  • Fantasy setting
  • Action-packed real-time combat
  • Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

A classic 2D pixel-art action platformer where you play the priestess Momo through mostly linear levels, collecting items and uncovering secrets. It relies on quick dodging and tough boss fights, and you don't need to know the earlier games.

Onikira: Demon Killer

Fantasy setting

A 2D platformer that blends the combo-heavy combat of 3D beat 'em ups like Ninja Gaiden with wall jumps, air juggles and switching between weapons such as the katana and naginata. It is set in a mythical feudal Japan.

Angvik

Challenging difficulty

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.

Wings of Vi

Fantasy setting

A demanding 2D action platformer where you play the angel Vi, leaping and fighting through perilous worlds to stop the freed demon lord Jeh'oul. Precise jumping and quick reactions are the core of the experience.

Momodora

Fantasy setting

The first, deliberately simple entry in the Momodora series: a short, punchy arcade-style 2D action platformer with pixel art. It is rough and unpolished but challenging.

Dwarf Journey

Fantasy setting

An action roguelite platformer with randomly generated levels where you play a dwarf, fight enemies, assemble rune builds and forge gear. The quest for immortality drives the journey.
