JavaScript Games

My games are controlled with the arrow keys for movement and generally Z or Ctrl to fire.
You should be able to toggle sound effects with S and pause / resume the action with P.

[HTML5] Spy Chase

Spy Chase is my nostalgic nod to the classic arcade game of the early 1980s Spy Hunter. You must race through each region collecting flags for speed and avoiding numerous obstacles. Other cars lie in your way and you can bump 'em off the road or shoot at them. A chopper will attempt to drop burning oil on you. Shoot him down ! Watch the radar as you close in on the speeding spy. Good luck, agent. Note: this game is mouse only on desktop machines and touch-screen on mobile.

[HTML5] HyperGunner Mobile version

HyperGunner is a fast paced deep space shoot out as you try and find your way back to Earth. Collect all the bonuses, power up your weapons and leap in to hyper space to get home. The mobile game is so rich in features it plays best on an iPad or powerful smart phone. Touch the screen to move the ship. Good luck !

[HTML5] Wizard Wars Mobile version

Wizards at war. The evil wizard Zoltar is after your magic stars. Make sure you collect enough to defeat him. At the very least get yourself a high score to be proud of ! Hint: grab the gold wizard idol to become temporarily invulnerable ;-)
Best played on an iPhone. You can also use your PC and control with arrow keys or the mouse.

Invaders from Mars

Aliens invading planet earth !!
Aliens that look a lot like 1950's B-Movie aliens that is.
Gunk spraying, dive-bombing, bomb littering badass aliens from the red planet. Use your little frap cannon to wipe them out before it's too late !

Hoth Strike

Homage to the best sci-fi film ever. I loved the walker scenes on Hoth as a kid so I decided to recreate something based on the same setting. Couldn't for the life of me get the AT-ATs animated properly so ditched the idea of an Attack of the Mutant Camels approach in favour of something a bit more like Defender.
I should warn you that this game is b*stard hard. Just like Defender. I mailed the creator of Defender - Eugene Jarvis and asked him if he could play my game. He said he couldn't :) Which was nice.

Celebrity Bloodbath

I decided to create a silly game where you get to hurl stuff like bottles and knives at the Conservatives. If you hit them enough they explode in a beautiful shower of blood. Not so much a game as an exercise in cathartisisismsism. But the game changed. I decided that it was just too much fun killing these fools so I created the means to splatter all famous people. Well the ones that I particularly dislike. I shall be adding more celebrities and more elaborate methods of death in due course.

Castle Adventure

My very first JavaScript arcade game.
A castle is over-run with ghouls and ghastly spirits. The king has ordered you, the castle warlock, to descend in to the lower levels and rid each dungeon of the evil spirits. You have one magic spell good enough for the task but you need to find the glowing energy balls to conjur up enough magic strength. Pretty much like pacman but with a bit more pace.
Note: at the time I was obsessed with the notion of crafting old school Atari style games in JavaScript. Hence the AtariJS banner :-)
