  • Dread and tension
  • Jumping and platforming
  • Sci-fi setting

You play a shapeless alien creature breaking out of a research facility and hunting humans in a reverse horror twist. Its Metroidvania structure, fluid tentacle movement and unlockable abilities make growing and devouring everything in your path the core thrill.

Ghost Song

Dread and tension

An atmospheric 2D Metroidvania set on the lonely moon Lorian V, where you awaken as a Deadsuit, explore eerie caverns, gain new abilities and uncover cosmic secrets. Fluid combat and a moody sci-fi setting define the adventure.

AM2R: Return of Samus

Jumping and platforming

A fan-made remake of Metroid II that blends classic Samus Aran gameplay with modern controls, expanded areas and punchy boss fights. Hunting the Metroids across planet SR388 is atmospheric and rewards thorough exploration.

Axiom Verge

Jumping and platforming

A retro-styled Metroidvania in which a scientist wakes up in a strange biomechanical world. It thrives on a labyrinthine map, offbeat weapons and abilities, and the thrill of uncovering secrets.

Metroid Dread

Jumping and platforming

Samus Aran's 2D return pairs fluid, fast movement and precise melee counters with classic Metroidvania exploration. Tense escapes from the near-invincible E.M.M.I. robots and demanding boss fights keep the pressure high.

Axiom Verge 2

Jumping and platforming

A metroidvania with a large, interconnected world where new abilities and a drone unlock secrets and shortcuts. It continues the Axiom Verge universe but works fine without playing the original first.

Shadow Labyrinth

Jumping and platforming

A dark 2D Metroidvania spin-off in the PAC-MAN universe: as the Swordsman you explore an alien planet, devour enemies and grow into an apex predator. It blends fast sword combat with platforming and exploration.

Ghost 1.0

Jumping and platforming

A sci-fi metroidvania where you infiltrate a space station as an agent, switching between a robotic body and a digital ghost form to fight enemies and solve puzzles.

Outbuddies DX

Jumping and platforming

An atmospheric Metroidvania where you shoot your way through a sprawling, alien undersea city with the help of companion buddies. It focuses on discovery, backtracking and 2D action combat.
