Gazillionaire is quirky business sim similar to the game of Monopoly set in outer space. You are to set your own business and buy and sell goods for a good price. But your not alone, you'll be going against other competitor in the game of business. Luckily you'll also be able to hire more crew members for a price and once in a while you may actually gain some extra cash and devious offers. But that's all i can tell you about the game, you'll have to find out the rest for yourself. I found this game to quite enjoyable, even though it's a business sim. You can try and buy this game by following the link: Gazillionaire

Recently the game Tee Wars has gotten a recent update with the game and the name. The newest version 0.4.0(now updated to 0.4.1) has quite alot of major changes with the engine and in addition with the engine changes, the editor has been updated and now if there is a servers with a map you dont have, the game will automatically download it for you. Don't worry the game is still as fun as it was before (maybe even better). You can get the complete list of changes and the game here: TeeWorlds (0.4.1)

Water Storm is a multi-player side scrolling 2d shooter (kinda like Soldat). Like Soldat, this game isn't just run n gun, there is a certain amount of strategy involved. You have a variety of weapons to choose from before you start the match. This game also has the variety of game modes you'll find in most shooters ( deathmath, capture the flag, etc.) and some unique to the game. What I really liked about this game was the environments, they just look so pretty. I also like the built in level editor that allow you to create levels of your own. You can download and play the game for free! But if you like it, you should donate, you just may get something extra! You can get the game here: WaterStorm

Secret Maryo Chronicles
Secret Maryo is another Mario Fan Game in the hundreds of thousands of Mario Fan Games. But this one is an exception since this game was made from scratch instead of being poorly pieced together with glue paste, textures and sprites from other Mario games which is kinda sad really (i'm not going to name names, but you should know what fan games I'm talking about). Anyways, this game features a kid named Maryo and basically it plays like any other Mario game except some of the controls are different (like the fire button is separate from the run button). The music in this game was made with the use of garage bands, and pc programs which actually sound pretty nice, plus there are some original tracks as well. I have to honest, when I played this game before, I wasn't too impressed, but when I played it again, I got passed the amateurish artwork and just played it. Even though it doesn't look amazing, you can tell this game was made with alot of effort from the creators. With that in mind, you should try it out yourself to see if you like it (plus it's free!):Secret Maryo
