Liberated

Vast, open spaces

Liberated is a comic-book styled blend of side-scrolling action and interactive graphic novel, set in a dystopian surveillance state. Its story of resistance and control takes center stage, presented in striking high-contrast panels.

CortexGear:AngryDroids

Shooting and gunplay

A sci-fi run-and-gun shooter in a 3D sidescroller style where you use mouse and keyboard together to fight hostile droids. It adds an emotional story, but the focus is on fast action.

Unto the End

Emotional impact

You wander a harsh, indifferent wilderness alone, hunting the creature that took everything from you. Its painterly 2D visuals and unforgiving combat, where parries and precise timing decide every encounter, make this melancholic revenge story hit hard.

Creepy Road

Shooting and gunplay

You guide Flint Trucker with a shotgun through a deranged world of mutant animals and lunatics blocking his way home. Its dark humor and over-the-top action make this indie shooter stand out.

Half-Life: Source

Shooting and gunplay

The Source engine version of the shooter classic: as scientist Gordon Freeman you fight through aliens and soldiers after an experiment goes wrong at Black Mesa. Updated lighting, water and physics refresh the look, but it remains the tightly scripted, linear original.

Abuse

Shooting and gunplay

A 1996 side-scrolling shooter where you move with the keyboard and aim freely with the mouse. You battle swarms of mutants and solve simple switch puzzles across dark sci-fi levels.

In Sound Mind

Emotional impact

A first-person psychological horror where you dive into the nightmares and memories of a therapist's patients. Inventive environmental puzzles, unusual boss fights and a standout original soundtrack define the experience.
