Old school Freeware Games 06/05/2005 11:48 PM

ToastProphet Games is up and running offering a dozen or so old school retro 2D games for Macintosh, from stuff like homicidal OompaLoompas to Demonic Traffic Cones, there's a bunch of very odd quirky stuff, most comparable to EpicBanana's style of game programming. The games have their bugs but hopefully are entertaining and good for wasting a small bit of time. More advanced games are planned for release soon.

It seems that every recent story about Atari has been about their attempts (in their modern form -- quite different from the original Atari) to make a killing on the nostalgia market, offering up classic games from years back to today's adults -- either on computers or (increasingly) on mobile phones. However, it appears that many feel the basic concepts of old Atari videogames are still valuable for game designers to learn -- resulting in a competition to design new games for the Atari 2600. Of course, there's one twist: the games needed to be created in 24 hours. While the story is amusing to read, what it really does is remind people that, despite all the amazing graphics found in today's game, a game is still about gameplay at its core -- which many of today's game designers seem to forget.

Generally speaking, I like saving the cool stuff for Lockergnome's channels, but I found a couple of nifty tools today that I just couldn't wait to share with the world. First, a Command Prompt Explorer Bar (via Julien Cheyssial). Second, PhotoFiltre - one of the best free image editors I've ever found (courtesy of alt.comp.freeware). If it weren't for RSS, I wouldn't have discovered either one of 'em. Jason suggested that we start running a top ten "new feeds" list in our newsletters, so expect to see the first one next week. Oh yeah, I also learned about Peter Hirschberg's classics through my news aggregator. Still think I'm crazy? Good....

I am a very bid advocate of freeware and shareware. Thousands of very small companies 1-5 employees create a large percentage of the software released worldwide. Most of it as shareware but some programs are fortunately released as freeware. Please visit Webgrid they have a very large Freeware library. [Webgrid]

Screenshot YAFPC (Yet Another Free PDF-composer) can compose PDF documents from picture files and other PDF files, encrypt the created document, and send it to a given email address. YAFPC is designed to act as a command-line tool that combines with GhostScript to provide a network shared PDF printer which automatically adds letterheads, company-logos, watermarks, and Terms & Condition- pages to the printed documents, and then mails the document to the user who initiated the print job. It has a graphical user interface (GUI) for easy configuration and testing. Easy-to-use sample scripts for setting up a PDF-printer on Windows or Linux servers are included.
Changes:
This version fixes a bug where "Encrypt Output" only was working in testmode using the GUI for configuration when encryption was diasabled.

A port is essentially an opening into your computer, and it can be hacked. Someone can infect your machine with a Trojan horse in this way, and that's only one of a host of distressing possibilities. If you open your computer to the outside world, you're vulnerable to attack -- period. Port-scanning software tests your network to determine which TCP ports are vulnerable to attack.

Pickup Games, The Reckoning - Strange
Adventures in Infinite Space


Pickup Games, The Reckoning - Strange
Adventures in Infinite Space
06/18/2004 10:01 PM

sais.jpg
Well, my week is up, and I've saved as a parting shot the ultimate pickup game: Strange Adventures in Infinite Space, developed by Digital Eel and published by Cheapass Games. Games take just minutes.

There's not as much brain power required as there is in the other games from this week; in fact your score really has more to do with luck than anything else. But despite having probably less strategy involved than a game of Freecell, SAIS feels like it's smarter than it is, because it recalls elements of games with more depth, with its goals of space exploration, combat, trade and collection.

The demo is pretty crippled compared to the full version, but the full version costs only $15. Well, the PC and Mac versions do. There's PocketPC and PalmOS versions too (new Tapwave Zodiac owners take note!), available from Astraware for $19.99.

And with that fifth and final recommendation, I'm done! All five of the games I've mentioned this week are great for spending a few minutes with, but so playable that you'll be able to play for hours. Have fun, Gizmodo!
