Tagline: Rush through life!
Directions: Do the actions before time’s up! Combination mouse-clicking and key-pressing.
I made Do Stuff for an Armor Games competition in 24 hours, and it has all of the characteristics of a fun game. With more time, I would have added additional actions, but as it is, I still enjoy playing it. Do Stuff is an allegory for life. The moral is: don’t waste your life going through the motions! Do what you love, because you only have one chance.

Tagline: Hack into other worlds and cause unimaginable chaos!
Directions: Kill people! As you prove yourself worthy, the program will unlock more advanced attacks, locations, and enemies. Submit your score when you’re done!
Playing Field 2 is the sequel to God’s Playing Field. It had better graphics and scripting, but was slightly less popular than the original.

Tagline: Escape the collapsing cave using your powers!
Directions: Click and hold the mouse to charge telekinetic bombs, and press and hold the ‘X’ key to levitate the rocks.
Cave Escape 2 was a foray into using bitmap graphics in Flash; it ended up looking pretty good. It was my second game to include a high-score board, and was sponsored by Crazy Monkey Games.

Tagline: Defend the North Pole from the naughty kids!
Directions: Defend the North Pole by whacking the kids with your large candy cane! Then use the candy canes you earn to heal, fortify the pole, and power up Santa.
I programmed this game, and RANTish created the art. It was the first game I ever co-authored as well as the first game to use a high-score board. I used my own high-score board (which was constantly being hacked) until John from Crazy Monkey Games finished the CMG high-score board; then I transferred the high-score board to that. Unfortunately, the new .SWF never propogated through the internet fully, so a handful of people still try to use the old one. I used some fun features and powerups in this game, and as usual, I created the music.

Tagline: Deliver supplies to the rebel base!
Directions: Use the mouse to aim. Aim slightly in front of your target to compensate for their incoming speed.
This was one of my learning experiences for animation, AI, and trigonometry. The code was very basic and I could have saved a lot of time if I’d known more about functions. I submitted the game into Armor Game’s third contest and received a $50 consolation prize.
