i am looking for a game i played as a child (back in the early 90's+-).
i do not know its name but, here are the things i do remember:

it had a guy saying "space dude"
he was riding on a space skateboard of some sort
he was fighting a giant spider at some point in the game
i remember him resembling the potato guy from Toy Story
it had mini arcade puzzle games in the game itself, similar to Little Devil (for those of you who played it)

for the sage gamer who solves this riddle - my eternal gratitude. also, GOG will probably put it on shelves cause it was so awesome !!

cheers !

Space Dude?

This seems to be a popular "what was that game?" game.

triock beat me to it.
If it was not Space Dude, it was probably SpaceKids.

Well the youtube movie atleast looks like it could fit the description.

I think the OP must be feeling a bit of a nitwit right now :-D

This^ When are you getting Space Dude on GOG ? :((

Vote for Space Dude and Space Kids on the wishlist!

thx dude :) jackpot !
