VooDoo Chicken

 

I cleaned up the page. Microsoft is evil, blah blah blah etc. There are some free coffee break games and other stuff for download. Whatever you do with it is at your own risk, which means that if for using one of the games or anything you do in this site your country explodes, a black hole sucks all your family and your dog looses an eye, deal with it on your own, even if I was advised something may occur (not that I know there is something wrong with the things posted here so far). Hope you enjoy it.

Some of the things here have a 'Mac' version (when Flash exported in Mac executable format also), I have not tested them yet, though I suppose they work.

 

Travesía en el Hielo

Travesía en el Hielo (Ice trip). The one I probably like the most from my old games. Move the mouse and click to slap the fishes, keys 1, 2, 3, 4 to select which penguin gets it.

Travesía en el Hielo 2

Travesía en el Hielo 2 (Ice trip 2). A remake of my very first Flash game. It is basically the same mechanics, except instead of avoiding things in the water, you had to avoid ghosts, trees, pumpkins if I am not mistaken and other stuff. Graphics were lousy but the sound was great, so i expect to recycle that sound for something else; if I can find the files.

Travesía en el Hielo 3

Travesía en el Hielo 3 (Ice trip 3). It was intended as an advergame for a company that makes beverages, and has a penguin for a logo. It was not used for that, so I turned it into something different, but the result is something that almost makes no sense, tough I like the animations. Keys 1, 2, 3 to select action: change the penguin direction so he does not run out of the stage, grab it (to explode it), or recall more penguins. Explode the penguins on people when they seem to be getting too hot. Score depends on how many clothes are on the floor when you give something to a penguin; you give clothes to penguins to get more movements/penguins. No virtual penguins were harmed during this game (they reincarnate as Doom extras, then that's where they get hurt). Virtual penguin meat is recycled as virtual dog food so it does not get wasted.

Y2K, Reloaded.

So the year 2K went by and no planes fell, now we are safe. Not yet.. it turns out we have the very same problem elsewhere. To clarify, a little flashback: Old computers were very expensive, and unlike now where you get memory for cents a Mega, in those times you had to squeeze as many zeros and 1s wherever you could keep them. So, in payrolls and every system that used dates, the year 1976 was not saved as 1976 but only 76, since for the time being, it was understood that 76 was 1976 and nothing else. The problem arose when some of those systems, which went without being updated after a long time, reached end of the century and when the dates were being added, things like 99 (1999) had '00' as the next year, but since it was understood that every year had 19 as a prefix, the following year of 1999 was 1900. Ok, so we're over year 2000 now, now the memory is not that expensive, systems are updated, so what?
Mostly every program uses any of the clocks provided by the system, in whichever platform, whichever OS or whichever brand. It turns out, some of those clocks return a number of 'clicks' since a fixed date, and it stores the result in a variable with a fixed width. Those clicks are, for example, the number of milliseconds lapsed since jan 1 1970. The result is stored in a memory space with fixed width, so when adding one more, is like starting all over again (there is room for many clicks yet, though).

 

Salvemos a Precario

Salvemos a Precario. This one, rather than a game itself is more like a test to try aspects you would need in a side scroller. You may consider it a game with a half of a quarter of the length of a single level, with only one boss.

Control de Pestes

Control de Pestes (Pest Control). Aim, shoot. The basics.

PC Mac

 

Internet Explorer

 

Joy of Tech

 

 

Vertigo

Vertigo. This is what i mean by coffee break games -I call it 'arcade solitaire'-. Just stay on the track (it has a button to turn off sound, in case you are playing in the office).

Green Man on a Trip

Green Man on a Trip. Also, one of my first Flash games. I made it basically to test what I considered 'special effects' at the time.

POSSIBLE (as in, first they must be verified before doing something about it) medical causes worth studying:

Epilepsy - blinking lights. The quantity of blood in the brain may be different when looking at a bright picture than a darker one, since the brain needs less effort to understand the picture. The change between bright and dark causes flux of blood in and out, and it may be related with the basic physical damage of pipes when flux is irregular. Caution when placing a ceiling fan near the ceiling lights, because of the shadow projected.

Sudden death in babies because of lack of oxygen. Babies spit a lot (produce a lot of saliva), and have not enough coordination and muscle control/understanding to turn themselves to the right position. Most or all babies are left sleeping face up (how else), and probably while sleeping they choke with their own spit.
