Tetris Friends.

I learned about Tetris Friends through Neave.com; Neave made a variant that is now one of its games. It's damn addictive.

I linked my TF profile in the "Me on the Web" section.

Eden's Aegis

A game that I found via Shoot The Core. Yesterday x.x updated the game to version 0.11, correcting a few misspellings and apparently changing how many items/pellets/whatever-they-are are dropped by larger enemies.

A replay is available.

“...and BOOM!”

So I was playing Warning Forever with some rather nice custom settings to see what sorts of monstrosities I could get to.

The replay is just my ship disappearing in a poof after that, since if there's a way to set the game to take full-game replays over multiple stages, I didn't know it then (nor do I want to record a big MPEG or something every time I play a game...it's rough on the frame rate...).

ARCANACRA!

Via the Simple Inspiration diary-blog-thing. You can play it on their site too.

...but we were invaded by evil life-forms.

I like DeeJyyIncompetent's mixes.

Blow MOAR sh*t up.

RAY-HOUND v0.900.91 is like v0.80 but with high score list, instant-replay, more options, new-game checkpoints every 10 stages, the apparent ability to ram and then "capture" enemies with the left mouse button—after which you can flail them around to somewhere else—and...cowbell please...SOUND!

My high score's below.

Titanion.

Just what one expects* from Kenta Cho. (Via Independent Gaming.)

*assuming your expectations are high and of sheer awesomeness.

Quantized Blaze.

I played a game of Quantized Blaze yesterday. Results of that Normal Game below.

GRADLE-UNISON.

In this weird Hello World Project game, you move and then left-click your mouse (or press the Z key) to move your whatever-you-call-that-spinning-thing across a board. The longer you move between each click, the stronger the shock wave you make after the click. The shockwave destroys enemies and gets you points.

Harmotion.

Harmotion is truly a dream game: a beautiful, multiplayer shoot-em-up. (I'm ranked 69 as of post time.)

(via Shoot The Core)

In a time long ago...a time of myth and legend.

A decade ago, Super Mario 64 was released.

Blow sh*t up.

I was checking the database for some shooters. It had the usual meh games. It also had two games of a BattleBlade series, which were good, and a great game called Hyperwars (I like its Gameboy-style graphics and it's even a bit funny).

When I saw Ray-hound in the list, though, I forgot about those three fast.

Hikoza.T.Ohkubo ("Hikware") made a game before Ray-hound, called Warning Forever, which I love for the gradually-tougher-bosses battles. Ray-hound is immensely different from that. There are increasingly difficult levels here, yes, but that's where the similarities end. You can't shoot, but you can use the left mouse button to slingshot dangerous rays of light back at cannons that launch them, or "flick" the mouse to boost the ship and reflect those rays. It's different from many games I've played, and while it does feel very different and weird at first, it's extremely fun, and even the deadly rays are a nice sight for sore eyes (though the other graphics are above-average at best).

No joystick is needed for the mouse-only, Windows-only game. It doesn't seem to have sound, instant-replay, or many options yet, but this also seems to be the first public version of it, and like wine, Windows, or anything else (except maybe Sony), it will certainly mature and age gracefully. I'll definitely be watching Ray-hound closely—I love it.

Eviludy does it again.

I liked the original Elf Sim Date RPG so I was pleased to see a sequel on Newgrounds' front page.

Fantine is utter hotness there, as before.

TGL password generator.

I found a password generator on GameSpot for a little game called The Guardian Legend. It was made some months ago, it seems. Whoever made it (one Jonathan Dale Kirwan apparently) wins many internets from me.

By the way, my future gravatar will be based on a scan of the August 2006 GQ (UK) from lohanpictures.com. Visit its sister site, LOHANonline.com—it's cool stuff.

The easy way to heaven (or as some call it, ABA Games).

You're welcome.

Grid Wars.

Via Shoot the Core's "PC database", I found a nice shooter called Grid Wars. I love it.

So how do I thank the author? Simple: I create my own Gfx Set for the game based on The Guardian Legend.

The set is in gwtglgfx.zip, an 88.3 kilobyte zip file. (Usage instructions are included in its "readme.txt" file. Check the download for viruses before further use.)

This whole freaking post is out of date. Grid Wars was taken down after an e-mail from Bizarre Creations of Geometry Wars fame, and I probably won't restore my download either.

Schweet.

I think that anyone would be impressed if, after four pitiful digg story submissions, they struck gold with their fifth. Am I thankful? To quote Greg Roelofs, "you betcha."

I've always enjoyed Neave's site, and knew that his completion of his Frogger would be huge and hugely cool news.

Idiot World's 8-bit Gamer Test.

I is dying of CRT radiation. I got 11/16 on the 8-Bit Gamer test. Take the test!

(without cheating, of course.) Thanks in advance to idiotlarry on digg.

RaidenX.

Why “game kid”? I like me some games, especially utterly beautiful games like RaidenX. It''s (still) ranked #3 among Newgrounds games as of post time.

Why, N**co, why?

You fulfill our hearts, and break them later. *sigh*

Hot.

A scantily-clad robot that turns into a fighter jet? I'm all for that.
