Hard Hat: The Rebellion   
Hard Hat: The Rebellion like Megabot before it, is a side-scrolling platform-shooter which basically takes the gameplay from classic Capcom series Megaman and brings it to PC, while at the same time being different enough to stand alone as their own games. Well, perhaps the last statement only applies to Megabot, as Hard Hat is a game that is set entirley in the Megaman universe.
The plot basically centres around your character Hard Hat, a servant to the evil Dr Wiley, turning traitor and joing with the good guys to defeat his former master. Nothing new here.
Graphics-wise, theres not a great need to say much. The various sprites are well done, and look good, however backgrounds, while occasionally animated, still feel like they hark back to the days of the original NES console, often looking pretty dated.
Musically, it's a MIDI-lovers paradise, the bleeping tunes taking you back to the very early 90's, and effects are the cheerful bleeps and bloops of the original Nintendo clasics. This is probably my only major gripe with the game, as even though the authour has attempted to stick closely to the original Megaman, some more modern music would have given it just that little bit extra.
Gameplay is like digging around in your garage/attic/basement and finding that old console you thought you'd lost. Its the classic formula of getting from point A to point B, while jumping gaps, collecting powerups, and blowing up baddies. And for a concept thats about as old as I am, its still a load of fun. And unlike so many tributes (Sonic games in particular) Hard Hat actually plays just as well as its inspiration, which is a definate plus. However, potential downloaders beware, Hard Hat is very hard. Very, very hard. As in the original series, you have no structured levels and can beat them in any order you like, but completing the levels in the "right" order gives you a power-up which makes the other levels easier/possible. So what this boils down to is a process of trial and error as you try out different levels until you find the one thats slightly less difficult then the rest. However, all of the levels are challenging, so those who hate dieing over and over again should probably look elsewhere.
Overall, if you love old-school platforming fun, grab Hard Hat right away, but if you're the sort of person who refuses to touch 2D with a 20-foot pole, you'd best stay away.
Note: Due to the lack of nervous-systems in robots, Hard Hat is completely Kid-Safe.

Ignac
Ignac is a game for all ages. It's about this little kid who doesn't like to do his math homework. Instead he wants to sneak out the house. Can you help him? This game is monumental in terms of its cartoon animations and background graphic! It's just awesome. The gameplay is easy and follows the tradition of an adventure game. You point and click at objects that you will need to solve the quest of finding your way out. The author calls Ignac a demo game and I asked him why. He said only for the sole reason that the game is somewhat short. Despite that, it's still not trivial to solve.

Janitor Dan the Spaceman
Janitor Dan is an original and fun game involving battling space pirates, and cleaning space stations.
Janitor Dan is mostly about searching for and eliminating filth inside of labrynthine space stations. You must wield a plunger, vaccum, squegee, and a vaporising mouse-trap to accomplish this.
The controls are very simple, yet effective. The arrow keys, ctrl, and spacebar are all that is required.
There are all sorts of enemies, like space lizards, robotic bombs, and other things packed into this humorous game.
The graphics are cartoony, yet proffesional. I liked them alot.
The sound is just right for what is going on. Vaccums, lasers, explosions, it's all there.
This is a great game not to be missed.

Jetz Fusion
Jetz Fusion is the sequel to highly acclaimed Jetz Rampage 2. In case you don't know what the Jetz series is, I'll fill you in. It's basically like Grand Theft Auto, but instead of hijacking cars to complete objectives, you have jetpack to assist you. You'll help a bunch of shady criminals to smuggle drugs, kill people, and do weird, random things. Or, you can just terrorize people. Cut their heads off with a chainsaw, shoot a billboard to make it come toppling down upon them, set fire to a building, etc.
Jetz Fusion improves upon its prequel in many ways. As you progress through the game, you'll get more weapons and have access to more cities. As in Grand Theft Auto, the police also will attack with greater force as you cause more destruction. There are better graphics and more animations for buildings being destroyed. The mission objectives are more varied, as well. You'll ride a motorcycle, collect coins with a malfunctioning Jetpack, and do many more things that you couldn't do in Jetz Rampage 2. My only gripe is that it's so frustrating to die after getting so far in a level. Your character is pretty tough, but once he's dead, he's dead for good!
Jetz Fusion is a great game, not far from perfection, but I strongly caution you, THIS GAME IS NOT FOR CHILDREN!! There's a bunch of blood, uncensored swearing, and some of the mission objectives are just plain sick! One guy wants you to kill his grandma! So, if you're not the sensetive type, download this now. Otherwise you may be offended by all the adult content.

Kidmatch
This concentration game is great for kids. There are six pictures to match, each with its own sound effect. Also, if you like a picture, you can zoom in on it after you turn it over.
