Here you will find 2D games that cover many genres. They span from puzzle, to platformer, to action and beyond. Aside from completed works, there are also a few projects that are still works in progress.

It is important to note that almost all releases are accompanied with full source code. This means you have access to every line of code that went into making a particular game. For fellow programmers, this is a great opportunity to learn how to create games of your own! You can visit www.blitzbasic.com to find out more about game programming.
