World of Padman	Padworld Entertainment (Color Your World)	2007	[media=youtube]GXt4hRxAqWI[/media]***A cartoonish first-person-shooter where toys blast each other with plastic guns in and around a gamer's home. WoP began as a Quake III Arena mod but became a standalone game after ID Tech 3 (the Q3A engine) was opensourced. WoP has no Capture the Flag mode as Q3A and no a single player campaign (currently, 2011-05) but bots of various skill levels are provided as opponents for offline and online play. Every mode includes scoring points. It is multiplayer focused. It has no health powerups items, rather health is restored at revival stations. Unique modes featured in WoP include Spray Your Color, Big Balloon, and Last Pad Standing. Spray Your Color involves claiming as many rooms as possible by blasting your logo on a wall in each. But, ink to blast your logo with can only be collected from an enemy player. SYC can be played with or without teams. Big Balloon involves camping at a balloon to claim it then camping to make it grow. It is only played with teams. Points are awarded for claiming, minimum size passed and maximum size reached. Plus bonuses for claiming multiple balloons. Last Pad Standing is a tightly designed free-for-all where the HUD is limited and there is a 'here I am' marker that makes camping the most likely cause of death for the camper. Each player in LPS is allotted a set number of lives and becomes a spectator on lose their last one. Last one standing receives a massive score bonus (nearly always resulting in winning). [Zerothis]

Zelda Classic	Armageddon Games	2007	Remember how hard the original was without maps and guids? The 4th quest (usually launched after the 2nd), is much harder than the 1st and 2nd combined. Then the 3rd quest (usually played last), is even harder. And there's a 5th quest.***An unofficial [i]near[/i] pixel perfect recreation of the original NES classic plus additional quests. Also includes an editor; using the Zelda Classic Engine to make completely new games in the style of the original game, Link to the Past, and Link's Awakening. Engine and game creation tools of the editor are extensive enough to create platformer games and other games that don't resemble any Zelda games at all. Upon finishing the 2nd quest with 16 hearts, players will begin the '4th' quest (because its easier than the 3rd). To play the 3rd quest after the 2nd, complete it with fewer than 16 hearts. Beat the 3rd quest [b]without dying[/b] to play the 5th quest. Beat the 5th quest with at least 1 death to play the 4th quest.[spoiler=Naming your player certain names will allow starting a quest immediately without having to play through other quests;close passwords]ZELDA=2nd Quest ALPHA=3rd Quest GANON=4th Quest JEAN=5th Quest[/spoiler] The frequently updated versions often do not get corresponding Linux versions. Quests sometimes do not work correctly unless they are matched with the version they were created for. Generally, only the latest Linux version is available from Armageddon Games and this is located in a hard to find spot on the site (and changes). Despite this, all Quests can be played on Linux once a compatible version of the player is downloaded by whoever may be providing it currently on the internet. 2.10 2.10.2 2.10b784 2.10 lost isle build 2.11 2.11 lost isle build 2.50
Balazar III 3D	author	2008	Balazar III is a dungeon adventure game with multiplayer support. As you explore the dungeon, you'll gain magical objects, experience and powers, but also... curses ! Balazar III is based on the (French) comics "Le guide Balazar du mauvais sorcier" (Balazar's guide to bad sorcerers). The game comes in two versions (which are network-compatible): - 3D version destined to computer gamers. The 3D version is graphically more beautiful, as it takes avantages of the nice cellshading algorithms of the Soya 3D engine. - 2D version, currently supporting 640x480 and 800x480 resolutions. It has been designed mainly for hand-held devices (Sharp Zaurus, Nokia N810, Openmoko Freerunner, Asus EEE PC, and the like), although it can be used on computer too. This version has been highly optimized so as it can be run in 640x480 on a Zaurus C1000 (416 MHz ARM processor without graphics accelerators). This package is a metapackage depending on the 3D version.

Asylum	Digital Psychosis	2009	A port of the Acorn game of the same name; now available from the public domain. Sometimes a cigar is just a... ...representation of a insane brain cell powered teleporter from your ego to you id. Journey through young Sigmond's unstable mind and disable a few malfunctioning brain cells to restore his sanity. Grab anything that doesn't move, shoot everything else, shut down brain cells, and kneel before the candle candelabra. The original game, source and binaries, was declaired Public Domain by the author. The author of this port claims GPLv3. Strictly speaking, this is a tinuous license if even valid at all, since it is based on a work in the public domain. Licensing it as GPLv3 puts it under copyright, which is unconstitutional (for a PD work) and has never been done by person or entity other than the US congress (and they do so unconstitutionally as well).
