Incredible Shrinking Sphere (ISS)

Well well well, here we have an original and challenging game  [smiley=vuvuzela.gif]

Set on an isometric tiled maze, you must successfully guide the sphere around it, picking up weapon upgrades and killing enemies along the way - sounds simple, but controlling that spherical hero is another thing entirely and will take a good bit of swearing before you master the balls momentum.

At the start of each level you have the humorously titled screen called "Place a Dump" where you can drop off some ammo dumps whihc you will need to ensure your sphere remains well armed.  Each level is tiered, so there are holes/lifts to take you between the levels to find your escape goal.  As in other games of this style there are tiles which perform different functions - the "?" tiles are random results, other shrink you whilst others make your sphere gains weight and become less responsive etc

The scrolling is a little jerky, but the fun gameplay does make you forgive this and you should find yourself becoming rather addicted.
