Jetpack Jackass is a Flash game by Adult Swim. The object is to get your character, Sam, to the moon so that he can prove his love to Stacy, who thinks he's just an idiot. He blasts off with a jetpack, and in order for him to go higher, you must aim him toward the various objects in the sky that he can bounce up from. Some objects, such as falling buildings or satellites, give Sam a bigger boost ...

Ed note: please welcome Erez Zukerman to the Download Squad team! Though he's a technical writer and software developer, he decided to go with a nice, relaxing Time Waster for his first post on DS. Who are we to argue? Enjoy! This is not much of a time-waster, but only in the sense that it doesn't take much time to play. However, MicroSports is intense - and half the fun is trying to figure ...

Ah, Libra - the zodialogical symbol of balance. And in Libra the game, that's precisely what you're out to achieve! Each level presents you with an array of blocks with different Tetris-inspired shapes. They're also made of different materials, which gives them different weights. You can never exceed the maximum weight difference indicated on the scale. If you do, it's simply a matter of ...

Everybody loves a good Time Waster. Everybody loves ninjas. And everyone loves solving mathematical equations, right? Number Ninjas is all this goodness rolled up into one slick little Flash game! You play the number one, armed with a ninja's favorite projectiles: throwing stars. And by "stars" I mean +, -, /, and *. To complete a level, you've got to defeat enemy numerals using the correct ...

Something about the frenzied action of Skyfyre made me wish I had Dragonforce blasting out my Altec Lansing three-piece. Somehow I don't think that would fly here at my day job... If you're lucky enough to be at home (or have a nice set of headphones, though), fire up some fast-paced tunes and get your turrets ready for aerial combat. This challenging and addictive side scroller is a perfect ...

Use Boxmen is a Flash game that requires you to solve each level by reaching the goal, which is a box that your Boxman must collect. You can run and jump like in most games like this, but your Boxman has an additional ability: he's able to spawn clones of himself which will continue to do whatever it is he's doing at the moment the clone is spawned. So, if your Boxman is standing still, the clone ...

Graphics are Everything is a tongue-in-cheek name for a game that is anything but fancy graphically. The game involves bare-bones wireframe shapes on a plain white screen. You control a circle, and can make it bounce by clicking and dragging it in a direction. Releasing the mouse will send the ball flying in the direction of the cursor. The goal of the game is to collect certain shapes while ...

Minim is a puzzle game where your goal is to deconstruct molecules until they disappear. This is done by sequentially clicking any two nodes of the same number that are linked by a single strand. The tutorial levels are deceptively simple, showing the mechanics of the games, but the puzzles become very difficult very fast. Luckily, the game is rendered in 3D, and allows you to freely rotate the ...

Mirror's Edge is a successful 3D first-person platformer where players take control of Faith, a runner who's job is to transmit messages without garnering the ire of government surveillance. If you're not familiar with the franchise, it doesn't really matter; Mirror's Edge 2D is still a fantastic 2D flash game based on Mirror's Edge. In the 2D version, you control Faith by using keyboard keys to ...

Boomstick is a Flash game where you move a stick-figure person left and right, and aim/fire a boomstick (gun). The object is to shoot the "bad guys," which are really just basic shapes that fly through the screen at varying paces. When you hit the bad guys, debris falls like a candy from a piñata, and collecting this debris gives you more ammo to continue the cycle. There are two powerups ...

Grid16 is a unique combination of mini games for gamers with short attention spans (like us). You start out with a grid of 16 squares, each with its own game. All you need are your arrow keys and good reflexes as the game's "camera" moves from mini game to mini game. For instance, you may start out playing a Brickout-type mini game for a few seconds, then switch to a game where you must move a ...

In Filler your goal is to fill 2/3 of the game board with "filler balls." Balls can be created by clicking anywhere on the board and their size is determined by how long you hold down the button on your mouse. The longer the you hold down the button, the bigger the filler ball. The game has other balls bouncing around the screen which for the purpose of this explanation we'll call "bouncing ...

We played this engineering game for the first time almost a week ago, and have yet to make it past level one. Now we've decided to ask our dear readers to help us out on beating this thing so we can get back to more important things like blogging. The idea behind the game is fairly simple. You're given a little island. There are eight different types of engineering you can bring to the island and ...

Man, oh man. If ever there were a time waster with a name that could evoke innuendo and double-entendre, it's one called Balls. It's excruciatingly difficult not to comment about playing with them or that this game scratches a real itch. Staying strong, we'll steer well clear of commentary like that. Balls is a very simple game in which you play the part of a little grey ball, trying to touch a ...

Momentum Missle Mayhem is a Flash-based arcade shooter with a funky physics concept and great action. You play the part of the Gravity Launcher, which is basically a fixed structure. You can shoot out different projectiles in a slingshot fashion, and hit the attacking machines and either damage them, or push them around. The goal is to defend the left side of the screen from the waves of attackers ...
