Super Meat Boy

Lots of humour

A brutally tough precision platformer with hundreds of bite-sized, sawblade-filled levels where instant respawns keep you hammering away until you nail every jump. Its gross-out humor and replays showing all your failed attempts at once make every victory feel earned.

Jump King

Lots of humour

A merciless platformer where you climb a huge tower using only precisely charged jumps, and a single misstep can send you tumbling far back down. Frustration and triumph sit very close together.

Super Rude Bear Resurrection

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

A tight, precise platformer where your corpses stay behind after each death and can be used as platforms or shields, letting the difficulty adapt to your comfort level. It features a grime soundtrack and a graffiti-flavored look.

Shobon no Action

Lots of humour

You guide a cat through a deliberately cruel Super Mario parody where nearly every expectation gets subverted. Its humor comes from traps you can only beat through trial and error, which makes the masocore experience so memorable.

Electronic Super Joy

Lots of humour

A brutally tough, tongue-in-cheek platformer driven by pulsing electronic music. Shifting gravity, rotating worlds and missile swarms demand precise timing and a high frustration tolerance.

Getting Over It with Bennett Foddy

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

You haul yourself up an enormous mountain of junk using only a hammer while stuck in a cauldron, and one slip can send you tumbling far back down. Bennett Foddy's narration turns the frustration into a strange, darkly funny meditation on perseverance.

Splasher

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

A fast 2D platformer where you wield a paint cannon whose colors create different effects like stickiness or bounce, helping you clear tricky levels and free the Splashers from a factory. Precise platforming and speed take center stage, with old-school difficulty and tongue-in-cheek humor.
