GridBike is a simple game which tests your reflexes and route planning as you steer a bike around a grid avoiding obstacles while rescuing men. All levels are randomly generated for a fresh challenge every time you play — perfect for whenever you have a spare minute or two.

This version of the game is based on the original which I wrote for the Commodore 64 back in 1986.

GridBike is compatible with handhelds that run Palm OS 5. The original Commodore 64 version is also available.

As well as being a more convenient way of controlling Bluetooth, this helps to reduce the drain on your battery. Features include:

Blue Fang is compatible with handhelds that run Palm OS 5 and use Palm's Bluetooth stack, except the Sony TH55 and the Treo 650. Blue Fang is available in English, French, Russian, and German.

Ephemera is a screen saver that draws random IFS fractals, giving an ever-changing display of complex shapes reminiscent of those found in nature.

C64 v1.1 — Microsoft Windows Freeware
C64 screenshot

C64 is a screen saver that turns your boring PC into a faithful replica of the classic personal computer of the 80's... A time when computers booted in less than 1 second, 64k of RAM seemed limitless, and only the lucky few had a floppy drive. Show this screen saver to your grandpa and watch him come over all nostalgic.
