All righty, so after uninstalling pretty much everything from this computer before leaving, I have a few little games I like, and I hunted down a bunch more. They're all perfect for blowing a bit of fre time on, so here goes:

Think Jenga Deathmatch - the higher your structure, the more territory you control. Just pray an opponent doesn't decide to heave a load of missiles at it.

Seiklus

Is it a game, is it minimalist art? Who knows - it's pretty fun though.

The biggie: ABA Games

This guy makes some truly awesome abstract shooters. The ones to check out would be: Torus Trooper, RRootage, Tumiki Fighters, Parsec 47, and Nois2a. Also, the translations are fab: "Speeding ship sailing through barrage. Tunnel style shooter, Torus Trooper!"

Every Extend

"Suicidal explodion' game with new feelings. blow up self to involve enemies!"

Warning Forever

Another abstract shooter like the ABA ones, but one boss fight after another, with a fascinating directional shooting system.

And finally: N
