How to play Stickman Freeride? Your adrenaline, tires, frame, suspension, and brakes can all be upgraded, some of them multiple times. There are 2 complete bike upgrades as well. All of these upgrades will help you perform better and faster, enabling you to compete in the tougher courses. Receiving a silver or gold medal might not even be possible in some of the more difficult courses without upgrading.

It’s fairly easy to see how bike upgrades can help you. As for adrenaline, it increases as you ride through the course, and jumps up quicker when you do tricks. When adrenaline is at its highest, your speed increases. If you crash, your adrenaline level drops to zero. Upgrading adrenaline means that riding and doing tricks increases your adrenaline level faster. Once your adrenaline level peaks, you have to continue to do tricks to maintain it, or it will slowly drop back down to zero.

The great thing about Stickman Freeride is that you can continue playing for hours on end and still not feel like you’re doing the same thing over and over again. There is plenty of variation between the different courses, and always room for improvement. Physical reactions to the course environment, laws of physics, and player controls aren’t completely realistic, but they come close, especially when compared to some other online BMX games. Combining many levels and multiple objectives gives you plenty to strive for.

Enjoy playing Stickman Freeride!

TU 46

TU 46 is a sequel to the game TU 95 from the flash game maker, Armor Games. The game simulates the experience of flying a 1970s aircraft. In the game you get to fly brand new passenger aircraft out of the city of Tupolev. You deliver your passengers from Tupolev to six different countries. Along the way it is possible to get upgrades improving your planes’ stability.

The controls of the TU-46  are fairly complex, when compared to the typical flash game that most players are used to. The up and down buttons control acceleration of the plane. The plane banks left or right with the left and right buttons. The engines of the plane start up with a push of the I key (for initialization). The G key allows you to put the landing gears up or down. A push of the F key changes the position of the flaps.

Space Bar will turn the plane 180 degrees, allowing you to fly back the way you came. The E key shuts off the engines (E for Extinguishes). If a flight is long and you are getting bored, you can push the Z key to speed up the game play by a factor of 16. The M key will mute the game sounds. Finally, the P key pauses the game. As you can see, there are numerous controls to get a handle on. However, as complex as it may seem within a few missions the controls will become second nature for most players.

Some of the controls are more important to get a handle on than others. The flap key is the most important key to remember, because having it in the incorrect position can cause a crash on both landing and takeoff. Also, don’t forget to hit the G key after takeoff. Flying with thee landing gear down will make the plane much more difficult to control.

The game is lot of fun to play. However, it is not the kind of game that players can sit down and play when they have a few free minutes. This game is complex and time-consuming. That makes it very interesting, but it also means that you will need to commit a substantial chunk of time to play it. Figure on spending at least an hour or two on playing the game.

Work on perfecting landings and takeoffs, as they are the challenging parts of the game. Master them, and you will be well on your way to creating your airline empire.

Enjoy!

Bubble Struggle 3

Als Pausenfüller mit Suchtfaktor könnte man das Mini-Game Bubble Struggle 3 beschreiben. Das mittlerweile vierte Spiel der Serie setzt konsequent das Prinzip der Vorgänger um und bringt noch einige Verbesserungen mit sich.

Der Spieler übernimmt die Rolle eines auf cool machenden Teufels. Allein der ist schon das Spiel wert. Seine Aufgabe ist sehr einfach: Blasen abschießen und nicht von ihnen getroffen werden. Eine Hintergrundgeschichte gibt es also nicht und das Spielprinzip klingt sehr einfach. Man könnte daher meinen, es ist ein einfaches Spiel. Aber nix da. Bubble Struggle 3 ist leicht zu verstehen und unmöglich zu meistern.

