Today's featured Windows holiday download:
Christmas Bound from Blueskied Software. In this game, you play a tennis ball (yeah, I know, but
physics games are in, right?) sent out by Santa to recaputre toys that have been stolen by nasty bugs. You bounce your way through levels trying to recapture presents without touching deadly skulls in what can best be described as a cross between Super Mario Brothers, Asteroids, and Pong. That may not sound promising, but Christmas bound strikes just the right note of nostalgia, cheese, and the surprising difficulty of controlling a tennis ball with the arrow and shift keys.
