Casual Collective

Casual Collective has been linked before[Previously, and Previously-er], but they have some more recent, well-crafted games.
Get Smart Control Defense is a tower defense style game. Yes, it's sponsored by the movie, but it's not particularly bad about bludgeoning you with ads.
Attack of the Buggles is a totally different style of game, where manual dexterity is king. You play a lone gray buggle, collecting blue boxes to boost your score while avoiding the red buggles, which increase in number as you collect more boxes. There is a time-slowing mechanic, and, even more satisfying, a periodic green buggle that allows you to take revenge on those nasty reds.
Other single player games include:
Desktop Armada Missions
Flash Element TD
and
Flash Element TD 2
Registration is not required to play any of the single player games. To play multi-player games, you can register for free. If you want to play the currently-in-beta Buggle Stars, you must pay to upgrade your registered account.

I didn't intend it as a double - I checked the history and linked to the previous threads, which are closed. I wanted to put forth their newer games, particularly Attack of the Buggles. I couldn't find that linked anywhere.
If this is deleted as a double, so be it.

I'm starting to think the games.metafilter.com is a great idea. Although Flash Element TD2 is awesome.

To be honest, I went to MetaFilter just now to get away from games, having just completed the Citadel Task Force in City of Heroes with the first Tanker I ever got to level thirty. It was awesome! I learned how to herd! Which won't make any sense to you nonCoH types but for me it was quite an accomplishment.

...this 'Casual Collective' thing is creeping me the fuck out. If I didn't know better I'd think whoever keeps posting this to MeFi is trying to assimilate everyone in MeFi, until we all start talking about "casual networking." Is that as creepy as it sounds? I'm getting Stepford Vibes from it.

...if you MeFites start being nice to one another and scheduling shuffleboard tournaments, I swear I'll move to FARK! Don't start scaring me!

*insert ominous music here*
This IS still here! The Casual Collective have assimilated Matt, Cortex, and Jessamyn! What are we gonna do!??
*insert lightning effects and thunder sound*
MetaFilter is being assimilated by the Casual Collective! It's the end of everything!

juv3nal: btw there's a metafilter group @ casualcollective
I was about to go join that and realized I was the group administrator. How the hell did that happen?

You told me to "take care" of that thing with the dead hooker in Reno. Said you didn't want to know the details...
