Rather late to the party, I found out via a post on iPioneer that Gazerk – a search engine for video games – has launched in beta form.

It seems to work, too – looking for “Indy Heat”, an early 90’s Amiga game in the Supersprint mould, I got a bunch of good results for what is a little known title that I absolutely loved. Gazerk could prove to be very useful indeed. 😀

Here’s a natty little flash game I’ve been playing by the name of Gimme Friction Baby.

You fire the balls and once they come to rest they expand to fill the space around them. Then you use subsequent balls to try and hit the previous balls three times – at wich point they break apart and vacate the space they occupied. What makes it difficult is aiming the gun – it constantly sweeps back and forth by itself, so it’s easy to misjudge the most trivial of shots.

Still, it’s fun in a mininmalist kind of way, and the ambient music is cool, too. 🙂
