Acord: The World's Greatest Super-Hero Games

Designer of many Game-Maker games and Wolf3D hacks published under the Acord Games label. Huge comic book fan. Also fond of scantily clad ladies.

Most his games seem to use a common pool of resources, and several involve a Pac-Man tribute of some sort.

Acord's first Game-Maker game appears to have been Icemare, which is based heavily on Penguin Pete. 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 one is to make sense of the catalog, it's probably best to start with that core run of games listed above.

More information pending.
