The Game:

Celsius is a side scrolling pixel shooter reminicient of those early 90’s side scrolling shooters. If you are into shmups, this is definitely one to download. You start with five lives and can pick up various power ups, including extra lives (though only to a maxiumum of the number of lives you start with). Weapons are upgradable to lasers and rockets as you progress. Movement keys include ↑, ↓, ← & → or WASD to move up, down, left or right and to shoot use the LMB.

You can see a video of game play via the Steam store page HERE,

If today’s game doesn’t appeal to you and you still need a game fix, there are always alternative freebies available, or you could check out some of the indie bundles that are available via Indie Gala and the Humble bundle; there are lads of different indie bundles available , but the two i mentioned consistently include decent games that are worth buying, especially at the prices being asked, whereas 'most' of the other indie bundles that are still available tend to include a lot of those £0.79p games most of which are rubbish, though there are exceptions such as the Fanatical bundles (formerly called Bundle Stars). The latest Epic game available for free is Conarium (an atmospheric and chilling Lovecraftian walking simulator horror adventure game worth £15). Next week; Thursday 19th September the game changes to another one that hasn't been announced yet. Also, check out Indie Gala for lots of freebies (20+) HERE. They add new games regularly (at least 2 or 3 every week) via their Developers showcase section; whereas some are removed. you can add them to your indie Gala library and/or download a free standing version of each game (some even have Mac versions to download). Recent additions include HERE (a bloody love story between Bunny and Carrot not suitable for children due to blood and gore, despite having a childish graphic style), Lucid Nina, Journey of a Roach, Welcome To... Chichester OVN 2 : Master Tormentor Grendel Jinx !?, Hell Cat Redux, Lady’s Hentai Mosaic, Pixel Hentai mosaic; (some of the latter titles include adult content), plus Land it Rocket (moon lander type game), Poly Golf a simple top down golf game), Pixel Hentai Mosaic (adult content), Five Nations (A futuristic real-time strategy game that follows the events of a mind-bending opera of space about the survival of humanity.) and Snake Eyes Dungeon (a dice based dungeon crawler).
