I just had a friend forward me a challenge to this new game site, Big Bomb Games. They have three flash games online, a Breakout clone, a BlackJack game and a game I have never seen before, a mix between Marble Madness, Othello and a demolition derby.

They seem to be just starting out, but you can register and post your scores and challenge friends to beat your scores.

Check it out at http://www.bigbombgames.com

This is a nice layout, and the site contains some games I have never seen anywhere else ... are they custom made for that site ?

I just noticed this thread. I worked on these games and I only posted the site on kirupa yesterday (in the showcase forum.) It's kind of cool seeing it posted here from someone else :)

All the games are custom for the site (the site really is just the main delivery vehicle for the games.) All the design and music are also custom for the games (currently 3 of us working on the project... 1 in charge of design, 1 in charge of music and me in charge of dev.) We should also have a couple more up in the next 4-6 weeks.

Thanks for checking it out and for the feedback :)

Is there a package that we can download and install on our own game sites ?
Are they free to include in our sites ?

They are completely free to host/post on your site. If you want the downloadable versions on your site you're free to grab them and disribute them however you like. If want the online/swf versions you can either just point to our servers as the source of the flash file, or I can send you versions of the swfs to post (that don't have the various XML calls to our server.)

If you want to point to the source files on our servers, the swf locations are:

www.bigbombgames.com/downloads/bustup.swf ; disco.swf ; and blackjack.swf

If you'd like versions to host on your server, just PM me and I'll get them out to you.

Thanks :)

Thanks for the feedback, everyone. Disco Balls is definitely the most popular game out of the three we launched with.

On the design concern, are you referring to the site, the games or both? Any suggestions on what you'd do different? Both our designer and I are long-time Kirupians (though I don't think he posts) and we're definitely open to any ideas or suggestions. :)

A few people have started asking about hosting these games on their site, etc. I've added a page to the site where anyone can download media packs that include swfs, exes and Mac apps. This was just something I didn't have ready for the initial launch last week:
