Rocket Racers

This is a top-down racing game. I tried to give it a cartoony style, with lots of little in-jokes. You race a rocketship against four competitors, and can temporarily stun them with missiles. I'm very pleased with how this turned out, especially the opponent AI - they each have their own style. This game was sponsored by Addicting Games.

If you like this game - and in particular the mascot, you might like this desktop wallpaper. You can also buy some merchandising. There are T-shirts, mugs, badges and fridge-magnets sporting the mascot from the game.

Big Fish

This was the first thing I made with Flash. It's a game in the 'eat-em-up' genre - you start small and have to eat smaller things to get progressively bigger. I think it's pretty good, although a proportion of players seem to hate 'the controls'. Actually I think what they dislike is the physics - there is inertia in the movement, and larger fish are more bouyant. If you want to play a mouse-avoider game, this isn't it. I worked quite hard to give it challenging and diverse gameplay, and these conditions were what I felt made for a good game.

However, if you find you can't deal with the acceleration rate you're in luck - I made a version just for you. I call it Big fish, chipped. Personally I think it throws the balance completely off; you're free to disagree. This game was sponsored by Crazy Monkey Games, so I'm indebted to them for letting me make this alternative version.

 Piu Piu

With this game I took into account the fact that people seemed to want to play mouse-controlled collector/avoider games. And decided to punish them for it. Try it - it'll do your head in.

Don't say its easy until you can complete hard difficulty. This game was sponsored by Kongregate.

Oh, and the name and styling? I just thought it was fun.

Mathsspin

This is a maths game - wait, don't go yet! Surprisingly, its quite enjoyable - the gameplay elements make the difference. And it really does improve your mental algebra.

Troubleshooting

Games not working? First of all, check if you've got a recent enough version of Flash installed in your browser.

If you can see a green tick to the left, everything should be okay. If you see a red cross or nothing, you may need to install flash player. You need at least Flash player 8 for the games on this site.

If you're still having problems, email me and let me know the problem.
