  • Challenging difficulty
  • Sci-fi setting
  • Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

A deliberately NES-style 8-bit run-and-gun platformer where you pick stages in any order, beat robot bosses and take their weapons. Tight controls and a demanding, old-school difficulty.

Mega Man X6

Challenging difficulty

A fast 2D action platformer with robot bosses, selectable stage order and swappable armor parts. Known for its steep, sometimes unfair difficulty and the Nightmare system.

Alien Soldier

Challenging difficulty

A frantic Treasure run-and-gun with a gauntlet of boss fights, fast gunplay and a flexible weapon loadout. It is extremely demanding, rewarding pattern memorization and precise reflexes.

Flinthook

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

A fast-paced action platformer with roguelike elements where you play a space pirate, swinging through randomly built ships with a grappling hook, shooting enemies and using slow motion to dodge danger.

Gravity Circuit

Sci-fi setting

A fast 2D action platformer in the vein of Mega Man X, where Kai uses a grappling power and gravity abilities to hurl robots through stages and boss fights. Fluid combat, crisp pixel art and a driving soundtrack.

Mighty No. 9

Sci-fi setting

A 2D run-and-gun platformer in the vein of classic Mega Man: as the robot Beck you jump through twelve stages, blast enemies and absorb their powers with a dash attack. It is widely regarded as an uneven execution of its promising concept.

Mega Man 8

Sci-fi setting

A classic run-and-gun platformer where Mega Man defeats eight robot masters and takes their weapons. The PlayStation entry brings a colorful cartoon look, animated cutscenes and varied stages with boss fights.
