Connection Road is a Sokoban-style puzzler created by Japanese developer D.K and his friends, where the objective is to collect all diamonds in a stage so that you may progress to the next. You start out with pulling or pushing blocks out of the way, but things get a bit more complicated with the introduction of pipes a few levels in.

Players can walk in or out of pipes quite easily, and you can even push pipes into the water to form a bridge. Solving all thirty-seven stages might sound like a challenge, but it really only takes about an hour or two to beat the entire game.

You'll know when you have successfully hit a target because it will flash white. There are bonuses to collect, and computer banks to use as temporary cover, or to simply blow up for extra points. There is also a small chance of the computers hiding an additional bonus within.

Donkey Kong Super is an updated remake of the iconic arcade game which also features levels from the unofficial sequel, Donkey Kong 2: Jumpman Returns. The graphics were given a new coat of paint, but everything from the jumps, animations, intermissions, and even barrel speeds are as close as Danny could get them in this remake.

Though the new content had been implemented seamlessly into the game, purists can also download a version that excludes the unofficial levels for a more faithful recreation of the classic. Donkey Kong Super stands out as one of the best Donkey Kong arcade remakes to be released, with controls that are close to perfection and an online rankings table that Wiebe and co. to submit their scores to.

Players have a limited number of bombs to place, although some levels can be cleared without using them all. Each enemy also has a counter that you have to reduce to zero, and players are rewarded with a golden star if they manage to defeat all creatures without decimating any of them into ashes.

Dream Cherry is a NES-style platformer in which you play as Cherryboy, a cherry-headed hero who has to drive back the nightmarish creatures that seek to destroy everything in the realm of the Dream World. You can jump on or throw star at enemies to defeat them, although the latter method is preferable because some creatures will hurt you when you try to step on them.

One thing to take note of is that you have to do running jumps to clear most of the walls or obstacles that you come across in the game. If Cherryboy is in a stationary position before attempting a jump, the height of the leap will be much lower than when he is in motion.

Man Enough is a collaborative project by Daniel Remar and Erik Sjöstrand, where you have to play four minigames at the same time while a catchy tune is repeated in the background. There are only three buttons to use, and every time you press or hold a button some kind of action will happen in every minigame window.

The first game is a straight-up vertical shooter, while the second is a dating sim with a suprise ending if you answer all of the questions correctly. The third window is a simple coin-collecting task, while the fourth involves assisting a shirtless man recover the golden Petri statue head. Holding the space key causes platforms to appear and bridge all gaps, and pressing the left or right cursor key instructs the man to move in the desired direction.

Mirage is a Unity-based action game in which you control a swarm of glass, out to explore a world filled with autumn leaves, branches, and plenty of sand. You take damage when colliding with a wall, but health can be restored by blasting the green crystals that you will encounter several times during your journey. There is a healthy amount of checkpoints too, and any enemies previously defeated will stay down even after you've respawned some distance away.

The entire game is basically just one long level capped by a boss fight, and can be beaten in about fifteen minutes or so.

Sync Simple is a tunnel shooter that comes with a basic level progression system, boss fights, and upgrades tied to your ship's capability to take damage. The level changes whenever you eliminate twenty-four aliens in the current area, and though the game starts out easy the enemies will eventually start to weave around and shoot back at you with their own weapons.

There are collectibles that upgrade your firepower, but if you get hit the guns will be weakened gradually until you're left with a single shot weapon. A collision with an invader or their projectile while in this state, and the ship explodes thus ending your mission abruptly.

Up to three power-up items can be amassed, and you will definitely need to hoard as many as you can get your hands on if you plan to survive longer than a minute on one life.