Die Steuerung ist ebenfalls simpel. Mit den Pfeiltasten wird die Richtung angegeben, mit der Leertaste wird geschossen. Mag das am Anfang noch recht einfach erscheinen, den Blasen ausweichen und dann feuern wird es mit jedem Level immer schwerer. Zum Glück hat man einige Leben auf Vorrat. Die wird man auch brauchen, denn die Blasen springen und hüpfen absolut unberechenbar. Selbst wenn man dasselbe Level noch einmal spielen, ist der Bewegungsablauf ein vollkommen anderer. So ist man irgendwann nur noch damit beschäftigt auszuweichen und bekommt das Drumherum des Spiels gar nicht mehr mit.

Zum Glück kann man einige Hilfsmittel frei schalten, die in schwierigen Situationen einem das virtuelle Leben retten können. Besonders nützlich ist das Dynamit. Man wirft es in einen Schwarm von Blasen und schon hat wieder etwas Luft zum atmen. Extra Leben geben einem zusätzliche Chancen und Ikonen können entweder die eigene Spielfigur schneller oder die Blasen langsamer machen. Wer Geschickt ist, kann auch das Level-Design zu seinem Vorteil nutzen und Verstecke finden oder die Blasen an Orte schicken, wo sie sich selbst zerstören.

Doch egal, wie geschickt man ist, irgendwann erwischt es einen immer. Und dann will man nur eines: Gleich noch einmal spielen. Immer weiter geht es, auf der Jagd nach dem höchsten Highscore.

Wem der Kampf gegen die Blasen allein keinen Spaß mehr macht, der kann den 2P Modus einsetzen und mit einem Mitspieler sein Glück versuchen. Vielleicht bringt da ja mehr Chancen.

Earn To Die

Earn to Die is not a thinking man’s game, but only a fool would hold that against it. The game is all about the visceral delight of smashing zombies with rocket powered cars and trucks.

The game follows a simple story: Stuck in a Mad Max style wasteland, you are given a car and a small budget to buy parts and told to get to a helicopter. Every attempt gets you a little farther as you earn money by smashing zombies and making good distance and then use that money to buy upgrades.

It’s a simple game, it’s not very complex, there’s not a ton of challenge, but by the end of the playthrough, you’ll be taking a rocket powered, machine gun loaded, big wheel, super charged semi truck and smashing it into zombies head first, flying it over hills and canyons and come screaming to a halt at the helicopter at the end of the level satisfied and ready for more.

Thankfully there’s challenge mode, which gives you three tries and ranks you on how far you get.

Earn to Die may not be the most complicated or sophisticated game, it may not be the most clever, but it’s a lot of fun. You hold the up button, you lean the truck left or right to get over rocks and hills, and you smash through the walking dead and crates.

Earn to Die - It’s simple, it’s dumb, and it’s a whole lot of fun presented by NotDoppler..

If there’s any real criticism to be made about the game, it’s that it’s almost too complicated with the leveling up system and everything. A game like this could probably be just as fun if it were just the zombie smashing part. Perhaps an endless looping level that just lets you keep smashing deadites until you get bored. In any event, for what it is, Earn to Die is one of those brilliantly addictive wastes of time that’s sure to get you in trouble at work, so play at your own risk, knowing full well that you might not be able to stop once you get started. For such a simple game, it’s tremendously addictive.

Handless Millionaire

Handless Millionaire is a flash game found on www.silvergames.com. In this new game, the player must attempt to grab money without getting their hand chopped off by a guillotine. There are fourteen levels the player must play through to reach the end, totaling half a million dollars of grabbed money.

The first level starts off slow, with the guillotine only coming down once every few seconds. After the player survives this level with all of their digits intact, they will notice that level two’s guillotine comes down in two quick motions and then it pauses. The guillotine becomes faster with each pattern as well, so speedy mouse movements are key to keeping one’s hand in this game. Each level has a different pattern to it, and if the player can recognize the pattern, the money is theirs!

The graphics in this game are silly, and if the player gets their hand caught in the guillotine there is a fair amount of blood. Once the player loses the game, the background shows someone with bandaged stumps and the player can send their scores to the scoreboard if they so wish.

Handless Millionaire is a new fun flash game that challenges players in their ability to be quick with their mouse, and able to spot patterns in the game.
