Kobo Deluxe

Now for a classic! Kobo Deluxe is a super-intense shooter, where split-second reaction time and an ability to keep track of lots of things at once is necessary to succeed. Gameplay is basic, control your space fighter in 8 directions, shooting forward and backwards, and destroy space fortresses bit by bit in order to reach their core and remove them for good. For each level the fortresses get a bit bigger and enemies a bit more agressive. It might sound like something you would tire of quickly, but Kobo is simply so well tuned and so challenging, you'll keep coming back for another go. I never thought I would enjoy this game as much as I have, but it really is a gameplay masterpiece. The nice retro graphics and smooth engine puts it all together into a great package, and considering that it's available for pretty much every major operating system in existance, there's no reason to not try it. Get it from here.

This is an easy level, just wait until that map on the right is completely covered...
