Zwingo
This is a simple game in which you control a small white ball that you swing around on a string. The object of the game is to prevent the black balls that enter from random directions from knocking the large white ball out of the ring in the center. You do this primarily by slamming into the black balls with the ball on your string, knocking them away from the white ball. But another tactic you can use is to steer the black balls to hit the white ball from the side that knocks it towards the center of the ring.
The game plays in rounds, like boxing, and each time you survive a round, the large white ball is re-centered and you have the opportunity to use points to buy various upgrades.
Galactic Gravity Golf
Galactic Gravity Golf isn’t your usual flash putt-putt game. You’re teeing off into space and you’ve got a hell of a swing, hitting your ball interplanetary distances. Your ball is attracted and deflected by the gravity of various bodies. There are additional modifiers that come into play, energy barriers, worm holes, bombs. If your ball takes on fuel, internal rockets can power up and allow you to change direction and velocity in flight.
Redesign
I redesigned the block for a light on black theme with a stronger graphical component. I know a lot of people used to reading paper don’t care for light on dark text, but I think most people who are going to be into computer games will grock it OK. I welcome your feedback either way.
Shift
Shift is a puzzle game with a unique twist. I’m not going to post a bunch of graphics because I don’t want to ruin it for you. Suffice it to say it’s unique and addicting. Try it!
