Judging from one of the screenshots found on Google Images
◊, it's definitely one of Deer Avenger games. Thanks!
Also, only now I find out it was a deer and not a moose. I guess I didn't remember correctly, but still close enough.
There's this rather cartoon-y PC game that features a cartoon moose (I think), and I'm pretty sure it dates no later than 2005 or so (it may be from the 1990s or earlier, but it may have been in the 2000s instead).
If I remember correctly, you're a moose out to hunt for humans (complete with a rifle or whatever hunters use to hunt buck) in a winter-y forest. During gameplay, you have a view that scrolls around in a panoramic view; in other words, it scrolls like a sidescrolling game but you're actually turning around in a circle like in a 3D game. At the bottom of the screen there's an interface with various option thingies, but I only remember 3 of them:
- One option that takes you to a white map of some sort (you can change your location here, and I think there's an image spot that may show a picture of empty beer cans in the snow)
- A compass with a cartoon moose whose arm works like a compass needle, showing you which direction you're facing
- Some sort of icon/action with said moose shown from the back that changes to an icon of him farting when you hover your mouse pointer over it. I have no idea what use it had.
If anyone knows the name of this game, I'd be grateful. I tried to search myself but nothing of interest turned up.
