A retro puzzle-platformer in the spirit of Lode Runner, featuring hot-seat co-op and a level editor for building your own stages.

Puddle

Puzzles and brain teasers

You control no character, only a pool of fluid, by tilting the environment. Use physics and the properties of water, oil, lava or nitroglycerin to carry as much liquid as possible through hazardous levels.

Roll Away

Puzzles and brain teasers

A 3D platform puzzler where you roll a beachball through levels, collecting keys to unlock exits while dealing with shifting gravity.

Spectraball

Puzzles and brain teasers

An indie platformer with puzzle elements where you roll, jump and launch a ball through varied environments. The focus is on skillful movement and finishing levels rather than story.

Steamroll

Puzzles and brain teasers

A puzzle adventure with minigolf-like mechanics: escape a collapsing mine by firing steam balls that form ramps, walls, trigger switches or blow obstacles away.

Aero's Quest

Puzzles and brain teasers

A fast-paced puzzle-platformer side scroller with over 100 colorful levels, where Aero solves puzzles to rescue Ariella from the evil Andraus.

Deleveled

Puzzles and brain teasers

A physics-based puzzle-platformer where you control two characters at once, each falling in the opposite direction. Getting through the tricky levels means making both work together.

Paganitzu

Puzzles and brain teasers

A classic puzzle-arcade adventure where you guide Alabama Smith through an Aztec pyramid full of traps and creatures. Thinking matters more than quick fingers.

OneShift

Puzzles and brain teasers

A puzzle platformer where you freeze time and shift between worlds to collect blue cubes. Only one world is active at a time, and a later world-rotation mechanic makes the puzzles increasingly tricky.

iO

Puzzles and brain teasers

A minimalist physics platformer where you control a ball and change its speed and weight by growing or shrinking it. Use momentum cleverly to finish levels as fast as possible and earn gold medals.
