Here’s a Canadian game maker who develops retro games and many of these games are not only fun but portable! Iteration Games has several original old-style games available for free download on their website. I tested out three games but there are several more that you can try out on your flash drive, depending on your tastes: Joust 3: Revenge of the Lava Troll is a scrolling game based on the Joust arcade, lockOn is an asteroids-like shooter game and The Life in Matter is a single key game.

I added three portable Asteroids games to the Games Page, ranging in size from 22 KB to 14 MB. Let’s have a look at them:

Asteroids Classic – Macromedia Flash version

Exactly like the good ol’ days! My personal favorite! Plus it’s the smallest at 22 KB. As mentioned before, you need to have Macromedia Plug-in installed on the computers you play on. To download, click on the file below, then do a Save Page As from your browser’s File menu.

Asteroids Clone from Minionsoft

This one is a pretty fun version. It’s 2.77 MB and in 3D. There’s a warp speed feature where you can apear in another place on the screen in a flash.

Asteroids Clone

Another 3D version. I can’t play this one for long since the movement makes me sea sick – not the game’s fault as the graphics are neat. Give it a try if you don’t mind the 14 MB file size.
