Bugatro Gold http://www.deprice.com/bugatrongold.htm
Bugatron Gold is a well-designed space-shooter game borrows
ideas from classics such as Galaga. In Bugatron, you must
eradicate the evil alien insects, which swoop and dive at your
spaceship in a variety of formations. The polished graphics
added to our enjoyment, and the sound effects are blasting cool.
Cosmo Bots http://www.deprice.com/cosmobots.htm
Cosmo Bots takes its cue from the addictive classics Jezzball
and Qix. However, that's where the similarity ends, because
Cosmo Bots has different shapes for each level, 3D rendered
graphics, digital sound, new enemies, and tons of power-ups. The
free version features a full set of 50 levels to play, and does
not require any special hardware.
Bricks Of Egypt http://www.deprice.com/bricksofegypt.htm
At its core, Bricks of Egypt is an Arkanoid clone, but it goes
beyond replicating the frequently imitated art of busting bricks
to place a refreshing emphasis on creative level design. Sure,
there's a ball and paddle, but Arcade Labs layers these familiar
basics with Egyptian-themed power-ups, bonuses and special
challenges (such as hitting the water drops to extinguish fire
bricks or striking keys to unlock new areas on the screen).
Dropheads http://www.deprice.com/dropheads.htm
Meet the Dropheads, hilarious and loveable characters with
treasure on their mind. Help these strange little guys navigate
the seas by matching them in groups of four or more. Then, watch
them bounce off the screen. As you go, collect pieces of a
treasure map and assemble them to find the hidden loot. And with
two game modes, Arcade for those who like a fast pace and
Strategy for those who like a relaxing diversion, there's
something for everyone.
Star Defender http://www.deprice.com/stardefender.htm
Star Defender is a vertical scrolling space shooter and a
spectacular clone of Space Invaders. You are a test pilot flying
the Tornado. Your spaceship is controlled by your mouse. The
ship is limited to movement in the lower line of the play area.
Star Defender possesses all of the classic features of the
genre: professional and vibrant graphics, breathtaking gameplay
and an original soundtrack.
Alpha Ball http://www.deprice.com/alphaball.htm
Alpha Ball is a totally 3D entry into the Arkanoid/Breakout
genre, featuring simple controls and addictive gameplay. Each
level has built-in, completely 3D backward and upward
functionality, with great graphics and effects. The application
also features the new Suspend Game feature that lets you quit a
game and return to it later. The program has 100 levels, with
random level matching.
