Ad-free and open source games for desktop, web, and mobile
J2ME

J2ME, aka MIDP or just "Java", is a major standard for mobile phones. There are 2 billion mobile phones out there that can run J2ME software.

Download the JAR to your phone either directly or via your computer. Sometimes you need a JAD (basically a shortcut) to download the JAR.

Android

You can directly download an Android package (APK) to your Android device, or go the Android Market and install it from there.

Desktop

Some games have a desktop version which comes as a Jar or a JNLP (Java Webstart) link. This requires Java to be installed.

Opening a JNLP will download the appropriate packages and run the game.

You can also save the JNLP to disk, and click on it to start the game.

A Jar can be downloaded and run immediately. Save the jar and click on it to run.

Flash

This indicates a Flash version. It runs in your web browser, but can also be downloaded to your desktop to run without web browser. Right-click the "download" link and click "Save link as ...".

Source

If the source is available, this points to a package where the source can be found.

About ...

Tomatic Games is a website where I host some of my better games and gamedev related software. Gamedev is something I do in my spare time. I prefer a keep it simple and short approach to game design: most of these games took between a few hours and a few days to create. In this game collection you will find various experiments in gameplay, graphics, game engines, and procedural generation.
