Platdude Retro Collection 12
Collection of retro styled games


Jayenkai is back with an update to his collection of retro-styled games. New additions to the roster include Escape, Missile Command, Dot Pop, Pacman (now with two screens), Frogger, Pong, and Tetris. Download and full game descriptions below.

[title:The Games]Centipede

Blast away all the approaching Centipede bits. Every piece that escapes from play removes 25 of your hard earned points.
Rated 4/5

Snake

Guide the Snake towards the numbered blocks. Pick up the number of points displayed on the Block. If it reaches 0, the block becomes a solid brick. Try not to crash.
Rated 3/5

Invaders

Destroy all the Alien Invaders before they reach the bottom of the screen. No bases to hide with and plenty of enemy gunfire makes this a super-rapid version of Invaders. A fan favourite.
Rating 5/5

Light Cycles

Guide your way away from the enemy lines in a rather basic remake of the classic Tron game.
Rating 3/5

Asteroids

Shoot all the floating Asteroids for whatever reason there ever was for doing it in any other version of the game! Asteroids is fun!
Rating 4/5

Racer

This game sucks, and has since been hidden away like some kind of rubbish Easter Egg..
Rating 1/5

Escape

Grab the blue square and keep it away from the red ones. Pick up Green ones for extra points.
Rating 4/5 : Windows version by Magicman

Missile Command

Destroy the approaching missiles, before they destroy your bases! Every missile that hits the land takes away a point!.. The Green ones are worth extra.
Rating 4/5

Dot Pop

With 30 seconds on the clock, hit as many squares as you can.
Will probably be renamed by the time you play it! Then again, maybe not!
Rating 4/5

Pacman

With two full screens of pills to empty, and eight ghosts running around, you’d better get moving. (Strangely, it’s not as much fun as it oughta be..)
Rating 3/5

Frogger

No river, just 2 huge busy roads to pass. The top lot move faster, so you’re gonna have to be quick to score any points. Get to the top and start again, but with more cars.
Rating 5/5

Pong

Just you, a CPU, and a ball too. And another ball if you play on High.. .. And 3 on Extreme.
Rating 3/5

Tetris

Much requested, and so eventually added. This game tries to be a Good Tetris game, and hopefully you’ll enjoy it. I might add Bombliss later, since I really love that game, too!
Rating 4/5

    @_Ruri_, I used to have an MSI Netbook way back in the 2010's, and lemme tell ya, it was very slow.
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    Loved those things though
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Windows 7 ran okay, but you needed to change the performance settings and set the theme to classic to be at least usable. So Windows XP was more preferable.
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    There's something fascinating about small laptops

    @SylverReZ, Yeah. Imagine how well Vista ran lmao

    @_Ruri_, I like laptops in small formfactors, still got an Asus and Toshiba laptop that I use for testing stuff out.

    The MSI one is long gone.
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    @SylverReZ, I still gave the HP Netbook in my drawer lol, it was my first computer, I could never get rid of it

  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    Don't use laptops too much tbh, especially small laptops, iPads completely obliterated them in everything tbh

    The last laptop I ever used was a Lenovo (not a ThinkPad), storage got full quite quickly because it was limited to 32GB lol.

    It ran Windows 10 which was before I moved to Linux.

  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    Mine too was a Lenovo, it was 512gb though so memory was ok
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    It still runs Win10 but I'm planning to use it as a media server.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    I never use Win10 or Win11 because of the risks associated, I'm a lot more fond of the customization and ease of use when using Linux.
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    I'm on Win11 IoT Enterprise LTSC, it gets security updates for 10 years and you can disable a lot of telemetry and other stuff with groups policies
