Sketchy Business
In Sketchy Business you play a doodle named Biff whose task is to find his family which was torn away from him and placed in the back of the sketchbook. Biff using a creative arsenal of unconventional weapons, must make his way through the sketchbook fighting such enemies as dinosaurs with jetpacks, business suit birds, angry golfers, a giant tyrannosaurus rex, and an evil flying demon. Upgrade Biff for his difficult journey by using the in-game shop to upgrade weapons and armor. Only you can help Biff on his sketchy journey through the sketchbook. It’s going to be some Sketchy Business.

Swarm
“Essence”. It powers the land of Ry’Yath and all the living beings that live off of it.
The land of Ry’Yath, made of 3 separate factions, has not known war for generations. Conflicts still occur but dissipate in a diplomatic manner. The land enjoys it’s time of peace, and the world reflects this.
But war is coming
A dark tower has risen from the ground in the center of Ry’Yath, and Necromancers march from it’s gate in every direction.
A generation that has never known war is consumed by panic. The factions turn on each other to ensure their survival. The “Essence” becomes tainted with anger and pain; and just as the world reflects peace, it reflects war as well. The factions of Ry’Yath go to war against the Necromancers... each other... and the very world itself.

Fighting Friday
Fighting Friday is a competitive fighting game designed for web. It features hand drawn HD artwork and it runs on most computers that have come out within the last 10 years. Right now you can download the beta version and play it for free. This game was designed for Joysticks / controllers, so we suggest that you use Joy-to-key. (We include a distribution of Joy-to-key that is customized for this game included in the game's zip file)
We would like to bring this game to the web in HTML 5. Fighting games are not often found for free on the internet; and when they are they do not have very compelling social features. We would like to have an import photo function, so people easily can paste their face on their character. Online play would be important to increasing replay value. In order to capture the widest audience we would like to put this on Facebook.

Z-Poc
Z-Poc is the short version of the zombie apocalypse. The zombies are rapidly taking control, and there is little hope for humanity. All that stands in their way is one man who took up arms for Queen and country. He stands boldly awaiting the onslaught. Never yielding, he fights on. He shall stand against the zombie horde and be back in time for tea… Or at least that is the plan…
Z-Poc is a top-down, tower-defence survival game where you must endure as many waves of zombies as you can. You do this by collecting resources to build a fort to defend yourself and using your turret to kill zombies. Sounds simple enough.
