BOH	author	1999	The game claims it isn't a shooter, and although it has significant elements besides shooting, most of the time is spent actually shooting an endless stream of enemies that is quite clearly pointed out to be endless. The game suggests ignoring the enemies and just exploring, but this makes it impossible to actually win the game since the enemies are so numerous and there aren't that many health pickups to deal with them.**BOH is a unique retro-flavoured puzzle-riddled maze game spiced up with thrilling action. You move in claustrophobic, mysterious, dangerous battlefields searching for the Evil Masters, who throw countless enemies at you until you discover and face them in the final battle. Although your quests are made slightly less hard by the power-ups scattered all around, carrying out the missions demands lots of concentration and quick reflexes. With BOH the fun never ends: new missions can be added anytime and you can even create your own! And, as if that was not enough, you can also customize entirely its audio-visual aspect! BOH has been created with lots of passion and care to offer, with its oldschool style, a fascinatingly different videogaming experience. FEATURES immediate & thrilling gameplay; * 45 missions divided in 5 levels of difficulty; * multi-phase missions; * multi-floor battlefields of any size and shape; * mind-blowing puzzles and deadly traps; * many and varied power-ups; * several different kinds of enemies; * hand-pixelled 2D graphics; * real-time field of vision and lighting; * atmospheric audio and rich soundtrack; * 7 themes; * online world standings; * possibility to add new missions and themes; * Danish, English, Finnish, French, German, Italian, Norwegian, Polish, Spanish and Swedish translations.

And Yet It Moves	Broken Rules	2009	(Jugado de principio a fin, epílogo sin completar) Un plataformas en el que giras el sentido de la gravedad. Pros: -Los puzzles sorprenden constantemente con nuevos elementos. -Su estética collage es convincente. -Muy buen trabajo de sonido. Cons: -Arranca lento: los primeros niveles son bastante monótonos. -Da bastantes fallos de colisión. 6 de 10***"And Yet It Moves" is basically a mixture between a jump and run and a puzzle game, with the extra ability to rotate the world. The player can run left, right and jump, but can also turn the world clockwise and counterclockwise by 90 degrees. When this happens physics works the following way: as soon as rotation starts all objects get frozen and after rotation objects continue to move with their velocities (direction and speed) they had before. With this ability you can move objects and yourself but also need to keep orientation and watch out for dangerous situations. Don't worry though, you're made out of paper so you can die as often as you want to. The overall goal is to get through this collage of ripped paper. And if you are quick - and don't die too often - you might get a good rank in our global highscore list. This is a gameconcept for a mediainformatics course held by the igw at Vienna University of Technology. We made two levels that show different aspects of how actual gameplay could be like. The first level - the cave - is more jump and run style and is an easy one where you can practice and improve your rotation skills. The second one - the jungle - is an advanced level with more sophisticated puzzles. To solve them you have to apply the physical consequences of rotating the world to the player and other objects simultaneously. [Broken Rules]

Sqrxz	-	2010	Initial release was for following platforms: [quote]Windows, Amiga OS4, MorphOS, NetBSD (x86 & PPC) and Symbian OS (S60v3/S60v5 & UIQ3)[/quote]**Sqrxz requires fast reflexes and is a simply mindblasting Jump’n'Run puzzle game with high frustration factor originally made in 1996 by Marcus Vesterlund (Maze) and John Holmvall (Hojo) for DOS and Windows 9x. Sqrxz (2010) is a remake of a game with the same name and has been created by Rodolphe Boixel (Thor), Shahzad Sahaib (Kojote), Simon Butler and Brendan Ratliff (Syphus). Minor support came from Marcus Vesterlund himself who also gave permission to redo his game. Denny Müller (Mulle) supported the team with a WordPress-Theme for the official page and Rabia Sahaib (Mahek) made three more levels. A remake should be usually bearing improvements, so does Sqrxz 2010. Beside the "classic" graphic mode, there is a new mode with "deluxe" graphics. The main gameplay has modified in a way that you need to collect all items to open the door at the end of each level, which makes some levels harder than they actually already were. Extended "fun" is guarantueed with additional three levels, unseen before. Each level does have it’s own chiptune and adds up to the retro feeling. A Top 10 highscore table will hold all your records. For the ones who like hidden features, there is even a small easter egg! Sqrxz uses code of the following Open-Source projects in an unmodified form: SDL, SDL_Mixer, libmodplug and zlib - you can get the source code of the mentioned libraries by visiting the respective homepage, as we do use the official standard versions. The use of those libraries is also promoted with a screen "ingame". If anyone wants to have the object files, feel free to ask. Features: Hardly any game will annoy you more! Frustration deluxe ahead! * Amiga’ish feeling! * 16 Levels including a "beginners" level * 18 Chiptunes * Classic AND new graphic mode * Top 10 highscore * Endless continue mode * Hidden easter egg

Join James Lee Quatermain on his journey across the globe! [b]The Story[/b] The year is 1938. James Lee Quatermain is a man of many talents, yet holding on to money isn't one of them. James is an adventurer by trade, just like his legendary great-grandfather Allan Quatermain. And he knows how to squeeze money out of this famous name of his, while at the same time despising it. Despising those who believe his great-grandfather's tales of the supernatural and those who make fun of them alike. Accordingly, Quatermain isn't all too keen on escorting Jennifer Goodwin, an US agent and former colleague of his, to an Egyptian temple structure in order to retrieve an ancient artifact - The Heart of Atlantis. Neither does he believe in the reputed invigorating qualities of this artifact, nor does he care the least that a division of the Ahnenerbe, the Nazi department specialized in the occult, is after The Heart as well. But life has its ways of changing one's perspective. Quatermain soon finds himself part of a hunt across the globe - from the stormy deserts of Egypt to the icy depths of the Arctic, and all the way to the steaming jungles of Guatemala. In long forgotten temple structures the thrill of the chase awakens the true adventurer in Quatermain, as he and agent Goodwin strive to be one step ahead of the Nazis and the Russians, one step closer to obtaining the Heart of Atlantis. And deep in these temples, where age-old guardians awake from their eternal slumber, James soon learns that his great-grandfather's stories are not as crazy as he had always believed. For all things live forever, though at times they sleep and are forgotten...
