POWDER is a roguelike developed specifically for the Gameboy Advance (GBA). It is not a port of an existing roguelike as the controls of the GBA are very different from the traditional keyboard, and the screen imposes some additional limitations. It is built around replayability and long term ergonomics, not short term learning. It uses actual graphic tiles (16×16) rather than the traditional characters.

Although MarioBreak! is a breakout clone, it has alot of cool new gameplay.For example, if the ball hits the floor. The floor will sink, each floor tile can be hit 3 times before it completely sinks into the lava. Mario , ofcourse, can’t stand on the lava so that makes it quite hard. Luckily there are enough powerups for Mario to collect (such as a mushroom which restores the floor tiles). Also if mario collects coins, he can fire a canon with the A-button. The canon will take 1 row out. The more coins you collect the higher the canon will go. The game features multiple levels.

This is a polished Sudoko game by N64Francois. The release has been marked as demo, but is playable.

You try to fly down a narrowing tunnel. Pressing any button makes you rise, doing nothing makes you fall. The game is almost finished but does not have a title screen or highscore list yet.
