Tesla's Dream -- Free Energy For All

I was trying to find this game earlier and just now found it. It's a great puzzle game where in each level, you have to get the energy from the power supply to the target. Great fun.

Why Don't You Step Down From That Ledge, My Friend....

I'm going back through my StumbleUpon online games favorites and replaying some of them that I really like.
Here's one called Suicide Salaryman. In it, you are a business man and in each level, your goal is to kill yourself. It's not always as straightforward as it sounds. This is a puzzle game.

The Cake is a Lie...

So, I have this Public Speaking class in which I have to do an informative speech. I chose the Rubik's cube -- specifically, some of its important rudimentary principles. In creating the PowerPoint presentation for this assignment, I googled pictures of Rubik's Cubes to improve the presentation.

All that to say, I found a pretty interesting site where this guy Maarten Steurbaut created a functional but challenged Rubik's Cube out of Legos. Here is the link to that: Lego Rubik's Cube.

After he had made this version of the cube, he found out that another AFOL (adult fan of Legos) had built a better cube out of Legos. This inspired him and he took another crack at it, but I'm not going to focus on that. What interests me is the other guys cube.

Martin Howard is his name, and here is the direct link to the Lego Rubik's Cube that he built: click me, I'm Irish.

After checking that out, you might want to look around the rest of his site for even more interesting Lego creations that he's made. Here is a link to the Lego section of his website: Lego my Ego.

Happy surfing.

Let There Be Light

A long, long time ago I played this awesome game called Lightbot. The goal was to program a robot to turn on all the lights on each level. It was challenging and fun. But now, I have discovered the holy grail of online games: Lightbot 2.

Where to start? They've added conditionals, recursions, a system clock (speed) and now you can make your own levels. What's not to like? [ <-- rhetorical question ]

Oh, by the way, if you don't know what a recursion is, that's ok. The game explains it for you, so don't let that stop you from playing.

I've already wasted a few hours on this game, and I'm not even done yet. I have only beaten 15 out of 24 levels so far. Oh, joyous day!

The Sky Is Falling!

I don't have a whole lot to say about this; but here is First Person Tetris. The camera follows the piece and when you turn the piece, the whole camera turns with it. I thought that it was interesting enough to share.
