Try to clear the 3 levels with 100 percent in this Action Shmup. Stratagy is as important as fast fingers here, as your advisaries will close in on you if you get to deep into hostile territory. To end the level just move forward off the top of the room, in this way you are able to skip ahead a level, although you don't get 100 percent this way.

NEW to this iteration: volume control, many tweeks to the game play, looks, and sound, just get the new version!

Developing games for the windows OS can be quite frustrating as every system hardware is unique, leading to inadvertant strangness and an uneven player experiance. We here at iterationg GAMES would positively lov to bring you some fine games for this cool handheld LINUX unit. but alas the funds are low,.

The current funding drive total will b posted as the donations come in.

if you would prefer for alternative support methods. thanks for supporting the arts. jph lovs you.

This is an old game ( build in 03 ) that was never quite finished, its a bit more low tech but quite fun to play. The gameplay is a bit complex, see if you can clear the 3 levels! The online gameplay and game save ability has yet to be added.

Here is a ReMix of the arcade classic Wizard of Wor. It features some of my best sounds, two player co-operative play, and an interesting A.I. in single player mode. Dedicated of course to my boy George jr.

A lava lamp style simulation, digital molten hot magma. Currently the settings are self randomized. To install it as a screen saver just right click and use the install option or move the .scr file to your windows folder. Use the Arrow Keys to set the gravity direction. Any other Key or Mouse movement and it ends.

This frantic mouse controlled game builds slowly till your inevitable defeat, go for a high score. The gameplay is reminiscent of the classic Missile Command, with some twists mixed in. Additional graphics created by Graham Lackey and Gabe Brooks.

note: if you don't have a 3 button mouse you can simply use the LEFT, DOWN, and RIGHT arrow keys instead. Have fun, Cheers.

"Listen, I can't get involved. I've got work to do. It's not like I like the Empire, I hate it, but there's nothing I can do about it right now. It's all such a long way from here."
- Luke Skywalker

The power is in the hands of us the people. It's in the choices we make every day. The human creations we are willing to accept. The sick greed of Empire should not be one of them.

This here's a game you only need press one key to play. I made this for two main reasons; accessibility for ppl who may use different interfaces to the game, and as a game design challange. For more such games OneSwitch.org

The game is very simple to play; the player controls a mono-eyed creature, as it moves Clockwise it also moves in towards the Core, Anti-Clockwise and moves it away from the core,. landing it on the Core increases the Level as well as generates a Level up Bonus. The hiscore is saved.

If you have a slower system, you can toggle off/on some of the graphic effects using the 1-6 keys. This i029b is a bugfixed ver. If you have the old one with out the 'b' you have to press the 2 key to get the nice blue trails!

Sub Atomic started as a remake of an obscure Taito arcade machine called The Electric Yo-Yo (1981). This release is a traditional remake of the game, that once beaten will un-zip the next game.

Don't run this from the compressed folder, put it somewhere, i.e. desktop, games folder, etc. as it will decompress the Sub_atomic.exe in that same place.
I have been told that this 3 level intro. is a bit tough to beat for some ppl,. and as you don't use the same skills in Sub Atomic I'll tell you a code to skip a level; when playing the game, HOLD down the INSERT key and then press PAGEUP. Using that trick you can unlock Sub Atomic straight away.

This one is a fan remix of the two classic arcade games from the early 80s.

The game re-mix features 7 levels, insainly tough game play, most of the creatures from the two original arcade games, and a huge boss battle on the last level,.
