Armada Online (AO for short) is an Online-Only, space-based RPG set in a pseudo 3/4 isometric perspective. In AO you will take part in a vast universe, taking a role as a starship captain, honing your character's skills and amassing great wealth as well as building up your ship into a great powerful vehicle. There are a multitude of different Main Guns, Secondary Systems, lots of enemies, and two different factions to play for: Nomad Empire or the United Systems. You will also be interacting with NPCs, other players and Trading outposts as well as taking part in a series of instanced scenario campaigns to further increase your overall strength and destroy Armada invaders, as well as eliminating the opposing faction.

Armada Online is in Open Alpha status. This means that while a majority of game play components (ships, movements, skills, advancement, etc.) is in place - most of the game content is still under development. Even so - Armada Online's alpha game is incredible and complex. There will be plenty for any new player to learn and enjoy and new content is being added continuously. Because it is in alpha status, be patient with any glitches and actively report them and your feedback to the official Armada Online forums to help improve the game for all. That's what open Alpha tests are for.

    Contains bullet hell style mayhem and curry.

    Sadly, the entire development of this game was plagued by more trouble than is humanly believable, but being a determined muppet that I am, despite 1 computer biting the dust and a serious illness inbetween I've managed to cobble something together out of the sprawling mess. Mainly in 48 hours.

    So, its not quite the game I wanted it to be, so keep an eye out for v2 soon.

    ]]>     07 Mar 2007 01:33:16     Tank Brigade Well, after quite a bit of work on JumpStart and one of its demos Tank Brigade I have decided to release the demo as a full working game. Basically its a single level game built around JumpStart. The Map to play on is randomly selected from a set list (currently 4 maps) and play exists of you trying to destroy all of the enemies on the screen. Some maps are generated procedurely and some are hard coded.

    In the relased version sound is supported (turned off by default, turn it on in the options screen). I'll warn you now that the sound can get a bit annoing. Luckily you can press escape, go to options, turn it off, back, and resume game.

    Graphics are completely from SpriteLib GPL. If anyone wants to take the time to create real graphics for the game I'd be happy to add them in and add on a credits screen.
    ]]>     05 Mar 2007 09:33:21     Secrets of the Domus Aurea Secrets of the Domus Aurea is Eon Clash's entry into the Pascal Game Development contest 2007. Keep an eye on the home page for more information and downloads as they become available.

    Storyline
    In the year 64AD (after the Great Fire of Rome) Nero built the Domus Aurea (or "Golden House"). This is the story that is known. The story that is not common is the secret that the Domus Aurea hides and of your adventures within.

    It is now 5 September 476 AD and yesterday Romulus Augustus was deposed (history will show that he will not be replaced). During Rome's fall stories of a powerful secret hidden within the catacombs of the Domus Aurea have surfaced, and being the curious type that you are, you have set out to find the truth or fiction of them.

    ]]>     13 Feb 2007 04:40:27     La Mulana La-Mulana is a freeware free-roaming platformer game designed to look, sound, and play like a classic MSX game. It's heavily influenced by the classic Konami MSX game 'The Maze of Galious' and anyone who has played that title will probably recognize the similarities very quickly. You play the whip-wielding Indiana Jones-esque archaeologist Lemeza Kosugi as he investigates the ancient ruins of La-Mulana in an attempt to find its treasure and one-up his father, who is trying to get the same treasure as well.

    The game is huge, with many different areas to explore and dozens of items and weapons to find. Each area has a large variety of puzzles and traps and you need to solve the puzzles in each area to discover the Ankhs and Ankh Jewels, which allow you to fight the eight Guardians of the ruins. To solve the puzzles you'll need to be able to read the tablets scattered throughout the ruins, which will require a Hand Scanner and translation software for the portable MSX that Lemeza has brought along on the adventure. Your Hand Scanner will also allow you to find items and search the bones of less fortunate adventurers.

    Note that the original game comes in Japanes, so apply the english patch (link at the bottom).
