Help remembering games you played thread

Can anyone give me a hand finding some game I played way back (probably 12+ years ago).

It was likely open source (certainly it was free) and involved making bases on asteroids + defending them against aliens or random environmental shit. I seem to remember you could also move between asteroids and build ships of your own.

Probably 3D but perhaps isometric/sprites.

I've given up hope of ever finding it again and suspect it won't live up to my vague memories but if anyone knows please tell.

pic obviously unrelated.

I'll bump your thread with my own request.

I remember this one adventure game, it was like an old point and click game but you went around solving puzzles and figuring shit out to progress, can't even remember if there were monsters or not. Anyways the game took place in some sort of hospital or mental asylum or some shit.
One of the puzzles I remember was having to use a thermal camera's recording to see the order of the numbers pressed by a nurse on a numpad to open a door and the protagonist was a wise ass that kept cracking crappy jokes. The only one that stuck to me was when you find a table where a game of Russian roulette had happened and he comments that he once played it by himself and lost. I barely remember the game so I can't be much more specific, I think it had some sort of psychological horror stuff going on where there were monsters but the hospital/asylum was working properly and you didn't know if it was just you tripping or monsters were really killing people. This last part might not even be accurate, since I can't remember much.

Forgot to say, the game wasn't point and click, but felt like one because of the puzzle solving nature, saging for double post.

I'll also add that it was 3D.

COLOBOT maybe ?

Really old RTS. It was 2D but used prerendered CG. You had villagers, the males had big afro looking hair, you could put a man and woman in a house to make children, who then grew up. Women were used to gather crops and I think could be trained to be witches while men did mining and could be trained to be soldiers. There were two different factions, one red and one blue, both were humans. i think the blue side had more steel armor kind of look to them. The game had a European feel to it.

Unfortunately that's all I remember.

I have a game I don't remember much about but i'll list the few things I do remember in case someone might know what it is.

It's on Ps2.
The game was in 3d but kinda an overhead look to it
It's a jrpg with more actiony game play
The main character wore this tacky gold armor. I believe he wore this armor on the cover.
It was a dungeon crawler that was supposed to be hard

That's all I can really remember from the game. I never got far into when I first played it but I've always wanted to track it down and play it again.

populus?

This one's old, so my memories of it are quite nebulous:

3/4 view rts-ish/point & click PC game in which you lead a team of explorers/scientists/climbers and make them survive through hiking and climbing himalaya-like mountains.

The only other thing i remember is them suffering hypothermia all the fucking time.
Back then i was probably too young to understand the game's mechanics, so my climbers died at a stupidly fast rate.

Any idea?

sounds like Tower of Druaga.
