Iceissteve: The game "camera" follow your character from behind but remember that it's been a long time so it's hard to remember but I had to be behind the character because I was able to see the house shake and numbers on top to know how many characters were in it to defeat it. If you have a name even if not sure I would take it and try it and thank you for all of your efforts.
Titanium: Just to be sure you're not misremembering some things, take a look at
Sacrifice,
Armed and dangerous and
Giants: CK and tell us if they are similar to what you're looking for.
That was fun, first I think the one I'm searching for is more cartoony, second the shaking of the house and the numbers over it are key.
After trying all of those I feel like I have part of what I'm searching for but spread into 3 games.
Thanks a lot for this great moment of play. I feel like each message I receive makes me closer to the one I really want.
You guys are collectively awesome.
