Some Older Games

Here’s a list of some older games, which do not seem to be actively maintained anymore or have another reason for disappearing into the background:

• Bloboats, row row row your boat in this physics game.
• DROD (Deadly Rooms of Death) Architects Edition, a nice puzzle game. Don’t forget to download the extra holds!
• Little Fighter 2, hot seat multiplayer fighting game.
• Zep’s Dreamland, original puzzle game, according to the website, it will be ported to the iPhone soon.
• Trackballs, a Marble Maddness clone.

Secret Maryo Chronicles

Yes, I know, the world is flooded with Mario clones and remakes of remakes of remakes, but that doesn’t make this one less nice to play: Secret Maryo Chronicles.

From the website:

Secret Maryo Chronicles is an Open Source two-dimensional platform game with a style designed similar to classic sidescroller games. SMC uses the platform independent library SDL and the OpenGL accelerated Graphics Renderer for the best possible graphics quality.

One of the best features of this clone is the in-game level editor!

For more free Mario action see Softendo and Acid-Play (and many, many, others!)

Jumpman

It’s not a very original post, but I too like the game Jumpman. It’s a pity it doesn’t run on Linux (incl. Wine) so this game will make up my coffeebreak fun for a while.
