Critic's Choice Part 2
2008_06_20_thumb.jpgIn this second selection of the best entries that we've recieved, some of the hit games that we featured after our first month challenge return, with Dobbs Derby II and Badly Drawn Robots II, for example, both superb evolutions on the original games.

Dr. Dobbs Mod Power (Fábio Lanzarin, Rafael Silva e Souza)

This unique mod from the team of Fábio Lanzarin and Rafael Silva e Souza gives Dr. Dobbs some new found powers with a "Modgun" that allows Dr. Dobbs to modify the platforms and walls in his way to allow him to traverse the levels. With only a limited number of modifications possible with his gun, the game is not only a platform game but also a challenging puzzle. [download now]

Dr. Dobbs Challenge Remix (RetroEpic)

The RetroEpic team have created an entirely different game from the original Dr. Dobbs Challenge with this mod -- instead of a platform game this is a puzzle title using the Box 2D engine, where players must use a variety of different methods to compel Visual Studio icons into a box.

This modification developed by Rod Hyde is a fast paced arena shooter where the player's aim is controlled by the mouse and movement by the keyboard. Inspired by Bezerk and Robotron, despite the name the drawing of the robots has improved greatly from the original version submitted! [download now]

If you do download Badly Drawn Robots, make sure to install the hiscore.ttf font (or use the .msi installer) otherwise it won't look quite right.

Hi there!

Not sure what the issue with the Mod Power download is, I've tried it again and it works. Perhaps something went a bit screwy for a while. Please try again!

Thanks,

Mathew
