  • Challenging difficulty

A tough 2D platformer where every death passes the sword to an heir with random, often silly traits like colorblindness or gigantism, who then storms the shifting castle again. Gold you collect upgrades the family manor for good, so each generation gets a little stronger.

Dungreed

Runs that play out differently every time

Dungreed blends fast 2D side-scrolling action with roguelite runs. You fight through a constantly changing dungeon, collecting weapons, spells and food to take on the evil lurking below.

Bard's Gold

Runs that play out differently every time

A tough retro pixel platformer where you play a bard hunting for the key and door in randomly assembled levels. There is no tutorial, so you figure out the mechanics yourself and buy upgrades between runs.

Angvik

Runs that play out differently every time

An action platformer where you take up your father's gear to retake a castle seized by a barbarian. You get only one life and death is permanent, so every step has to be made with care.

Rising Hell

Runs that play out differently every time

A vertical action roguelike platformer in pixel art with a heavy-metal attitude, where you climb out of procedurally generated hell as the sinner Arok. Unlockable characters and talents keep each run fresh.

Super House of Dead Ninjas

Runs that play out differently every time

A fast 2D action-platformer where you plunge down a randomly generated tower as a crimson ninja, cutting through enemies with blades, shurikens and special attacks. Short, frantic runs and a retro look give it an arcade feel.

Caveblazers

Runs that play out differently every time

A brutal pixel-art roguelike platformer where you fight through procedurally generated caves full of orcs and goblins, collecting weapons and magic items and dying often in gory ways.

Dead Cells

Runs that play out differently every time

A fast, fluid 2D roguelite with Metroidvania structure, where tight, punchy combat and a huge arsenal of weapons make every run feel different. Permanent unlocks and new routes give you a real sense of progress even as you die again and again.

Princess.Loot.Pixel.Again

Runs that play out differently every time

You fight your way up the floors of a dark tower in this pixel platformer, chaining combos and special strikes. Every death regenerates the whole castle, so each run feels fresh but unforgiving.
