Homepage
Author: Matteo Riso

Description: ZipGenius supports more than 20 file format for compression and encoding. OpenOffice documents, WinAMP and Windows Media Player skins can be treated as common zip files, plus they can be "optimized" to gain some extra compression. Even the new "7-zip" format is supported. ZipGenius can also build slideshows if ZG Album module is installed. ZG GUI has been redesigned in order to make it easier to use and now it offers a "XP-like" sidebar for common task, folder structure browsing and other advanced actions. New MultiOpen feature allows to open more than one archive at once. New feature "SmartExtract" allows to extract certain file types to specific folders (ex.: .JPG will go to "My Pictures" under WinXP). New CZIP 2.1 encryption format, so ZG can create even Self-Decrypting Archives (SDA) when you need to send a CZIP file to someone (they look like encrypted executable files). The ftp client, FTPGenius 2003, is also included in this edition. This and much more in ZG 5. It doesn't run under Windows 95. NEW: it runs even under Windows Server 2003 and fits well to multiusers environments. NEW: added support to ZIP64 and SQX formats.

Head Over Heels 1.0 for Win9x/NT4/ME/Win2k/XP (15 mb)

Author: Retrospec

Description: Head Over Heels was released, um, a while ago. Around about 1987 if I recall correctly and it was immediately praised in the press as being quite the bestest thing ever. Not only was it a huge game for it's time, it also had great graphics and was very addictive - if somewhat punishing in its difficulty level. The variety in the locations was amazing and the challenges brilliantly designed. Quite rightly it was awarded with pretty much every accolade that could be bestowed upon it by the various magazines. Even today it still stands as a brilliantly designed title and has never really been bettered in the isometric adventure genre.
