Does any one remember this really old game? *Game found + Free linky*

[sillymofo]

You have two cannons firing at each other, and in between, you'd have hills, height factor, wind velocity & direction, powder charge, and angle of cannon. The objective was to blow the other cannon up first, any one?

EDIT: if some one is really good with swf, I think we might have a better version tomorrow. here's to hoping :beer:

Thanks... I found it, and here's the free game linky.

edit EDIT: Now on to find Artillery. 😉

What about the game where bombs were falling from the sky, and you had to shoot up and intercept them before they touched the earth?

For anyone who cares, there's a similar online game called Gunbound that's a free download. Nothing like blowing other people up in realtime.

I remember playing that with my brothers. Freaking sweet game.

 

[Indolent]

nibbles was definitely fun. Gorilla got boring once you got too good at, one throw kills all the time. (maybe I played too much) 🙂
