We are opening King of Freeware - Spring '08

Post by lgb »

Following the time honored custom. This year we will adopt a special rule of competition between teams of 3 shooters. That's all...[T]

Is anyone up for a 3-person-a-team, 5 game freeware fest?

=Quick Rules=
~3 person teams, you can ask someone to join your team as long as you both/all agree to it.
~5 games, once a week, starting on Mondays at GMT 00:00.
~All freeware games. I say "freeware" because freeware /= doujin.

The good thing about this is that you can check Shoot The Core's PC database for most (if not all) of the games that are elligible for play. I may even put in a demo. Yes, that means Touhou is elligible. But you're playing on Lunatic. Maybe Hard.

Nomltest is a good example. Actually, shield use in that game is completely unlimited, and on my best run I used it over 4,000 times. I haven't been playing much shmups lately though.

Remember that doujin games aren't neccesarily "free". Doujin simply means "homebrew" or "indy", as in small team, unless we're all ignorant and totally wrong.

Try looking up "WARNING FOREVER". I'll bet you could get something, it's free, and it's doujin too.
