TUBE is a fantastic fast-paced racer game that’ll remind you of F-Zero.

You control a spaceship from the future in a psychedelic tunnel. The only objective is to race through the level as fast as you possibly can. The levels are filled with hazards like rolling gears, fans, tunnels, bricks, and roadblocks. The game offers absolutely no mercy and raging is guaranteed.

You have the ability to dodge, dash, and even do a barrel roll while you hover through the twisting and winding tracks. The main move you’ll be using is dashing because it’s super useful for getting an extra speed boost to get a nice time.

If you hold down the dash button, you can speed yourself up and get the best possible time. You don’t actually race other players, but rather you try to beat the clock.

But you need to use the other abilities as well. You can dodge and barrel roll to quickly move left or right so you can dodge obstacles that appear. You can also jump and leap off ramps for quite a distance. If you push back on the control stick, you can actually fly temporarily. This is actually pretty cool. You can hover this way.

The game plays similar to Super Meat Boy.

TUBE is a very difficult game that requires twitch reflexes. If you’re not fast enough, you’ll smash into something and it’s game over. You’ll only progress through trial-and-error. If you fail, you’ll have to try again. It’s rage-inducing. Every track is possible to beat, but it’s not easy at all. The tracks get more difficult as you progress.

If you’re in for a challenge, TUBE is worth checking out. The graphics fit the genre and the fast-paced, ragey gameplay are perfect. You’ll need some patience to play this game. Get ready to rage quit. It’s built for that.

Damsel is an awesome platformer game that’s based on super fast-paced gameplay as you jump, dodge, and blast your way through a gothic world.

The graphics are what you’ll notice first. They’re like a blend of old-school Donkey Kong levels mixed with modern platformers like Ori and the Blind Forest. They’re actually very appealing to look at and compliment the dark world pretty well.

You play as a character named Damsel, who’s on a mission to find out the status of a vampiric drink called “Red Mist.” It supposedly can help vampires satisfy their need for human blood without actually having to kill a human.

You’ll soon quickly learn that the company behind the drink had their formula way off, and that’s where you come into play.

You’ll have to blast through the levels with an awesome UV shotgun made just to blow the vampires’ to pieces. Each level consists of lots of timed jumps and precision jumps, some of which involve you having to shoot and jump simultaneously.

Agent Damsel has no fear though. The game is a very fast-paced platformer which leaves you little time to think and offers you tons of missions broken down into miniature bite-sized tasks rather than level-long missions. You have to complete tasks like killing all vampires, collecting objects, saving hostages, and other things.

The UI features a score meter which sprites a bunch of numbers so you can see your points in real time. You get points based on combat, bonus tasks, and speed. There are also collectibles littered throughout each level you can find which add to your total score.

If you’re looking for an awesome, fast indie platformer that’s packed with action, look no further.

Try out Damsel and get that trigger-happy fix.

Loop is an action-based, fast-paced game built for the CGA Jam.

You play a yellow-orange circle in a looping level that changes slightly each loop. The goal is to just get the best score possible.

You’re falling downwards like as if gravity were on steroids and you need to dodge platforms, enemies, spikes, gems, and other obstacles. Each one requires a different approach and you need to think fast. For example, enemies need to be smacked. Gems can be snatched for points. Platforms and spikes should be avoided (obviously).

Another feature is that the level changes. The walls have either green or red coloring, which signify that they’ve faded and are no longer part of the playzone. They’ll appear and shift to change the level layout each loop.

The game does get difficult, but you get three hits before it’s game over. And your hits recharge slowly. If you make it to the bottom of the level,  loop it again. Each loop increases in speed and it plays like an arcade game.

Loop is an awesome little game with cool visuals and a unique gameplay style. It makes for a nice Let’s Play episode or you can play it just for some cheap thrills. If you have quick reflexes, put it to the test with loop.

Check it out. The game doesn’t even need to be downloaded. It can be played right in the browser window using the link below. Does it get any easier to play games nowadays?

Controls:

The only controls used are the arrow keys for movement. Use Left and Right Arrow to maneuver your orb around the screen.
