World Of Padman Portable:
In this funny first person shooter very small people doing battle. The levels are made op of rooms where you jump on bookshelves, stacks of books, tables, chairs etc. and collect ammo and weapons for your funny weapons, among Baloony (a water balloon shooter) and killer ducks. Very funny and cool looking levels to play.
About the Launcher:
This distribution uses my own Generic Portable Launcher (GPL) that can be configured through an external INI file with the same name. The launcher copies the config file from the Data\Settings folder on start and back after exiting the game so your configuration file will be backed up using PortableAppsBackup functionality. The Launcher's source is included so you might take a peek inside.
Size:
(563MB setup, 64MB patch, 613MB Installed)
Install:
- Unzip the Portable Launcher package into your PortableApps folder

Wow, that is a very fun game! Thanks for that one.
I can't believe there has not been more talk about this game. It is really fun, and has great graphics. You can play single player (bots) or on-line.
It appears you no longer have to download the patch, just the full program. There are 4 additional maps (map pack) that can be downloaded (recommended, they are very nice). The guy who designed this game is Ente. What an exceptional artist.
LOGAN, I tried your launcher and it works great. Thanks for taking the time to build that!

Things have got to get better, they can't get worse, or can they?
Very true, the game is big.
And the game might download addition content over time. But nowadays with thumb drives of 4GB and even 8GB gives you more than enough space to install the full PAM suite and this game and still have space to spare
Also there are more and more external USB hard drives.
And many people just have portable apps on their PC's hard drives.
But indeed these games are very big so people with smaller Flash Drives might not be interested in a Portable version. Maybe when they upgrade
neener neener... I just bought a brand new 8Gb Kingston Data Traveler (100 bugs in Panama's Free Zone area) and a 120 Gb Memorex Portable Hard Drive (129 $ same place) so space is not a problem anymore...
Who cares about 613 Mb with 120 Gb of space?
If a packet hits a pocket on a socket on a port,
and the bus is interrupted as a very last resort,
and the address of the memory makes your floppy disk abort,
then the socket packet pocket has an error to report
Yeah this game is quite original
Patch IS available though: Windows Full Installer v1.1 and Windows Patch Installer v1.2

PAM (and of course not the backup utility) but PStart... still works?

Dude, it works even without any menu by just double clicking the launcher exe
I just downloaded and will try it...

And just to update the actual installed size: it is 608MB including the extra maps (map pack). I have it on an 8GB drive so size is no problem at all. Not to mention the 16GB and 32GB drives are coming down in price. 608MB still fits on one CD too.
Been trying to download most of your games andthen saw the Generic launcher but none of them connect. Think there is a problem with your hosts
