Those cheeky bastards![/quote]i know!
here's another 10 btw. with even more blatant cheekiness at no. 53:
51. Checker - Checkers, or draughts, if you like. this looks like it was intended for something else, maybe an educational clone - theres a "home" option on the title menu that just resets back to the same menu. Seems to work pretty well, but the music sucks.
52. Beast - or "Animal Contest" on the title screen. terrible excuse for a game. you press A to release a random animal from your tent thing, then the computer does the same, and both animals are taken by whoever is judged to have the "better" animal. You both start out with 18, the game ends if one person loses all their animals, but that will never ever happen. (that said, I let it sit there playing itself with the autofire button taped down, just to see what happened - the computer eventually won, but it still progressed to the next stage, which is a different colour. totally worth the wait) And to top it off it has the same shite music as Checker.
53. Football - exactly the same as no.5. for fuck's sake. 99 unique games and one repeat!
54. 1942 - unmodified
55. Sudden Strike - another fairly simple original. not too bad i suppose, compared to some of the crap on these things. you have a tank, you have to shoot trucks in a sort of pseudo-3d landscape, theres a little radar showing you where they are. thats about it.
56. Snowball - a Sokoban clone with a snowman pushing snowballs into holes. I'd like to say they took some inspiration from Snowman Legend on the Gamate but I know no one apart from me has ever played it. I think its a hack of another Sokoban clone but I can't remember its name - its not Porter, and the background music is Frere Jacques. any ideas?
57. Seaport Guarl - yep, Guarl. thats what the title screen says. this one also has kinda decent music, and also involves a tank - its top-down, and you do indeed have to guard a seaport. and another seaport, and another, and etc.
58. Pizza Boy - guy on a scooter, you have to pick up pizzas from a shop and deliver them to people around a town with constantly shifting obstacles. i'm sure i've played a better take on this same idea somewhere before.
59. Bump - no idea. you're a ...rabbit (probably), you're in water, and you have to knock these green things into whirlpools in the corner of the screen. plus it has rotational controls for some reason. i guess it's a bit like pool, if you controlled the ball, and it was a rabbit. yes.
60. Beach Ball - okay this is the last one for now, or i'm going to go insane. you control a bubble (not a beachball), it can absorb smaller objects than itself, and you get bigger if you absorb enough of them. and avoid the spikes! thats it. [/quote]Can you please help me beat stage 15 of the snowball game. ur # 56
