    A racing game where the goal isn't so much to cross XD6V3
    the finish line as to stop neatly in front of it. Almost
    as much puzzle game as arcade racer, "You Suck" is a game that's
    a bit too whacky and 'xtreme' for my tastes, but I can K43X3
    understand why it might appeal to others.JRFEB

    Yes, it's another ancient DOS classic, but on the plus sideGIYZP
    there's only one of these! One of Apogee's last platformers,
    it's a fairly competent and good looking action game, with
    some nice backgrounds and good animations. The gameplay 6600H
    itself is fairly average but if you enjoy games from this
    era, this isn't a bad example of the genre.JDDGX

    I don't like racing games or platformers so I will pass on these.

    But does that mean there will be more games tomorrow? Well, I guess
    you'll just have to come back and find out for yourself!

    I'll be here!

    Currently on sale for $3.99 in case you miss the code.

    It's a cute idea.

    I didn't do that intensive a search, but the earliest post I found
    doing a CSIPGA Holiday Give-Away dates back to 2014. Can you imagine
    that we've been doing this for ten years already?! It wasn't always as grandiose as recent years have been, but the core conceit --giving
    away keys for games to be claimed on digital marketplaces-- has
    remained throughout. It really IS a yearly tradition!

    So let's keep that tradition going! Here are some more games!

    Thanks. I might like this. I like these weird games. ;)

    I am pretty sure I played its shareware back then and didn't like it so pass.


    Thanks to a Great Reshuffling, I was able to find some extra games to
    offset my poor scheduling that almost made me miss out on providing
    goodies today. And a good thing too! We can't have empty stockings
    this holiday season! Every day must have free games!

    Ha, I was here earlier and didn't see your post. I was like oh yeah, he
    frakked up yesterday. Oh look, he posted today so here I am!


    But does that mean there will be more games tomorrow? Well, I guess
    you'll just have to come back and find out for yourself!

    Ho-ho-ho!

    Can't wait!

    Oooh! Ant is neck-n-neck with Geeknix again. Meanwhile, once-mighty
    MikeS is falling behind. We got a few others trailing behind, and a
    bunch who haven't even figured how to get out the gate. But the race
    is still on and there's ever so much farther to go!


    You call it losing, I call it restraint. :^P
