Clusterball is a free and catchy sporting game that can be
played in three modes: Single Player, LAN, and Internet. Single
Player mode plays on the local machine which matches your
wits up against the computer. A LAN game is where one player
can host a local network game, and up to seven of his friends
that are connected to the local Morningside network can join.
The Internet mode allows you to access servers hosted by other
people across the whole internet. The point of the game is
to fly your craft around the map, collecting the "clusterballs".
When you have accumulated any amount of balls, fly them through
the goal to have the number of balls added to your score.
Various utilities at your disposal, such as smoke clouds,
a ball grabber, and an inverse control device allow you to
slow down your opponents, and help increase your score.

Virtual U is a simulation program which simulates the running
of your own college or university. You act as the President,
and must deal with the requests and suggestions of the students,
faculty, board, and alumni of the institution and work to
keep all aspects of the college in order. You have control
over everything from funding to research and even athletics.
This allows you to manage almost all of the basic workings
of your school. There are both preset scenario games, as well
as custom games which give you more flexibility with the starting
of your school. This game is fairly addictive, and its basis
in actual statistics leads to a realistic experience, which
can not only be fun, but educational.
