  • Sci-fi setting
  • Gameplay comes before story
  • Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

A retro arcade shooter in the spirit of the classics, where you guide a ship with scarce fuel through twenty increasingly tough levels to the landing pad. Every move and shot burns fuel, which you replenish by blowing up fuel dumps.

Point Perfect

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

A mouse-driven arcade game where you guide your cursor through a procedurally generated gauntlet of retro enemies, drawing boxes around foes so the mothership can shoot them down. It demands precise reflexes and a steady hand.

Bzzzt

Challenging difficulty

A fast-paced, retro-inspired 2D platformer in which you play the AI ZX8000 in a robot body, mastering test chambers full of deadly traps.

Crashed Lander

Sci-fi setting

An arcade skill game in the vein of Lunar Lander and Space Taxi: you fly your craft against gravity from pad to pad, chasing best times while balancing speed against control.

Blue Rider

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

An arcade shooter where you fight to survive as the Blue Rider in a valley flooded with bullets. It nods to classic console heroes and leans on fast reflexes.

Run or Die

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

A fast-paced endless runner built around movement abilities and a huge ion cannon, set in a hazardous city that changes with each run. Quick reflexes and split-second decisions are the core of the experience.

Madrobot X

Sci-fi setting

A classic retro shoot 'em up in pixel art where a robot escapes a mad scientist's lab with help from a fellow robot. The focus is on quick reflexes and arcade action.

Galaga

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

A classic arcade shooter where you pilot a fighter along the bottom of the screen and blast waves of insect-like aliens. The tractor beam that captures your ship, which you can rescue for double firepower, gives it its hook.

Captain Kaon

Sci-fi setting

A retro twin-stick shooter with gravity-based flight, where you pilot a gunship across the solar system against the villainous Doctor Quantex. Its Amiga-inspired pixel art and tight controls deliver old-school arcade nostalgia.

Necromonads

Sci-fi setting

A space shooter inspired by classic arcade games where you pilot a ship covering colonists as they flee to shelter. Captured colonists become infected and spread the plague, adding extra pressure.
