        Oh, you mean when games were fun?

        Zzzzzzzz...

        Everyone crystalizes a certain era of their life (usually early/mid teens) as being the most fun period of time in the history of the universe, to all people, over all time. Of course this is complete B.S. - Like you I had this foolish notion that earlier games were much more original and enjoyable.

        Then I booted up MAME, and several other emulators. Boy did I have my rose-coloured memories shattered. The Pitfall of my memory turned out to actually be some trivial,
        • Nah, wrong. I had a phase in my life when games were FUN. And I had a "fun period of time", as you call it. Problem? These are two separate periods. I had lots of fun not playing games and I've seen a lot of fascinating games in a bleak period of life. I play those games from time to time and guess what - they're great! Original, enjoyable, focused on gameplay, not FX. Replaying them somehow didn't shatter my memories.

          I'm not saying that good games are not made anymore - I just don't have the time to search
        • Nope, I'm sorry but you are not exactly correct.

          Sure, there are some games which definitely don't live up to the memories, but then there are a good number that do. I'd much rather play Rampart, Robotron 2084, ToeJam & Earl, ZANAC or the original Legend of Zelda than, say, God of War.
        • Everyone crystalizes a certain era of their life (usually early/mid teens) as being the most fun period of time in the history of the universe,

          That's funny, the games I think of back then that were more original are from the time period $BEFORE_I_WAS_BORN to about age five. I didn't really play many games back then.

    • One great game that didn't get mentioned in the gametunnel article, but gets user votes and good talk in the forums there is Battalion at http://www.urbansquall.com/ [urbansquall.com].

      If you are a fan of turn based strategy, and if you liked previous games like Militray Maddness or Advance Wars, you will probably love Battalion. Best of all its mostly free and multiplayer if you want. At east worth checking out, I was hooked for a few months.

      Aside from being released almost three years ago (hey, it's 2006!), ET doesn't exactly qualify as an "independent" game. It was published by Activision, and would've been commercial if all the factors had lined up properly.

      Just for clarification, "independent" != "free". The games on the list may have demos available, but most (if not all) of them will cost you $10-$20 for the full version. That's still better than $50-$60 you'll pay for a commercial game, but it's definitely not free.

      • I was in no way trying to say this is an independant game I was just tyring to plug it :]
        • And I'll second the plug. This game has kept me entertained for years when the games I actually buy get old and obnoxious. Something about it keeps me commin back.

          Download this game. It's not warez, it's free (as in beer) and high quality. Oh, and for the most part, punkbuster actually keeps out the punks.

      For 2004, only ONE title (Gish) was listed as supporting Mac and Linux. In 2005, there are no less than FOUR.

      I wonder if this means that more titles overall are being released for these platforms.
      • Note that little item in #4's list of requirements: Java

        That's right people, Tribal Trouble was created by a long-time Java programmer. Don't be surprised if more and more Indies are done in Java. Cross-Platform support comes free, and development tends to be easier and faster. Tribal Trouble wasn't the first Indie game done in Java (*cough*heresafew [puppygames.net]*cough*), and it won't be the last. :-)
      • "I wonder if this means that more titles overall are being released for these platforms."

        Yeah, if you look around a bit, you'll see a lot more cross-platform releases, and that's great. A number of indie developers started reporting large Mac sales in 2005, like 30-50% compared to their Windows sales. As a result, a lot of devs started writing cross-platform code so they could hit Mac OS X. It wasn't hard to port to Linux if you were already developing for Mac, so Linux players got some trickle down.

    • DOwnloaded the demo, and after 20 tries, a game is always: run around until you meet the first enemy who will kill you dead in 10seconds.

      I managed ONCE to get a chance encounter that actually didnt kill me...

      Am i something missing or is this really like elite 1 20 years ago, only 20times more retarted and with worse graphics?
      • If it's like the original, there is a difficulty setting. At the easiest level, you can survive most encounters, and at the hardest, you'd best avoid every fight until you're able to get better shields, engines, weapons etc. The random nature of the game means that's sometimes not possible.
      • It's supposed to be a more coffee-break/arcadey version of space conquest games. You run around and try and get lots of cool stuff, maybe blow up some guys, attempt to get a good score.
      • Space combat is WW's end game, you completely suck at it with the gear you start with. Until you've upgraded significantly and got a few more ships, you should run away from any hostile aliens you meet.
        • Well, i would LIKE to upgrade.
          But I cannot sell or by anything, and whereever i move there usually is an enemy (who will kill me with the starting equipmnt).

          Ok, twice i found an "artefact ship" instead, once it had a weapons (that wasnt much stronger than the build in one9, but the other time it became hostile and killed me, too).

          Maybe the demos timeframe is just to short, because serching for non-hostile stars will make the game end before you find one, usually...
          • It definitely takes a bit to get the swing of things. If you haven't encounted the Klackons you probably want to run from every battle. The klackons give you a device that you can use in battle (top of the screen) that lets you call them in...they are pretty tough and will help you win. There are of course dozens of other power-ups and mercenaries you can run into...depends on how you play and your objectives, but I did run into the same problem when I first played it.

  • To be honest I wasn't too impressed with the screenshots of Darwinia, but one day being bored of playing Day of Defeat:Source I downloaded the demo of Darwinia. I was instantly sucked in. I am not too high on the startegy game genre, but found Darwinia to be a 'just fun' game. After finishing the demo I was left with a craving for more and have not regretted it one bit. Darwinia is hands down my #1 pick.
    • I agree.

      I played the demo of Darwinia sometime a while back when it was shown on TechTV, and enjoyed it then. When I saw it pop up on Steam recently, I downloaded it again and was pleased to see that the controls were much improved (you used to have to draw mouse gestures to run programs, and you used to have to aim both sides of a dish to cross open water). I haven't purchased the full version yet, but at $20, I may just have to.

    This game is sadly overlooked, and although independent it blows away the competition in terms of gameplay. And yes, I have the boxed version, even though Valve took pity on the devs and released it over Steam to give it a US audience.

      Darwinia really is a fun game, if a bit short. The Tron-esque retro look is cool (and nostalgic, for those of us old enough to remember when Wolfenstein 3D was bleeding edge), plus it meant that they didn't have to hire legions of 3d artists to make a good game. In addition, the plot is really captivating. It introduces the player to artificial intelligence concepts like genetic algorithms (GAs) without being boring and pedagogical. And this is coming from someone whose life's work really does focus on GAs - their take on the topic was quite honestly fascinating.

      But us Yanks didn't actually have to go through Steam to play it until it was released on Steam. I ordered the game the old fashioned way before its Steam release, and was able to download it from Introversion's servers as well as receive a hard copy on CD shipped from the UK.

      Why they changed their distribution method, I don't know, unless it was somehow actually cheaper to use Valve as their US vendor rather than doing it the other way. Or maybe Valve is giving them promotional opportunities (i.e., advertising) that they couldn't get before.

        They changed because they couldn't afford the money to get shelf space. This way, they can't lose money if the game doesn't sell.

        With Steam, they save bucketloads of money and get a virtual box in the shelf-space on every of the millions of computers that have Steam installed. Every user sees that advertisement every time they go to pick a Steam game to play unless they've changed that option in the Steam settings. They can play the demo in just a few minutes on any computer that they want to since a Steam account can be used on as many computers that the person want to play those games on.

        I run LAN servers and notice that very few people shut off the advertisements because the target audience is the correct one, the ads don't take any extra time to load, they can be disabled, and the ads aren't obnoxious. Instead, people are more likely to talk about the new games that show up in the advertisements or news.
