Games
To run these applications, you need at least the Java 6 JRE installed. If you do not have it, you can download it here. All downloaded .jar files are runnable, which means you can double click them to open the application.

I created this application for fun. Basically, its a modified version of the classic Asteroids game. You start on level 30, so press 'n' to start a new game. The # of Asteroids grow as you progress the levels and hyper-transport to new areas. You also gain levels as you increase your score.
There are two noticeable bugs that are kind of fun: if you just spawn from hyper-transport and spin while holding space, you get a short range chain-gun. When you die, shots that are still lingering become mines; when an asteroid hits them, they explode. I was thinking to add these to the next version as actual weapons, but I haven't had a chance to do it yet.
This was one of the first games I ever attempted to create -- its also the one that took the longest and has the most features (auto saving, auto clicking, a cheat board, auto clearing, double clicking, update checking, score-keeping, and much more).
There are 3 skill levels much like the classic game + a custom board with your choice of x by y boxes. Changes include: shortcut keys like restart (if you lose and want to try the same map again), auto solving (if you are stuck between 2 you can't figure it out), and opening the cheat board (which shows you mine locations in a sep window). You can also enable the EZ-Flagger which flags all easily recognizable flag positions, like for example, a stray box in the corner you might have missed. For the ultra lazy, there's also the Auto-Flagger, which makes it so that you never have to right click in MineSweeper ever again.
This app is my attempt at recreating the famous shield shifting pattern in one of my favorite games (and one of the very first multiplayer games on the internet), of all time called Tanarus. I made this after Sony Online Entertainment decided to get rid of the game because of compatibility issues with Windows Vista and 7.
After hitting "Apply", Q shifts shields forward, E shifts shields backwards and space mimics a tank firing at your shields, so you can gauge how the shields work in combat :).
This version of TicTacToe has an advanced Computer AI to play against. This AI doesn't just place O's in random places. It actually tries to win and will block all your moves --- unless of course, you are good enough to trick it. The AI will pseudo-randomly select places to move when no sure block or win move is present. This results in different turnouts from the last time you made the same start move.
Try and win. It will draw you almost every single time!
