In Barrage your goal is to kill and destroy as many targets as possible within 3 minutes. You control a gun which may fire either small or large grenades by ''point-and-click''. The game is a one-week by-product of writing a little particle system which required a testing platform but it is fun to play in between.

This game is based loosely on the arcade classic of the late 70's called "Ripoff".
The idea is simply to protect your barrels from the enemy tanks.
Shoot them, run into them, get them to shoot each other -- it doesn't matter, just protect your barrels from them.

"For people who enjoy swearing at their computer, Bastet (short for Bastard Tetris) is an attractive alternative to Microsoft Word." (taken from http://hublog.hubmed.org)

Have you ever thought Tetris(R) was evil because it wouldn't send you that straight "I" brick you needed in order to clear four rows at the same time? Well Tetris(R) probably isn't evil, but Bastet certainly is. >:-) Bastet stands for "bastard tetris", and is a simple ncurses-based Tetris(R) clone for Linux. Unlike normal Tetris(R), however, Bastet does not choose your next brick at random. Instead, Bastet uses a special algorithm designed to choose the worst brick possible. As you can imagine, playing Bastet can be a very frustrating experience!
