Alite v1.5.4 (Android Game)

Alite is a fan port of the classic Elite from the 80s by Philipp Bouillon. Specifically, Alite focuses on the Amiga version.

Command your Cobra space ship in a fantastic voyage of discovery, adventure, and trade, a supreme test of your combat, navigational and entrepreneurial skills. Trade between countless planets, using the proceeds to equip your ship with heat-seeking missiles, beam lasers and other weapons – corporate states can be approached with little risk, but unruly anarchies may be swarming with space pirates. There is a lot of bounty to be made for the daring pilot. Do you have it in you?

Learn how to fly your Cobra in a series of face-to-face lessons from renowned Commander Quelo and profit from his vast experience. Remember: Black market trading can be lucrative but could result in skirmishes with local police and a price on your head! However you make your money, by fair means or foul, you must blast onwards through space annihilating pirate ships and hostile aliens as you strive to earn your reputation as one of the Elite!

Release notes:

Alite 1.5.4 comes with two (major) bugfixes:
1. The accelerometer controls are now stable. Previously, they froze more often than not after resuming a game. Now they work.
2. Music playback caused a crash on some devices. Fixed now.
Good hunting, Commanders!

Sodarunner v0.1.3 (Pandora Game)

Sodarunner is a small arcade game by jeeks featuring a thirsty student with the goal to empty out every single vending machine on the campus. Use B to buy drinks, press start to pause. In the score screen, use up and down keys to change the letters (press left or B when you’re done). Machines with an X over them are empty, the ones with a ! sell special drinks. The student’s current preferred brand will give you bonus points.

Changes:

– fixed PXML (hopefully)
– got rid of vsync issue
– brightened up colors in the cutscene
– obstacles! (first iteration; might be wonky)
– SFX! (still looking for music)

Kickman v1.003 (A2600 Game)

Kickman aka Unicycle Balloon Kicker by darryl1970 is a simple version of a balloon-popping uni-cyclist.

The author describes the making of in such a nice way, so we have to quote it:

I was bored, so I drew a KickMan uni-cyclist for the VCS. Since I had that sprite, I decided to draw a balloon. Since I had a cyclist and a balloon, I decided to animate them. I then added the moving balloons and ability to kick. Since I had the animation, I decided to add a simple tune. Since I had all of that, I decided to add a background.

The game already plays nice and is colorful, but it’s not yet complete. If the author keeps on working on this, very much depends on user feedback, as usual.
