The Best Free Online (in-browser or downloadable) Games

OK, I beat 2048 and Doge 2048 and Numberwang 2048 and now please can I stop playing this game?

*twitches*

only after you will make one of your own:

and win the lol Flappy 2048:

so we're at the stage where every half-decent game idea has to be flogged to death by lol!!such random!?!?!! wankery now

yup

maybe need a special tag for this thread then

(downloadable)

fun little platformer, this is the type of game I want to make. A flip screen retro looking platform maze game that's simple and stress-free. Perhaps with a little bit more to do but love the emulation mode on this one.

I can understand his annoyance at the 2048 thing, but NAGL to get your twitter followers to pile onto an article abt a kid who'd never seen your game and made a free sorta-clone of someone else's free sorta-clone of your game in Javascript as an experiment, didn't try to sell it or advertise it, got surprised by its success, and added a link to your game (which plays differently anyway) when called on it, imo

(haven't actually played Threes because last time I looked it was iOS only, now see it is on Android too, may check it out later; would prob not have checked it out if not for 2048. the Threes guy's blog post is less annoying than his tweet and subsequent flurry of outraged followers, but still, disrespecting Commander Keen makes me sad, even if it was no SMB - which was hardly the only 2d platformer to predate CK)

anyway, s'pose none of this is worth the mental space. You Have To Win The Game (two posts ago) is cute.

i'm up to the text adventure part. quickest way to my heart :)

i think i won? it tells me i won and there's nothing else to do -- but it seems a bit anticlimactic

"i've won" too. i approve.

holy fucking jesus how is this not the post of the year

Probably been mentioned somewhere already, but Dead Space is free on origin at the mo : https://www.origin.com/en-gb/store/buy/dead-space-ANW.html

jeez that's disturbing

yup that ranks pretty high on the depresso-meter *slash*

CARDINAL QUEST 2

yes, great ^^

http://shimage.net/one-tap-quest/

3rd go = Game Clear, Score 13700

17300 and i got a dragon on the way thru, booyah

very important to get the beer

it can be done without the beer, tho it helps, but if it's in a bad place it's not worth pursuing

19100. i got the beer and a lot of other shit.

17900

don't think it's gonna do anything surprising but dammit

14000 low level victory

beerless win 13600

20800 and no exciting new features so cobblers to this

15700 but I don't think I really got it. Like, I guess it's okay but, eh...

after 20 seconds i beat it with a score of 19,200

i feel empty

20200 with beer

No depth, but a fun spin on Pachinko

it's ogre battle with less restarting

I love when I have the perfect scenario setup for a good run, then I hit the first green thing.

I think I've seen someone do this before?

http://www.molleindustria.org/to-build-a-better-mousetrap/ Cute, not much depth, nice 'idea.'

feel like the message is at odds w the mechanics but, what do i know

So I guess the message is you can't win - you try to make it go with more workers, you can't afford it, and if you try to modernize / improve your tech / use automatons revolution happens anyway

u click the clock, somehow it gets ok

comme irl

you can win tho

i got an 8192

i mean the message it teaches is that if you have capital you are right to think that everyone is against you, that your workers are shiftless idiots who will always demand more, that the public are idiots whose wants are tailor made for programmed redundancy , that you are within your rights to use yr influence with govt. to reduce the rights of the populace. this game is worse at politics than theme park

the dancing mice are cute tho I guess?

I read it in totally the opposite direction? Note that the 'boss' is a mouse until you drag it to the top and it becomes cattish? And if you lose the results are basically utopia, with production automated and all mice well-fed at last? I may have missed the government-influence mechanics though...

i meant putting mice in jail

my claim is that the ending sequence is at odds with the story the mechanics tell, and that since this is, allegedly, a game, the latter is more important

also lol that it is harder to make a reasonable profit and retire than bring about a technocratic socialist utopia, thanks for that guy
