The Little Thingshttp://bitquest.blogspot.com/http://forums.tigsource.com/index.php?topic=5829.0http://gmc.yoyogames.com/index.php?showtopic=428895demo available
"The Little Things is a puzzle-platformer with a focus on exploration and collection. There aren't very many places you can die and the generally twitch controls are downplayed. The point of the game is to explore your world both above and below ground and collect the titular Little Things -- small living beings that can survive in tiny glass flasks and cages, which range from small insects and tiny creatures to worldly spirits and magical wisps. As a Lomite Collector, your primary task is to explore the fantastic world and collect these tiny things in their natural and unnatural environments, but along this path you'll also find yourself selling and trading them to interested buyers for specific equipment and tools, visiting strange people and places, and encouraging metamorphosis of your Little Things through animistic and alchemical means.
In short, it's Knytt meets Pokémon, without the combat."

Warhogs Revampedhttp://gmc.yoyogames.com/index.php?showtopic=421676http://wraxulgaming.weebly.com/war-hogs.htmlgameplay video (level 1 with boss battle)
( 3:07 min / 23 MB - 640 x 480 MP4)
http://www.mediafire.com/?cgyeynqnjrz or on youtube
a promising platform shooter which is heavily influenced by contra and metal slug.
(more contra similarities though).
the graphics and controls are fine but the game lacks in level design, and overall difficulty problems...
(the 1st level is pretty good but the later are lacking)
this game has some good potential and could be really good with some work on the mentioned issues.
i recommend to give the
4 level demo a try (but consider that the keyboard is not working when a gamepad is plugged in...the developer said that this problem will be solved in the next release)
also interesting:
warhogs revamped is a
remake of
warhogs.
i played through the 5 levels in 20 minutes and it was pretty fun despite some flaws.
heres a
gameplay video of the whole first level (with boss fight that was quite a bit unfair

moreover some already finished worthwhile
freeware platform shooters to check out:
hurrican (tribute to turrican. 5 years in development)
t2002 (remake of turrican 2)
t4funeral (tribute with t2002 engine)
streambolt desero (short but fun with similarities to gunstar heroes)
mission extreme (retro platform shooter fun)
blob wars (bloody mission based platform shooter)
blip and blob (bloody comical platform shooter)
atomic butcher (bloody platform shooter with 360° shooting)
Secret Maryo Chronicles 1.852 MB (+ optional 35 MB Music Package)
http://www.secretmaryo.org/well i played an earlier version of this game (i think it was a pre 1.2 release) and found it not so good.
anyways...2 days ago there was released version 1.8 and i thought give it another try...
the improvements are notable and its now an ok game but still it cannot be compared to the greatness of the good old plumber.
controls are a bit slippery and some animations and graphics (the turtles) are meh...but that aside its a nice effort so far.
the fact that the developers are working and improving it and that it is a multi platform game (win, mac, linux) make it good enough to keep an eye on the further development.
Another Bound34 MB
Translated SiteOriginal Japanese SiteGameplay Videoan interesting fps with many similarities to metroid prime.
played this game when i first heard about it via
tim on his former
indygamer blog.
as far as i remember it was pretty decent...it was version 1.x or something...
today i stumbled over this game again and found out that there was released a version 2.0 called
another bound neo.
unfortunately the game doesnt work on my pc...
maybe it works for you...
and maybe someone know what to do to solve this issue....
anyways here is the older version
another bound 1.1.8 which works on my pc.
the game is in japanese (except the menu) and therefore...well its not an easy task to follow the story line if you dont speak japanese.
according to the readme another bound neo 2.0 was released 24.01.2008.
would be interesting to know what are the differences to version 1.1.8 and whether or not this game is still in development...
Indie Brawl2 MB
http://forums.tigsource.com/index.php?topic=2314.0a charmingly hotseat game in the vein of smash bros.
WIP available!
looking forward to further releases.
Indie Brawl is a multiplayer, 2-dimensional fighting game that pits some of the most famous characters from indie games against each other. The game will have simple and intuitive controls, a wide variety of characters and attacks, and fast-paced battles with platforming elements. The game should be easy to learn, but have enough depth that it's enjoyable for a broad range of players.
8BITARHEROhttp://www.insignificantstudios.com/8bitarhero/today i found out that the developer of
the underside is also working on an innovative multiplayer music game. 8bit music meets guitar hero. funny concept: playing a nes game while your buddy is trying to follow the music.
gameplay demonstration videoWhat is 8BITARHERO?
8BITar Hero is basically Rock Band except with a Nintendo emulator generating the music and levels.
Gameplay levels that are procedurally generated from the act of playing a game. One person plays NES games on an emulator, others play a Rock-Band game with levels that are generated algorithmically from the audio code of the NES game. The focus here is the generative nature of the game, and the process by which the levels are created.
XreaLThe highly advanced id Tech 3 engine and free indie game project
http://www.xreal-project.net/wordpress/http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=berBJRS7Ahkvery promising project.
prealpha version available.
XreaL will be a non-commercial multiplayer only first person shooter based on a heavily modified Quake 3 Arena engine (id Tech 3). The aim is to push the rendering technology until it can be compared with current commercial titles and then to produce a playable Total Conversion.
Q: What’s the goal of XreaL?
A: XreaL will be a non-commercial free multiplayer first person shooter similar to Quake 3 Arena. XreaL will be open source software and freeware. It will be a Total Conversion and not just an enhanced Quake 3 Arena modification.
CANCELED?i dont know if these games are canceled or still under development (and the developers pausing working on them)
Drawn To Be Aliveut2004 total conversion
http://www.moddb.com/mods/drawn-to-be-alivethis game is probably canceled since the last update was about 2 years ago.
but maybe the developers will continue their project or release an unfinsihed version sometime... cause the concept was pretty epic.
the
trailer is awesome.
Drawn to be alive' is an adventure/stealth game where the player will have the control of a character made of paper, extracted from a picture by an incredible magic Ink...
