This is actually really cool of Google. They do some fun things with their doodles, and this time they paid respects to Jerry Lawson on his birthday. For those who don't know, Jerry Lawson is kind of a big reason we have video games, he's one of the fathers of modern gaming. He helped work on the very first video game console that used carts, that being the Fairchild Channel F video game console. Can't say I ever heard of it, but I think I remember him being responsible for making the carts, and that's where he is more known for.
There looks to be 5 games, all made by other developers. They're all simple platformers, but the ones I did play were kinda fun.
Go to Google.com and click on the doodle to access the games. I wonder if they will put this on another page to play later, because I kinda want to play the other games.
You can also edit the games if you want. Which is a cool touch.
