Pixel Cup Soccer - Ultimate Edition
I can see how this game shows quite some good potential for growth. I wasn’t aware that there was a whole Pixel Cup franchise, but it seems my time will be rather appropiately spent with this one as it looks like a considerable better development than the before editions.
Looking forward to those new features!

The good:
-Beautiful pixel graphics
-Plenty of competitions, teams, stadiums and more to choose from
-Good sound design
-Fun gameplay, easy to understand and get into
-Basic and good controls
The bad:
-Kick offs are a bit broken, if you align your kick off kick to the middle and shoot at max power, there’s a 90% chance your shot is going to be a goal, weirdly enough, this seems to work better at some stadiums than on others
-AI for defenders is a bit bad, sometimes all your defenders will go up to attack and leave the defense empty for no reason

Sensible Blood Rugby
An hommage to classic arcade games from the 90s , adapted to the olympic sport of rugby sevens !
Experience Tackles, Rucks, Illegal Tackles
Make your way to the score lines and score many tries!
-up to 4 concurrent players (need joysticks)
-16 teams
-International Competions
The rules are the rugby seven rules, (i.e you can only pass backwards).
The only difference is that in the game you can tackle players without ball :)
For a better experience, it’s recommended to play with joysticks.

16-Bit Soccer
I liked it. The other team scored on me and it did not register a goal but a bit more work on this one and it could be a winner. The Look of the game is nice and retro. A hockey game like this would be nice to see. Thumbs up.

California Games II
The original California Games – first released in 1987 – is considered by many to be one of the best games from the late 8-bit era. Whether it was the original release on the Commodore 64, the slightly-cut-down version that came with the Atari Lynx, or a port from any one of around a dozen other platforms, the unique sun-drenched sports tend to conjure up fond memories from all who played them.
It was inevitable that such a highly-regarded game would be afforded a sequel, and Developer Epyx did not disappoint. By the time the game came out in 1990, 16-bit home computers had become commonplace, meaning that the Amiga, Atari ST and SNES were among the launch platforms.
Now available officially on Steam for the first time, you too can enjoy the five radical and awesome events:
-
Hang-gliding
-
Jet-skiing
-
Snowboarding
-
Bodyboarding
-
Skateboarding
Just like the first game of the series, California Games II is easy to play but hard to master, with plenty of playground arguments about which event was the best.
So get ready to soar like a boss, dust some ice and kick some sweet ollies with this radical and bodacious sequel to one of the most popular games of all time!
From the original manual
_Yo! Dudes and dudettes!
Welcome back to California – land of Fun and Games! Get ready for the ultimate sequel: California Games II. It’s time for “fun in the sun” as you play five totally new events.
First, you’ll try Hang Gliding at San Francisco’s Fort Funston, overlooking the Pacific Ocean, where the most daring hang gliders “hang out”. Next, you’ll take a helicopter ride to the top of Mt. Epyx for a wildly out-of-control Snowboarding run… all the way back down to the beach. Then you’ll take your surfjet out into Monterey Bay for the Santa Cruz Jet Surfing Competition. After that, you’ll compete in the Santa Cruz Bodyboarding Invitational. Finally, you’ll face the challenge of outlaw Skateboarding down the most aggro-cultural California Aqueduct.
Objectives
California Games II is a game for one to eight players. The object of the game is to score well in every event. Points are awarded for each event based upon your ranking among the other competitors. The player with the most points at the end of a competition earns the title of Supreme Dude. Practice to improve your skills in each event, compete with your family and friends, and soon you’ll be the Supreme Dude.
In competition if you break the record for an event, California Games II records your name and the new high score on the Most Excellent Dudes screen._

Go Morse Go! Arcade Edition
I love the art and music and charm of the characters. I also like how you can just jump in and play. I also like the educational aspect because I was making mistakes out of pure haste and I was learning at the same time. Doing that made the game that much more enjoyable. The music is wonderful and I’m bobbing my head along often. Sometimes I just play to hear what comes next and it ramps up nicely when you want to dig into a little competitive spirit. Great presentation- everything flows quickly, the menus aren’t cluttered and explanations are lighting quick which is what games SHOULD be more like because tutorials are BORING!

it’s got cute rabbits with several cute costumes, making it a great tool for learning.
It’s barebones basic though. There’s no listening mode, nor are you ever asked to input words. Just reciting single alphabetic letters one at a time.

The Games: Winter Edition
The Games in Canada. People all around the world have spent months, years and, in the case of the athletes themselves, lifetimes preparing for this momentous event. And now you can be a part of the excitement yourself.
Originally created in 1988, this game brought the excitement of the Winter Games to MSDOS computers.
Created by the masters of sports simulation, Epyx, this game contains 7 winter events to chase the Gold in:
-
Luge
-
Figure Skating
-
Speed Skating
-
Downhill Skiing
-
Slalom
-
Ski Jump
-
Cross Country
No matter which events you choose to compete in, one thing is certain: it’s going to take great practice, patience and plain old hard work to go for the Gold.
But you can do it. And what’s more, you’re going to have a great time trying!
Ultra Space Battle Brawl
It’s a fun game.
Might be short for singleplayer, but you can buy it and play multiplayer via Steam Remote Play Together.
The trailer should tell you all you need to know. Pong but also fighters.
So here’s the classic list:
Good things:
(+)Design and Gameplay = quite interesting. Indie games nowadays do mix-and-match genres. Sometimes they don’t work but this one does.
(+) Music = can’t really describe it, it’s just cool sounding.
Important things to know (Neutral points, i guess):

Ultra Space Battle Brawl is ping pong on steroids with story and personality.
Pros
1. Story mode
2. Versus 1v1 or 2v2
Cons
1. Difficulty is pretty high
2. Not Much of content
3. Raden is “Broken” boss character
4. Lack reward after beating story mode
5. No Online Versus
6. Lacks Modes of play
Overall:
Ultra Space Battle Brawl is a interesting game but lack unlockable and extra modes of play and have no online versus.
The game make for a great versus game with friends or family and have a interesting story behind it but fail the replay part in my opinion why? because after you beat the story with all characters and unlock most thing in gallery there not much there after words and yes you can unlock the boss character for versus but he not playable in the story mode.

80s Volleyball
Simple but fun enough once you figure out the timing and controls.
– Real player with 4.1 hrs in game
Tho it says “inspired by 80’s 8-bit vollyeball games” the visuals and tunes highly resembles specifically that [awful] ‘Great Volleyball’ on Sega Master System. Good thing only the looks were reminiscent from it, this game is a lot better. While it is not recommended for those wanting to rinse the bad taste left by ‘Spike Volleyball’ since this is a more arcade take, it is recommended for any indie sport gamers in general, specially volleyball fans. It’s simple and fun, and has an impressive amount of teams and competitions to choose from (for a volleyball game at least).

Death Ski
Fun skiing game for less than five dollars.

I am shock I managed to finished this game, in first sight I was thinking it is kinda retro horror game, but I was wrong, it is not horror game, as the character know no fair, When got traced by deer, wolf, bear, Yeti , skier with gun, skier with chainsaw (!), he give no shxt, he just care if he missed a red/blue flag, what a another level of nerdiness, he rather die than missing a flag or missing the time limit!
anyway, not a bad game for spending me 2 hrs
