Brings what grabs you about Berserk Boy: jumping and platforming, combat with precise timing as well as action-packed real-time combat.

A fast 2D platformer in the Sonic tradition with real combat, where dragon girl Lilac and her friends fight an alien invasion. Each character plays differently, backed by colorful stages, big boss fights and a strong soundtrack.

Gravity Circuit

Jumping and platforming

A fast 2D action platformer in the vein of Mega Man X, where Kai uses a grappling power and gravity abilities to hurl robots through stages and boss fights. Fluid combat, crisp pixel art and a driving soundtrack.

Mega Man 10

Jumping and platforming

A deliberately NES-style 8-bit run-and-gun platformer where you pick stages in any order, beat robot bosses and take their weapons. Tight controls and a demanding, old-school difficulty.

Ristar

Distinctive, stylised art style

A charming 16-bit platformer where a star hero uses stretchy arms to grab enemies, swing from objects and move through colorful worlds. It is short and polished, and known for its distinctive style and music.

Mega Man 8

Jumping and platforming

A classic run-and-gun platformer where Mega Man defeats eight robot masters and takes their weapons. The PlayStation entry brings a colorful cartoon look, animated cutscenes and varied stages with boss fights.

Sonic CD

Jumping and platforming

Sonic CD sends Sonic through time-travel zones where you alter the past and future to thwart Robotnik's schemes. Blistering speed, branching stages and a beloved soundtrack make it a standout in the series.

Noitu Love 2: Devolution

Action-packed real-time combat

A fast retro arcade beat 'em up with platforming, built around mouse-driven dash attacks. Seven varied pixel-art stages with boss fights deliver old-school fun.

Bit.Trip Runner

Distinctive, stylised art style

A fast rhythm platformer where the hero runs automatically and you jump, slide and kick through obstacles in time with the music. Retro pixel visuals and a driving chiptune soundtrack make it a demanding test of reflexes.

Mega Man 9

Jumping and platforming

Mega Man 9 deliberately returns to the 8-bit classics: tight run-and-gun platforming, bosses with weaknesses, and a free choice of stage order. It is demanding and rewards precise timing and memorization.
