Attack of Mutant Camels   
"Attack of the Mutant Camels" which is the full game title, is a remake of this pivotal game! It's based on Jeff Minter's shooter classic from the 80's. You have to stop the super-camels as they march across the landscape. Use your weapons to kill the terrifying camels. It's a lot of fun to play in combination with nostalgia. This remake is actually an improvement of its original. Note: To start the game press P and to quit press ESC.

Chompster
An excellent 3-dimensional pacman game with rendered graphics. More than 60 different mazes to play! NOTE: We have the original version 0.90 without advertisement. As far as we know, GameHippo.com is the only site with this rare original copy of Chompster. If you look on other game sites you will most likely find the adware version (by www.debitexpress.com). This game is also known as Chompster 3D.

Deep Space Pong
Deep Space Pong is a one-person paddle game in a 3D world. You can even enhance that 3D feeling by selecting a moving 3D viewing camera perspective during the play. Although this makes it harder to aim at the ball. The game has 3 difficult levels (Novice, Advanced, and Pong Lord). If you want to rack up points fast, then select playmode Pong Lord and the stationary camera view. For each 1000 points you get an extra ball. I think Deep Space Pong is a pretty nifty adaptation of the classic 2D pong arcade game from the 80's. I applaud the unique game concept.

Deli Dash 
If you took a copy of the Atari 2600 classic Pressure Cooker and threw it in a blender for a few minutes with a copy of Tetris, you'd get something very similar to Deli Dash.
Just another block-and-pit puzzle game at first glance, Deli Dash challenges the usual convention of this genre, being "control the falling block(s) and put them somewhere nice." This wasn't good enough for the designers of Deli Dash, so they opted to allow you to control the pieces that are already in place, rather than the ones that are falling. It works very well.
Once you get past the shock of this unusual notion, you'll find a very pleasing puzzle game. The playfield is made up of four plates sitting in the bottom of a pit. You control a stereotypical Italian chef standing below the plates, who has but one ability: to switch two adjacent plates. Bits of sandwich fall into the pit two at a time, and you must shuffle the plates around to make the ingredients fall where you want them to.
The goal here is to make sandwiches. These sandwiches are often irrational in terms of ingredients, but who cares. The ingredients thrown your way include the usual sandwich garnishes, lettuce, tomato, bacon, cheese, etc... The most critical pieces however, are the top and bottom buns. The strategy is to cram as many toppings as possible on to a bottom bun, and then clear the whole sandwich with the top bun. Any top bun that lands on a stack that doesn't have a corresponding bottom bun helpfully vanishes. In addition, if an ingredient falls onto another of its kind, they will both vanish. This fact is important to remember as you struggle to keep the growing pile of food under control.
The game also features a mission mode, which has you trying to accomplish a series of specific tasks. These range from scoring a certain number of points within a time limit, to making a number of specific sandwiches, to even more exotic challenges. The mission mode is great fun, and even unlocks secrets at certain levels.
The token split screen two player mode is also available. Here you can play toward one of several goals, and can even heap trouble on your opponent by making large sandwiches. One thing that bothered me about this mode was that when playing with no specified goal, the first player that fills the screen loses, despite having more points than their slower opponent. This just seems wrong. The game also features network play, but I was unable to test it.
Deli Dash seems like a great package, but there's one glaring problem that I must point out, and that's the menu interface. Upon reaching the title screen, you are told to press the start key, which happens to be the space bar. OK, no problem. However, from here on out, the space bar makes no menu choices of any kind, and instead this function is taken over by your two buttons, labeled simply "Action1" and "Action2." The problem is this: the game saves your button settings. This means that if someone decides to play this while I'm gone and changes the keys, the next time I play I have to figure out what keys they were using just so I can select the menu option to configure the controls. The programmers should've made the Enter key the global selector and left it at that. Furthermore, pausing the game is accomplished by pressing "Action2." The first time I wanted to pause the game, it took me about three minutes to figure out how to it. The last thing I expected was that one of my "Action" keys would fulfill the task. This is needlessly confusing.
Aside from the interface issues and some quirky two player rules, there's really not much negative to be said about Deli Dash. If you enjoy puzzle games, I highly recommend this title. If you don't, it probably won't change your mind, but try it anyway.
Note: The lack of a kid-safe rating is due to the online high-score list that is displayed during the game. There were some extremely vulgar names up there, play at your own risk.
