  • Sci-fi setting
  • Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)
  • Strong, story-driven narrative

An iconic, minimalist sci-fi adventure: you are stranded on an alien planet as a scientist and survive without a word of dialogue through puzzles, precise jumps and desperate escapes. The anniversary edition adds reworked visuals that you can switch back to the original look at any time.

Flashback

Strong, story-driven narrative

Flashback is the remake of the 1992 classic: a cinematic sci-fi platformer with fluid, rotoscoped-style animation, hand-drawn backdrops and an agent trying to recover his lost memory. Precise jumping, shooting and light puzzles define the experience.

The Way

Strong, story-driven narrative

A pixel-art sci-fi platformer in the vein of Another World and Flashback: you travel to an alien planet seeking a way to bring a loved one back to life. Puzzles, platforming and exploration form the core.

Replaced

Lavish presentation

A striking 2.5D pixel-art platformer set in a dystopian alternate 1980s, where you play an AI trapped in a human body. Cinematic platforming meets fluid free-flow combat.

Eden Genesis

Strong, story-driven narrative

A fast-paced cyberpunk platformer where you guide the cyborg Leah through neon-lit trials to free her corrupted mind. Precise timing and quick reflexes take center stage, backed by a story framing the challenges.

Sanabi

Lavish presentation

A fast action-platformer where you play a veteran with a grappling prosthetic arm, swinging through a dystopian city, dodging bullets and taking down enemies. Fluid swinging movement is paired with a dark, stylish presentation.

The Cub

Lavish presentation

A wild child grows up among the ruins of humanity in a hand-painted, old-school platformer inspired by classic Sega games. Moody synth-tinged music and quietly told stories give this Jungle Book-style post-apocalypse a melancholic atmosphere.

Flashback 2

Pure single-player experience

A sequel to the retro classic Flashback: as Conrad you battle the alien Morphs and search for your abducted friend Ian in a sci-fi side-scroller. It mixes platforming, shooting and light puzzles in a classic style.

DeadCore

Focus on a single character

DeadCore is a fast first-person platformer with guns, in which you climb a massive, fog-shrouded tower. Precise jumping, timing and speedrun appeal take center stage, wrapped in a dreamlike sci-fi atmosphere.

Magnetic By Nature

Distinctive, stylised art style

A fast-paced indie platformer where you play the last robot and use magnetism to swing through forgotten ruins instead of hopping across traditional platforms. Fluid movement, split-second decisions and light puzzles define it.
