Hammertime in 60 Seconds: MC Hammer stars in this Time Waster

Hammertime in 60 Seconds is a bizarre collection of mini-games starring the most legit of all 1990s pop culture icons, MC Hammer. In one frantic minute, you try to guide Hammer through a few different screens, battling various opponents and racking up a high score. If you've ever wanted to play as MC Hammer in a golf cart, stomping on Hummers, now's your chance.

Level one involves collecting hammers that drift around the screen, and only takes up 14 seconds of the game. Level two is the aforementioned Hummer stomp, which is generally pretty easy, except that - unlike the real Hammer - the Hammer in the game isn't the smoothest mover. In fact, his jumps are a bit clunky. Getting hit by the SUVs wastes your precious seconds and deducts points.

The third level is where you can really rack up your score: Hammer flies a plane and engages enemy ships in dogfight. You can shoot unlimited hammers at very high speed, so this where you want keep shooting constantly. Hammer's hot minute finishes up with a surprise boss who attacks with a laser beam from the mouth. It's not the best-made game ever, but it's worth at least minute of your time.

Level Up! A platform-hopping RPG Time-Waster

I don't know if this is a labor of love or merely the brainchild of four very gifted games designers, but Level Up is a really weird mash-up of gaming elements that you have probably never seen in a Flash game before. Let's start with the premise itself: Groundhog Day meets Memento. The game experience revolves around 'days': you explore the world and the clock slowly ticks towards the evening. You bounce around picking up gems and talking to the denizens of 'Level Upland'. Eventually you feel tired and head back to ...
