Fire Flies


If you got hooked on Pest Control, here's some more bugs to get rid of. In a slightly different manner. Tricky and randomish, but I have to say, I like the feel of it. Moody soundtrack and somewhat meditative, a bit "Orisinal" - if you know what I mean.

OrbBlaster


A nice spare-time game that might remind you of Asteroids but this one is a little bit clever.

If you single click your mouse button you will fire bullets that only make the target bounce off their course. If you double click, you will drop a bomb that destroy the targets. The thing is to try to move the targets into, well target groups and blast them to get some sweeeet combos.

The game was developed by Le Ha Nguyen.

Nitrome x 4

Oh man. Sure is slow around here sometimes, isn't it...? Lucky for us, Nitrome aren't! They are putting games out faster than my one year old is processing his last meal - and that's pretty darn fast. Another difference is that it's not all crap. Hopefully they can keep the standards they've set even with the high output. Two new games since I last posted (last week) and by golly, it seems we missed two releases previous to those. Sorry 'bout that...

Thin Ice
Skate loops around the monsters to open up holes.
Loads of bonuses and stuff to collect.








Twang
Bounce away. Annoyingly difficult to control...









Pest Control
Swat like crazy - will make your index finger cry for mercy...









Off The Rails
Two boogers with sombreros on a handcart. Pump your heart out.

Potato Parade


Sorry, this is not a web game, more of a brilliant executed and cute web toy if you wish. Cheer someone up and create a potato parade. The site was produced by Glue and the animations is in fact made by the same guys who created Wallance and Gromit. Enjoy.

Cannon Runner

Whoa! Am I the only blogger around these parts..? Better post a game that are no less than two games in one then. Just to double the output. Choose wich game you want to play - a nice little shooter with a wonderful maggoty feel to the movement, or a tricky jump n' run where you play the cannon (hence the name of the game) - both are great little timewasters and feel really fresh.

Warbears Weekend!


Oh goody! Mission nr 3 is just out. But to remind you of the good stuff leading up to this latest mission, why not give 'em all another go. Or maybe you have'nt played any of them yet? Well, then you have an hour or two of wicked warbear puzzlesolving fun in front of you.

Mission 1 - The Bank Robbery
The evil groundhogs are robbing the bank!








Mission 2 - Training Time
It's training time for the Warbears.









Mission 2.5 - Puzzle block game
The Warbears are on their way to the location of Mission 3, but something has diverted their attention.









Mission 3 - An Oceanic Problem
An S.O.S. signal from the Gas Platform in the Great Ocean!

Headcase


And of course! Since it's only been like three weeks or so since we last saw a pixlish platformer in bright colours and nintendoish theme music from them, Nitrome as a brand new one for you. Great stuff. And good looking, as always. (And OK, maybe they didn't steal the idea for Yin Yang wich I accused them of, but hmmm. I still think it smells a bit fishy).

Excit


Personally, I hate MS Excel. Yeah, I know, it is really a brutally powerful tool if you know how to use it. And yeah, I do use it quite frequently, but being a Macophile I just can't stand the horrible interface... On the other hand I do like a good game, and when you take an old idea and gives it a new "suit" to suit your advergaming purposes, I 'm all in. Even if the "suit" happens to be the oh so horrible MS Excel.

Moon Master: Rahkon


While waiting for a really great game, here's a pretty nice gravitydriven shooter/collector game.

Blockslide II


Being home on paternity leave sure rocks - I can spend all night surfing for games as I'm already up changing diapers and resetting pacifiers... Anyhow. Here's an isometric blocksliding puzzler with no less than 150 levels and an editor for you who just can't get enough of the stuff. (I especially like the little spin the knight does when you solve each puzzle, looks exactly like the thing Tomas Brolin did when he scored.)

Sola Rola


Heads up! ...or down...or whatever direction it is... Spinning maze where you need to get Wiz and Waz (blue ball, red ball) to their matching exits. Some cooperation between them is necessary to open doors for eachother. Pretty easy at start, unnecessary long intro (wich I couldn't skip for some reason) and annoying tutorial chatting, but quite entertaining. Reminds me a bit of Roly Poly and Yin Yang.

Mr Mothball 2 - Cotton Carnage


I'm a fan of mr Skutnik's point n' klick adventures, but this is something completely different. It's still point and click, for sure, but this time, it's for firing stuff. A pretty nice little shooter, complete with an evil endboss. And no, this is not one of the best shooters ever made, probably not even top 100, but I do dig the graphics. (Don't dig the bug that made me spend 10 uneccessary minutes trying to kill the boss before I gave up and restarted though)...

Click Maze II


Another game of avoidance and getting that darn dot to the finish. Actually, the same game as Click Maze, but your cursor isn't affected by the walls and obstacles this time. Makes for a nicer gameplay.

Elv Is Black - Bunny Capture


Get the bunnies into the hole! Nice, simple, stylish and a tad twisted - just like we want 'em. And with an excellent intro.

Ostankino Dreamin


Great little game! From Russia comes this little gem - get to the top of the building, collect stuff like I-pods, golfbags and cars to earn points and bounce off exploding pigeons to gain height. Watch out for electric charges. You only got 30 seconds to start with, to increase your time you have to get to the next level/checkpoint, so don't stop to admire the view. Nice one! And quite hard. Haven't made it half way up yet, and I've given it faaaaar to many tries already.

Crazy Karts


Cute, cute, cute and pretty fun racinggame. Mario Kart miniclip style. Race and pick up stuff to use to beat your opponents. Did I mention I found it cute...?

Pac-Txt


So, you think Pac-Man is old school and retro? Well, here is how Pac-Man would look if it were really geriatrically retro and old school! Absolutely brilliant!
