house. So like house head, if you pissed of players they would try and start to kill family members

I used to play something like this named Imperion. Hope that helps.

Kind of similar, but that's in space. And the building in the one I'm thinking of wasn't so freeform. There was just 1 slot for each building and you could build/upgrade that building.
Also, the whole thing was kind of steampunky. Only the cities were particularly industrial, and the units were like ballooned airship types. But they still had names of ships like cruisers, frigates etc.

Anyone remember either of 2 C64 games featuring a bunch of sci-fi guys battling evil aliens? One of the protagonist was a spherical robot, another had the head of an eagle, one had the name Silver Eyes or Eye. There were 2 games, one adventure-ish in style and the other more tactical.
