Balloon in a Wasteland is a mashup of tower defense and sidescrolling shooter. You face waves of enemies while you work to repair your hot air balloon in order to escape. In the meantime, you can upgrade weapons, build fortifications, sleep, or set traps.
Fun little game - I played it a bunch last night. At [...]

Free Game Friday: Missile Command Online

Everyone know Missile Command. Looks like Atari updated their 80’s classic with online multiplayer, upgradable weapons, and boss battles. Too bad I don’t have a track ball.

Free Game Friday: One Button Bob

One Button Bob is a fun little game with a twist. The entire game is played with one button. What that button does changes from screen to screen. It reminds me of Aztec Adventure, or maybe Jumpman.

Free Game Friday: Final Fight

This is the wackiest version of Final Fight I’ve ever seen. Back in the day, I was one of those guys in the arcade who dumped tons of quarters into Final Fight and beat the game. I generally would play Guy. Occasionally, Haggar.
In this version, you’re fighting Skeletons and Mongols instead of gang members. It’s [...]

Free Game Friday: Atari 2600 Games

This is awesome. I just played all the way through the original Atari 2600 game Adventure. And then I played through both levels of Yars Revenge. The games don’t age well, but boy do they have nostalgia value. Happy Friday!

Happy Black Friday!
Sola Rola is a pretty cool little puzzler, very much like those handheld games where you try to roll the ball bearings into their slots. But in space!

Free Game Friday: This is the Only Level

“This is the Only Level” is a fun little game. There’s only one level, but it changes as your repeat it. It’s essentially a puzzle/platformer. Fun way to kill a few minutes on a Friday afternoon.

Free Game Friday: Crush the Castle

When I was a kid, I used to play an amazing game called Crossbows and Catapults. It wasn’t a video game - it involved hurling actual plastic chips via mini elastic-powered crossbows and catapults. It was truly awesome. As an adult, I managed to get a copy which is sitting safely right here on my [...]

Free Game Friday: Time Fcuk

Time Fcuk is a very Portal-like game. Each level challenges you to reach the end portal by changing “layers”, reversing gravity, and listening to the humorous advice of… yourself. Yourself from the future.
