   All of these games were created by students from the University of Cornell. After the massive amount of games posted yesterday, I have decided to post good but average quality games. So don't worry too much if you don't have time to play them. I'll post better games next week.

   ---------------------------------------------------------------------

   Shards of a Broken Land

   Shards of a Broken Land is a turn based strategy/rpg game. It is good except the levels are a bit repetitive and a minor but annoying camera bug. The battle system is pretty standard, battles take place on a grid. It also has a standard rpg system. Your characters gain experience to level up and get new abilities. It does have an interesting world map.

   Sydonis

   Sydonis is an action/puzzle game that takes place on a spaceship being attacked by evil robots. Your character is equipped with a very weak energy gun and a powerful but limited supply of bombs. There are powerups to restore your health, get more bombs, etc. The main objective is to get to the next room.

   Restless Moon

   Restless Moon is a 2d top down shooter. It's a bit repetitive and isn't really complete. The main issue is that there is no end of the level so all you can really do is kill all of the enemies. But it is still fun for a few minutes.

   Restless Moon 2

   Restless Moon 2 is a first person shooter. It is good but completely average. The basic story is that you are sent to the moon to kill Bade Luno, leader of the rebel mutant army. It is still fun to play if you're not expecting anything too special.

   These look like they could be really good games. I've downloaded Shards and RM 2. I won't be able to play any games until tomorrow though so I can't really offer up any opinions or guides as of yet. Excellent job here so far.

   Thanks for the games.

   Only an alumni would point out that it is Cornell University and not U of C.

   Oops, it is Cornell University. My mistake.
   Also, these games are just average-good. I'm not going to be posting the very good games until later just so that they don't make the average games look much worse.

   Restless Moon 2 is fun if you know the controls. It's also very hard to beat. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V2Tf6uf1VWM

   The Controls are:

   1. W, A, S, D + Mouse for movement. Space to jump. Click to shoot. R to reload.
   2. Shift for "dashing." If you dash into a ramp you'll go flying up. You can also dash after jumping.
   3. G for grenade.
   4. Mouse Scroll Wheel to change weapons.
   5. Esc to skip story.
