To the best I can tell, Acord's first game was the ''[[Penguin Pete]]'' character swap ''[[Icemare]]''. After that come his core games -- the ''[[Zapman]]''/''[[Zapper]]'' series, ''[[Capn Zapn]]'', ''[[Major Marvel]]'', ''[[Jaxon Zoose]]'', and ''[[Street Wolf]]''. We can probably consider ''[[Dogs]]'', ''[[The Head]]'', and ''[[Spacecraft]]'' spin-offs of those games, that appropriate recurring enemies or elements as protagonists. Then we have the ''Pac-Man'' clones, that seem to have spun off of ''The Fantastic Zapman''. And finally we have the megamixes -- ''[[Anyworld]]'', ''[[Superheroes]]'', and ''[[Ultimare]]'' -- which fold all of the previous games together into a mush of a muchness. As it were. So if anyone is to make sense of the catalog, it's probably with that primary run of games listed above.

Acord: The World's Greatest Super-Hero Games

The publishing label of a certain Gary Acord. Huge comic book fan, apparently. Also fond of Wolfenstein and scantily clad ladies.

All his games seem to use a common pool of resources, and most of them are based around either a Pac-Man tribute or dubious edits of RSD's demo games.

To the best I can tell, Acord's first game was the Penguin Pete character swap Icemare. After that come his core games -- the Zapman/Zapper series, Capn Zapn, Major Marvel, Jaxon Zoose, and Street Wolf. We can probably consider Dogs, The Head, and Spacecraft spin-offs of those games, that appropriate recurring enemies or elements as protagonists. Then we have the Pac-Man clones, that seem to have spun off of The Fantastic Zapman. And finally we have the megamixes -- Anyworld, Superheroes, and Ultimare -- which fold all of the previous games together into a mush of a muchness. As it were. So if anyone is to make sense of the catalog, it's probably with that primary run of games listed above.

More information pending.
