Squatter House

Mon, 01 Nov 2004 22:43:36 -0500

The Game:

Many people in the world could use some rest and relaxation. One day, one of these people receives a letter informing them that they have won a free vacation home from a real estate sweepstakes. The person arrives at their new vacation home, eager for a calming experience, only to find a squatter has taken up residence! You can play as the squatter or the rightful owner of the home, who will chase the squatter. If you are the chaser, you must chase and catch the squatter so you can kick him out and finally relax. If you choose to be the squatter, you will win if you can "lay claim" to your territory, by getting to enough waypoints in the house. In the game, you will choose a character and a house plan (maze), and your opponent will do the same. Each player is confined by the house plan they choose, but your opponent doesn't have to choose the same house plan as you. This means that while you are bound by the walls in your house plan, the other player may be able to disregard some of those walls! This game is multiplayer only, over a network. Featured characters include Lil John, Howard Dean, Sexy Grandpa, and more!

Features:

Crisis Wolverine: Insurrection Green

Thu, 03 Apr 2003 12:24:22 -0500

Crisis Wolverine: Insurrection Green is the top down RPG that took this campus by storm. It is best described as Final Fantasy here on the U of M campus. This highly addictive, simplistic four hour game was... well... pure genius. The hard work really paid off and the development team can happily boast several thousand downloads.

Crisis Wolverine begins with the main character finding himself stranded on the campus of U of M during spring break. He soon uncovers MSU's dastardly plans to overtake the campus and must find it within himself to stop it. Those he encounters along the way will shape his destiny, and the destiny of the campus itself.

Wolverine Soft Bomberman

Wed, 31 Dec 1969 19:00:00 -0500

Wsoft Bomberman is a simple 2D clone of the Super Bomberman games on SNES. The goals behind this game were to create a solid game engine that could be used for other 2D tile based games, and to help game development beginners to get a handle for things. We would then add network support and possibly AI controlled bombermen.
