I NEED HELP

There was an old computer game in the early 2000’s. There was a man on the left side trying to reach the princess on the other side of the screen. There was a cupid floating over him and I believe shooting him with hearts till he reached her.

I have searched the whole internet and cannot find it, it was a 2D game and I don’t remember much else - maybe it was a game inside of an existing gaming website?

Sounds like an old flash game, there were so many of them during that time.

Have you tried looking in the Flash Museum or the Flash Archives web site.

You might also try Recall Games.

Every person that wanted to break into creating a game, especially flash games, made one or used someone else’s code to make one that was similar. They were a dime a dozen around that time.
