Ballistics 1.0 Demo
Ballistics is the fastest racing game ever. more>>
The year is 2090, and humankind has become a high tech society. Diseases are gone, and almost everyone lives a comfortable and secure life. The world is simply a stable place. But when times are calm and money is plentiful, people always start to search for entertainment to fill their everyday lives with. Extreme sports have developed and Ballistics is one of the biggest. You are one of the contenders. You are a Ballistics Pilot, ready to throw yourself headlong into the most awesome speed sensation in the world!
The Ballistics races evolved from the Formula One races. The Ballistics pilots are trained from their teens and, using electronic enhancers, their reflexes are much faster than any ordinary human. Wearing G-suits like fighter pilots, they set out to race in these insane speed fests in their hunt for fame and fortune.
Not only do you race through high tech scenarios, as a pro league pilot you get to travel the world and compete with other daredevils in the most spectacular tracks ever built. Rushing through settings such as the Belize jungle, the Grand Canyon, and the city center of future Houston, you are in for some serious action and challenges. The tracks are built using tunnels that allow a racing surface that is curved and twisted in any direction.
The Pilots who race in these tunnels are all using Speeders. Speeders are high tech hover bikes with a magnetic repel unit keeping them floating in the air when inside the track. To be able to keep the Speeders floating, a magnetic field has been generated close to the track walls. This magnetic field, called the MF by some, will keep the Speeder in the air, or if the pilot chooses to, it will keep the Speeder attached just a few millimeters from the wall.
Being a Speeder pilot has its pros and cons. The pros include fame and good old hard cash for your performance. The cons being high speed impacts with concrete walls. Each race pays a fortune, and you certainly deserve it for throwing yourself into this furious racing grind.
This product is due to be released on May 31, 2007.

You get two points for every square youve managed to clear at the end of the game the percent of the field left uncleared is counted down. This value is shown on the indicator under the playing field. The new level begins. At the end of it the percent of the squares left on a board is added to the value on indicator. When indicator reaches 100%, the game is over. The goal is to go through as many levels as possible.
ARCADE
In this game you have to remove like-colored blocks that are in clusters so that they couldnt fill the board to the top. Removing big blocks will bring you more points. Youll get extra bonus if you remove extremely big blocks.
To move to the next level you should cope with a certain number of lines that will be added to the board.The speed of the game grows as you move from one level to another.
Bombs that sometimes appear on the board will help you to cope with a level: a click on a bomb of certain color will blow up all the squares of the same color. Clicking on a black bomb will blow up all the squares around it.
Bonuses:
