Manic Miner
Manic Miner is a faithful remake of the old school classic of the same name originally written for the ZX Spectrum by Matthew Smith and released by Bug-Byte in 1983. It is the first game in the Miner Willy series and among the pioneers of the platform game genre. The original game itself was inspired by the Atari 800 game Miner 2049er.
JetPac
The classic ZX Spectrum game converted to Flash .
Jetman has crash-landed on a distant planet, with ledges suspended in mid-air and populated by various nasties, and he must escape and find his way home.
Your first task is to retrieve each of the three parts of his spaceship, in order, and carry them over the base part. After this, you must collect enough fuel to be able to fly away, again by picking it up and dropping it over the ship (you don’t have to actually make contact with the ship in doing this). Once you’ve filled the ship up, you can fly on to the next level, in which you must again refuel.
Each level contains various bad guys, with different attack patterns; you have a lazer to shoot them for points, and must avoid contact with them.
El’s Quest
It looks like the game is called El’s Quest, but it’s actually called point collecting. Burn a circle trying to squash your attempt at triumph? Get points. Use your tri-beam to shoot a falling bomb? Get points. Catch a gem falling from the sky? Oh yeah you get points. Are you still alive as death approaches towards you from every corner at a gradually increasing pace? Yeah you’re so accumulating points.
This game is very much made in the spirit of old Gameboy games, their lack of color, and beeps for music. But unlike those old games rather then telling your friends about your awesome score and them not believing you… we have leaderboards! Not only can you prove your score but show just how much better you are at a video game. Thats what really matters.
