MFGG 10th Anniversary Time Capsule by Thunder Dragon, Kritter, DJ Yoshiman, ShadowMan, Klobber, and Retriever II(Large image warning)Spoiler:
This isn't a standard game, of course, but rather a compilation of twelve different games reminiscent of MFGG's earlier days that didn't necessarily grow anywhere close to a stage of completion. While some of these games are so incomplete they're barely playable, and many of the others are horribly glitchy or unrefined, they're definitely worth playing not only to give those uninitiated newcomers a taste of what the older games felt like, but also to showcase a good number of interesting ideas that sadly never made it to the finish line. And mixed in with the deceased demos and clashing graphics, you'll find some games that are actually quite fun - like the Toad Strikes Back Prototype, which is
not just an early beta of TSB. Also worth noting is the presentation itself - while many of the games themselves are anything but polished, the Super Mario All-Stars-like opening and game select screen are both done wonderfully and wouldn't be a bad thing for other prolific game makers to try sometime. Sure, it's a 40-megabyte download, and many of the games aren't the greatest things you'll ever see, but this pack is well worth checking out if you haven't already.
I can think of a few games worth giving an honorable mention to: Toad's Adventure is a pretty awesome demo, Bloop Rinse is a well-done minigame, and Waligie and the Political Machine is a fun joke game that you'll love if you're a fan of that sort of thing.
Lastly, I apologize for the lateness - this has been a really busy week for me, in both a good way and a bad way, and I've been distracted finishing some of the other games that just barely missed the cut on my 30 Games Worth Playing feature.
