Orble is a tricky game that requires good hand-eye coordination. You are the gray ball. The goal is to avoid the red balls and collect the green balls. You do this by hopping between the orbits. The real difficult part is that the orbits move at different speeds and directions. It takes great reflexes and skill to survive as long as possible.

Mr. Triangle is a fairly simple and straightforward game. Red and blue balls drop from the top of the screen. It’s your job to move the green triangle in a way that directs the red balls to the red goal and the blue balls to the blue goal. The longer you survive the more difficult it gets. Get as many balls to the correct goal as you can before screwing up.
