]]> 22 Dec 2006 05:39:21 Monochrome is a top-down multiplayer game inspired by Tank Wars, Soldat and Crimsonlands. Players face off against each other in free-for-all mayhem. Gameplay is fast and furious with room for skill and tactical play, given the right group of players.

The game links size directly to health: If you're healthy you're big and easy to hit; If you're low on health you're tiny and can squeeze through narrow areas to get out of danger.

There are 5 weapons, each following a specific elemental theme, with a primary and secondary attack mode per weapon. They're designed to compliment each other and enable specific playstyles: A close-quarters fighter is going to enjoy the Flamer's high damage output and it's secondary ability to lay down globs of napalm to herd players and keep them from running away; Whereas a more timid player might prefer to stick to the Earth weapon's bouncing projectiles and grenades...

WASD + Spacebar to leap, mouse-aiming with LMB and RMB to fire.

Updated for Vista compatibilty. Please report any further bugs or issues...

As the planets slip faster and faster towards one another, a violent phenomenon takes place. The worlds collide, but with such force and magnitude that both planets fuse with one another, creating a unique and strange place.

We find our characters trapped amongst the chaos, struggling to figure out the new laws of their once beloved home. For the first time, they discover each other's presence. They are in awe. As they become more familiar with their surroundings, they find they have the power to affect their environment based on their proximity and color. With these newly discovered powers, they set out to uncover the source of this destruction and hopefully the means to restore peace and order to their lives and home.

]]> 12 Feb 2007 08:15:49 Scorched 3D is a game based on the classic DOS game Scorched Earth. Scorched 3D adds amongst other new features a 3D island environment and LAN and internet play.

The gameplay remains much like in the original game. Aiming towards a certain opponent is earily done with the A button, and after that the aiming with angle and power is exactly as in Scorched Earth. However, some weapons will react differently when landing due to the three dimensional terrain.

]]> 13 Feb 2007 01:38:57 Zatacka, also known as Achtung, die Kurve!, is a freeware, multiplayer DOS computer game that supports from two-player up to six-player gaming.

The game bears some resemblance to the game Snake, though in Zatacka the main goal is to make your opponent hit the wall, his kurve or your kurve. As a result, the game resembles closely to the famous Light Cycle of the 1982 movie Tron. You control the kurve by only two buttons: one makes the snake turn left; the other, right. Although the game has primitive graphics, the gameplay is considered very good and the game is loved by many fans worldwide.

There's a strategic and tactical depth that goes unmatched in the small-games-to-play-on-a-break gaming world. Even though the simplicity is striking (anyone can play it) there are an infinite amount of tactics that can be applied in this game.

It takes a minute to learn and a lifetime to master! Be warned though - it's addicting!
