Pendulumeca - Today's Time Waster
by Jordan Running May 11th 2006 at 1:25PM
Pendulumeca is my kind of Flash game: Easy to learn, tricky to play, and absolutely addicting. The goal is to move a little mech as far as you can across a field of spikes. This is no platformer, though: Your only means of locomotion is a rope you shoot out like Spiderman to swing from the ceiling, and once you start there's no rest and no turning back. If you hit a gap in the ceiling or fire too long a rope, you may crash into the spikes below. You progress to a new level after swinging 500 meters (but like I said, there's no rest, not even between levels), and the higher your level the larger and more frequent the gaps in the ceiling become. Pendulumeca is a great coffee break game but beware, it's hard to stop playing. As usual, post your high scores in the comments![Thanks, Phi!]
With Halloween fast approaching, it's a great time to get in some practice defending your territory against zombies. In Graveyard Shift, you take aim at zombies and other creepy-crawlies, blasting them into splatters of cartoony green guts. It's a casual first-person shooter, and it's very easy to get the hang of - use the mouse to aim, click to fire. Graveyard Shift has at least 15 levels, and it might even have some secret stages I haven't unlocked yet.
They key to getting good at Graveyard Shift is learning to use ...

The 'dude' ended up staying at the same height for an infinite ammount of time like it had an error in the game or something. Here's 21,000+ m after 20 minutes or so. The levels quit going up after 10!

Yeah this is nice. 426 after 3 retries, I would continue in the spirit of competition but that "21,000+ " guy really spoiled the fun :(.
