Circa Infinity

Distinctive, stylised art style

Circa Infinity is a fast arcade platformer where you slip through rings of circular layers toward each level's core. Precisely timed jumps dodge the creatures within, and the pace escalates noticeably with depth.

Cyber Hook

Sci-fi setting

A fast 3D platformer set in a neon retrowave world, where you swing with a grappling hook, run along walls and slow time to race through short, speedrun-style levels. Precision and momentum matter far more than story or character growth.

Fotonica

Gameplay comes before story

A minimalist first-person arcade runner where you race at extreme speed through abstract, neon-like tracks. Easy to learn but hard to master, with eight tracks, an endless mode and split-screen races.

Mutant Mudds

Challenging difficulty

A tight retro platformer where you hover with a jetpack and blast mutant mud monsters while hopping between three depth layers in each level. Its pixel art and precise controls evoke the 8- and 16-bit era.

N++

Challenging difficulty

A minimalist, razor-precise physics platformer where you momentum-slide a ninja through thousands of short levels filled with mines and robots. Tight controls and punishing difficulty define the experience.

Octahedron

Distinctive, stylised art style

A psychedelic platformer where you conjure your own platforms mid-air and leap through a neon underground world to a pulsing electronic soundtrack. Precise timing and a tough challenge define the experience.

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.

Vectronom

Gameplay comes before story

You hop through abstract geometric levels whose platforms shift in time with the electronic soundtrack. You memorize patterns and use precise timing to dance past tricky obstacles.

Geometry Dash

Challenging difficulty

A brutally demanding one-button rhythm platformer where you guide a geometric icon through spike-filled levels synced to pulsing electronic music. Pixel-perfect timing, endless retries and a huge library of community-made levels define the experience.
