"I was thirty seconds in, and I remember remarking in an IM window off to the side that this game was only 'dark' insofar as it was darkening my opinion of it. And then the power went out. Bam, instant three stars."

This is a BIT.TRIP BEAT inspired variant of Pong and/or Breakout. You have no opponent, but the ball obeys gravity and will arc down to you after you knock it upward. There's a second, subtler twist, though, so keep playing to see what it is.

Mouse to move.
Click to place the first ball.
Get the ball to a height of 100 to unlock Hard Mode.

This is a sequel to TrailblaZer which brings it back to its Snake roots. Collect the pulsing blocks, but you can only pass through walls of the same colour as yourself. Each time you turn, you change to the next colour in the RGB sequence.

This is inspired by my previous game, Gridball. As the ball in this game moves at a fixed speed in only cardinal directions, you have to prevent it from hitting the dangerous terrain by dragging nearby bricks into its path. But when it hits a brick, it turns 90 degrees and destroys the brick, so you'll need to deploy them carefully and quickly!

Use the mouse to move and click to fire. Probably a huge CPU hog.

i'm so sorry
