Can we put non flash games here too?  Cos I really can't stand playing games within a browser.

And does that first game count?  Was hoping to see a game full of great or unique pixel art and its all Metal Slug rips.

Sure non-flash games are cool. I've never played Metal Slug so I didn't know those were rips. Nonetheless, it's still a free game

I found that Fly Girl game a few months ago and played it a lot in my computing class breaks. People would come up behind me and be like "why are you PLAYING that game? it's so BORING" - not to mention the levels don't get harder or with bigger obstacles.

 

But I just played it and played it - ended up looking like a zombie sitting there and tapping away at the arrows keys playing it.

Here is a pixel game (well part anyway) The main sprites are from an old game called battle bull on the gameboy.

P.S. this was my first game and what made me wanna make my own pixel art.

Some great games there, some pixelled.  Couple of lil bits in some of them by me.  The silhoulette that runs past the intro in Legend of Shadow and the lil portrait on the status bar were my very quick contributions.  Some of my projects will be appearing on that site in next few months too.

I'm sure you've probably played them, but I'm finding it hard to believe they aren't listed.

I'm O.K. = Bloody murder simulator designed by Jack Thompson
Eternal Daughter = classic pixel game with art by Derek Yu

Well, it's for the "Furry World", but it's still related to Pixel Art....Isometric "3d" world. For a free MMORPG it's pretty good. You can design art, incorporate it into maps, a very easy to learn but yet powerful scripting language for your maps lets your little world "come to life"....

If you check it out, my name on there is "Raeburn".

I'm surprised you don't have Geneforge on your list! (does it count as online if you have to download it?)

I played it quite a long time ago, but I remember it being quite addictive, and a great game :P

Here's the mainpage. You can only download a demo, but it's a long demo (takes many hours till you can't go further).



Edit: wow! i just realized that they have many more games :P
Avernum looks nice, it seems kinda like the same thing as geneforge though.

VANTAGE MASTER.
http://www.falcom.co.jp/vantage/index_e.html
Alot of you have probably heard of it, or at least of falcom, I remember a really dodgy site from the 90's called "Otaku World" used to have alot of falcom things for download, I don't know if they still exist though.
It's a strategy game that you can play against other people peer to peer, not an mmorpg.

I havent seen a good online game in years, pixel whise.

Hi, a friend suggested I mention my pixelated webgame here, but I'm a bit reluctant to, as a) the quality of pixel-art here is very good, whereas in my game, it's more low-tech/retro/basic functionality; & b) posting one's own links tends to attract flame like moths to...uh...

Anyway; since it is a free, online, pixel art game, I'll dare to post it: WyvernQuest.com
WyvernQuest, my lo-res web game..

Cave Story, I cannot believe that a website dedicated to Pixelart doesn't have a link to Cave Story.
 
This is one of the most incredible games you will ever play, it was made by one guy over the course of 5 years. It has some of the best animation, characters and story plots ever. You're gonna be playing this going "Holy sh*t, is this the lost SNES Cartridge?"
 
It's that good, everyone has to give this game a try:
 
 
[EDIT]: Okay, so you did have a link to cave story...
 
Also, there are 3 different endings, a sh*tload of secrets and lots of awesome and unique weapons.
 
Gamma Bros, A fun little shooter with great pixel animation and lots of replayability, it gets really hard and theres a ton of enemies, I haven't beaten it yet, for those of you who dont like it in the browser, you can download it from somewhere else, just google it:
 
 
And Ur-Quan Masters, a remake of an old game from the 3DO called "Star Control II", it's abandonware now so you guys should really check it out:
 
 
All of these games are free by the way.

I played it last week and took me two hours to finish it. It's great, and addictive. Requires a good sincronization in both hands.
