Brainboy's Journal: Free Game RoundUp

Games that are free as in beer! So what games has been draining my GPA recently?

N: I think the best way to describe it is a minimalist platform game. It reminds me of Loderunner in a way. The game has a really neat physics engine, and because of it, the gameplay is really neat. Play it and collect the coins!

Eternal Daughter(scroll down) I've just started playing this and it's really friggin sweet. I've been on a slight platforming binge lately. I've just beaten Metroid Prime: Zero Mission on the Gameboy (in 5 hours and 25 minutes, I know I can do better) and this just fits right. Eternal Daughter conjures up memories of all the old Apogee platformers, off-beat story included. I didn't play much Nintendo growing up otherwise I imagine I would have said Metroid and Castlevania. Anyways, the controls are slick, and the story is actually pretty engrossing. At least so far.

Revenge of the Robot Cats from Mars. Galaxian style gameplay, with a fun twist of collecting coins to pay for upgrades. And the art makes me laugh. It's a thoroughly fun experience and a good time for all. ;p
