Swindler
Swindler is an arcade game in which you control a greenish creature (that hangs on a rope) indirectly by rotating the world around it. Collect green stars, avoid enemy contact, activate buttons and find the treasure chest in each level. Gameplay mechanics remind me a bit of the Taito game Cameltry / On The Ball.
Verminest
Verminest is an old school shooter inspired by Galaga and 50′s Sci-Fi Movies.
Shoot enemies, dodge bullets and collect 4 different powerups. The game takes around ~40 minutes to finish and offers also an Anaglyph Mode in case you own 3D glasses.
Support this guy if you like his work.
Oh and be sure to check out the comprehensive “Trailer Making Of” as well. (Very detailed PDF with dozens of photos!)
Droid Assault
Droid Assault is a fast paced shooter that is inspired by the classic Paradroid.
Your mission is to destroy all robots in each level to progress to the next stage… However don’t kill all robots immediately because you cannot win the war without proper support. You need an army of robots! (the game offers 48 different ones)
So…in order to build that robotic army you have to use the convincing power of your laser beam to convert foes into friends. After that process you can control your newly acquired soldiers instantly and switch between them easily with the push of a button…
Build army, collect powerups, shoot robots. Awesome fun!
If you want to see it in action consider to check out this video that shows 15 minutes of unedited gameplay footage.
An overall fantastic game that every shooter veteran should check out. Highly recommended!
