I was told there isn’t going to be any game giveaway for Sunday, though there may be a possibility that Saturdays Tank game may be held over for an extra day. Anyway, here are three games to keep you occupied over the next week. Two are fighting games, one of which I thought I’d already posted (Beat of Rage Remake), but can’t find it in the synopsis, so presume I found the game but didn’t post it at the time. I lost quite a lot of games when one of my hard drives died o me last year. Though I suspect that it may have been posted before the free games project actually started and that G@rgoyle hasn’t found it as I think she’s not completed a scan of the whole forum yet; (there are thousands of posts, so it’ll take a long time.). Still it doesn’t matter if we have the odd repeat. The second fighting game is called Marvel Super Heroes. I posted a similar one a few weeks ago, but that one was the melee edition. Today’s is half the download size, and better for those on dial up because the game is quite large. The final one is called Purple a decent 60 level platform game.

Marvel Super Heroes: (164Mb)
The Marvel Super Heroes remake by SpiDoL is a decent effort developed with the MUGEN game engine.This remake is as good as it gets, It makes the player feels like it is playing in a arcade machine.
Most of the standard and special moves from the arcade version have been retained, hence veterans should be able to figure out the controls in no time. Some of the new characters are pretty fun to play with as well. A simultaneous team mode also allows all four combatants to slug it out at the same time.
Author Description:
I have created Marvel Super Heroes, a fighting game made using the MUGEN Game Engine.
The game includes an arcade mode, team battle, survival, and watch mode.
The roster of heroes are :

Authors Note :
Also, there's a hidden character in the game: the Sentinel. Here's how to unlock him:
Open up "data\select.def". Scroll down until you see:
drdoom, stages/....
randomselect
thanos, stages/....
Replace that randomselect with:

And you have the Sentinel!

Purple (12.7Mb)
A very enjoyable and wonderful platformer, 60 levels
A bit similar to Super Mario World. Explore varied levels filled with secrets and bonuses, while smashing blocks and enemies with your Frisbee.
Your main weapon is the Frisbee - with it you can break blocks (green blocks sometimes contain bonuses) and destroy enemies.
The blocks with '?'s on them often contain weapons. When you get a special weapon, you can revert back to the standard Frisbee by pressing the Switch key (A).
When you finish a level, a new one will be unlocked on the map screen.
Sometimes, when you step on a blank node, a random battle will trigger (with a mini-boss).
Your hearts refill after beating each level, but be careful not to lose them in the mini-boss fights.
At the end of each world (there are six worlds total), you must fight a boss in order to progress to the next one.
After you complete a world, your progress will be saved and your maximum hearts - increased by one.
Each level is filled with a certain number of bonuses - to complete the level at 100%, you must collect them all.
Some levels contain well-hidden gems. Find enough gems and you will unlock bonus content in the Unlockables section.
There are various other secrets in the game - good luck finding them!
