Here’s another fun one from the folks out at Kongregate–it’s even got a little social commentary stacked in just for extra fun.  It’s called GlueFO 2.0, and it will change the way you think about shooter games.

Basically, you’re the pilot in charge of the GlueFO.  Your primary weapon is, essentially, whatever you can pick up.  Seems your government couldn’t afford to install conventional weaponry on the GlueFO due to a credit crunch brought on by subprime mortgage lending (that’s your social commentary), and so they’ve outfitted you with a force field that will allow you to catch tiny bits of matter flying around your ship.  To release them ballistically at other targets, you simply reverse the force field’s polarity.  Think Asteroids, only where you can’t shoot at the asteroids but instead have to collect the tiniest bits of asteroid and use them to shoot down the others.

So yes, it’s another interesting refination on a classic game, and I find that a good thing, myself.  It’s interesting to see what directions classic gaming can take, and classic gaming can definitely use some new directions.  It’s fun to follow along, especially when they let you play for free.
