Help me find an early 2000's PC game?

[Bekuno]

Oh boy this is driving me nuts! I've spent almost half an hour trying to find this game, so I thought I'd turn to you guys for help.

When I was a kid there was this little 3D platformer game I had a demo for on my PC. You played as a blue dinosaur, possibly a triceratops (?) and you were on an adventure to save your sister. I believe I had gotten one demo from a CD with demos for various nickelodeon games (I mainly remember sponge bob ones) and another demo I had downloaded from a site.
The game also had a sequel where you could play as his sister, who I'm pretty sure was a pink dinosaur like him.

I've searched all kinds of thing and have come up completely empty handed. Maybe it's not a dinosaur, maybe he wasn't blue, the game possibly had nothing to do with nickelodeon.

It was a game you couldn't fully buy on CD either I believe, you had to purchase it online for a direct download and my parents never would so I didn't have the full version.

Here's a list of games I know that aren't it: (aka ones that keep popping up in my search)

Spoiler

Dinosaur Adventure 3D
Disney's Dinosaur
Dinosaur King
Dino Run
Turok
Dino Horde

Thanks for any info!

What approximate year would this have been? I love looking up old obscure games! There were a few games from my childhood that only I played and loved, it seems.

Nothing rings any bells for me at this moment, but if you can remember the year you played it that will go a long way to helping find it! Also, you might search for it on GOG.com. They may or may not have it (they specialize in obscure games, but a lot of my super obscure favorites are not on there).

You will have to make an account if you don't have one, but any time I ever had something like that I needed to find, even if I remembered only one or two small obscure things from it, whatwasthatone solved it for me. And quickly.

I wasn't a kid in 2000, but my sister was (she and I have a huge age gap).

Unfortunetely the only computer programs I remember were reader rabbit based (someone find my pacifier? Wheres my pacifier?) and a Crayola one that was an upgrade to paint but not photoshop..but still had neat effects.

I'm going to say around 2004. Two other 3D Nick games I played at the time were Spongebob Pinball Panic and The Spongebob Squarepants Movie game which came on the same disc. (IT wasn't the actual video game but an online one where you drive the pattymobile and collect crowns). Thought the more I think about it, it may not have been on a disc because the only free trial disk I could find had three games, and this one had several!

Thanks ponycake, I'll try there!

And MA, I think I had a crayola game like that haha! I barely even touched it though, we got a free CD with a bigggg box of crayons.

Wow, I'm pretty sure that I played this!  I had no recollection of it until you started describing it but I can see it in my head now!  No idea what it was called.  I remember playing it with my brother, so I can ask him later.  If it was the one that I'm thinking of I played it on the Nickelodeon arcade site.

Okay, trying to find stuff for you...

The first thing that came to my mind is not blue and is not a dinosaur, but I'll throw it out there anyway: the Croc series (see wikipedia). I don't there's anything about him needing to save his sister, though... but check it out anyway (and it's actually a really fun and underrated series).

Second, I googled blue Triceratops and found this weird video of someone playing a Scribblenauts game (not sure what year that game came out) which apparently has a blue triceratops? https://youtu.be/mcBNJJpRwc8?t=10m48s Not a 3D platformer and not about the dinosaur, but I thought I'd throw it out there anyway...

Lol, okay, now I searched "blue and pink dinosaur PC game" and got a bunch of links to game forum threads for finding games you can't remember the name of. I don't see any actual references to your game, though...

Here's one of those threads, if you want to give it a shot on there:

HelloGoodbye that sounds about right. I've been trying to find a nick arcade archive to try and find the game but I'm having no luck with it. It just keeps pulling up old gameshows. I hope your brother might remember!

Thanks for all those links ringwraith  Croc is a good series, it takes me back to my PS1 days. I'll try checking out those forums.

Ooh I vaguely remember this! I remember you having to jump on some sort of monster and not being good at it. Now I wanna know what it was too!

[Bekuno]

Aha!!! I finally found it. It was so hard to dig up since nick arcade was also a gameshow in the 90's that you couldn't find very much info on the site but I managed to find an article on the game. It was called The Adventures of Bleeposaurus!  Thanks for your help everyone.

LOL Glad you were able to figure it out!

Yay!  I never would have been able to remember the name without hearing it but that's totally it!

[ringwraith10]

Lol, what a name! That totally didn't come up when I was searching.
