Pixel Blaster

In this game you aim with the mouse and fly with the keyboard. It starts out simple but gets hairy really quickly. It reminds me a lot of the old PC platformer Abuse, which I loved.

Shave Everywhere

This guy loves talking about grooming. It's a promotional website for an electric body hair shaver but that doesn't mean that it's not funny. This dude gets bleeped a little bit but every time that happens his point is illustrated with fruit. Makes me feel a little hairy. Once again Zensho provided the link.

Man in the Dark

This is a really simple site but it's so cool. It's also been around for a while, but I just don't care. It's a brilliant idea realized very well. That's all I got to say, except that this one wasted more time than a lot of these links do. Thanks Zensho for the reminder on how awesome this one is.

Tunnl

It's a really fun game where you fly as a missile through a 3D tunnel. The mouse controls the motion, but there's a little lag, as inertia comes into play. This one has shaved hours off of my life. It has 9 levels supposedly, but right now I'm stuck on 6. If you can beat it, let me know. Until then, I'm going to keep trying.

Barats & Bereta

Another site with youngsters making funny videos and putting them online. I looks like they started in college and are still at it. The most recent videos are the funniest and I think you might like them.

Will It Blend

A guy blends awesome things in his blender. Like a can of coke, including the can. Or marbles. I wouldn't want my fingers in there, but I love watching the videos of the old man putting in crazy things.

Dan Paladin: Watermelon

A while ago I put Synj.net as an awesome link. Since then Dan Paladin has been busy and one of his projects includes a CD of music entitled Watermelon. It's hard to define, but the closest I can come is if pop music and 8-bit video game scores had a love child, this would be it. You can listen to it (or most of it) on the site.

Flow in Games

This is a really simple and really fun game. You just swim around and eat things. Your creature follows your cursor. If you click, it swims faster. The more you eat, the more you evolve, and the bigger you get. Also, the background music is mellow and cool. Thanks to Dave, for this one.

Pascal


This is the personal site of Pascal, and animator and illustrator. He has a lot of quick sketches and very lively animation. It's very fun to see. I especially enjoy the clips that deal with bosses being a bother at work. Thanks, Zensho, for the link.

Sweaty Robot

Sweaty Robot is a comedy group that makes shorts and produces a podcast. Their stuff is pretty funny, and the production value is higher than most. Definitely give their site a look-through.
