Grid Wars 2 is a space shooter arcade game.

Grid Wars2 is basically a PC version of the popular Xbox 360 game, Geometry Wars. Made by Mark Incitti, this release features less special effects compared to the original but also new controls to cater for players who do not own a dual analog joypad.

Your small ship sits in a one-screen grid and vectorized enemies spawn to attack. Use your any-directional gun to stay alive while you rake in points. Along the way a few power-ups will give you a hand, and theres always the emergency screen-clearing bomb you can unleash.

The hybrid option control allows a player to use both mouse and keyboard for ship movement as well as aiming their shots.

Invasion 3D is a fun and addictive 3D arcade game!
The idea for Invasion 3D came during the summer of 2004, when I was working in New Jersey. I had been playing a lot of old arcade games on the MAME arcade emulator.
I had fun playing the original Taito Space Invaders game, but I was frustrated with the inability to shoot more than a single bullet at once with this game. I decided it would be fun to play a modern, 3-D version of Space Invaders with some serious weapons which would allow for massive alien destruction, as it should be.
At first I thought of using my Jax3D engine to render this game, but in the end I decided to learn something new and use OpenGL. I got started by looking at NeHes OpenGL Tutorials and wrote this game in my spare time during April and May of 2005.
Main features:
- Realistic physics simulation
- Challenging and fun gameplay
- Stunning visual effects
- Multiple weapons
- Massive Destruction
- Hidden bonuses
- 20 Waves with over 2,000 invaders
- Both Windows and Linux versions
- Free to Distribute to Anyone!
