The Download Pointe - The Low-Bandwidth Gamer's Download Haven on the Net


The Download Pointe


Lots of things have changed since the last upload, which was all too long ago. Change your bookmarks, coz The Download Pointe has moved! I finally got tired of the Yahoo takeover of GeoCities, so we're now hosted by FortuneCity. And as before, we'll continue to bring you low-bandwidth, low-fuss downloads.

What's New

Things have changed quite a bit in the download sections. Files are sorted alphabetically, instead of by file size. The division between low and high bandwidth downloads still remains though. The sound of music lingers in the air when you turn on the new Jukebox. Featuring a neater design and new music selections. Sign the new Guestbook, hosted by Bravenet Web Services. We want to hear what you think of this site. Pity it uses a few graphics, but they shouldn't be much burden on your modem.

What's Hot

Brainwave
Super Mario Brothers
Exile: Escape from the Pit
The Nanobots have invaded your mind, and it's up to you to destroy them. Blast, hammer and otherwise annihilate them in levels of increasing difficulty. Be warned, their AI adapt to exploit weaknesses in your playing style. The great platform action of the classic console game returns to life in this freeware rendition. The levels have been completely redesigned, and are now more unique and challenging. You're an Exile, cast into an underground world by the Empire. Choose your destiny in this RPG. Will you escape the caverns or seek vengeance against the Empire? Or are you content with spending the rest of your days under the surface?

You are low-bandwidth downloader number to saunter in since 5 September 1999.
Plus 18000 others before that.
Site last updated: 5 September 1999

I know it's been eons since the last update, but I have really good excuses. Exams, virus attack and having too much fun blasting aliens to dust on my new Pentium II sorta put back my webpage a little. Okay, a lot.
