Escape Goat

Pure single-player experience

A tight puzzle platformer in which a goat wrongly jailed for witchcraft breaks out of prison using its horns, jumping skills and a magic mouse companion. Room-by-room puzzles with switches, blocks and traps are clever and charming in a pixel-art style.

Max & the Magic Marker

Jumping and platforming

You literally redraw Max's world with his magic marker to stop a rampaging monster. Its appeal lies in reshaping each level on the fly while you jump through classic 2D platforming.

Try Again

Bright, upbeat tone

You play Benny, a test character stuck in an unfinished game on her last day before being replaced. Navigating a chaotic development facility, you platform and dodge your way toward defying the script and becoming the lead, with plenty of self-aware humor about game-dev chaos.

Super Lemonade Factory

Distinctive, stylised art style

A charming pixel-art platformer where you switch between two characters with different abilities to get through the rooms of a lemonade factory. Platforming skill and puzzle-solving mix with quirky characters and a small post-war story.

The Narrator is a Dick

Distinctive, stylised art style

You play a platformer where the narrator constantly sabotages you and mocks every misstep. Its sharp, snarky humor and running commentary are what make this small indie game stand out.

Escape Goat 2

Distinctive, stylised art style

A puzzle platformer where a goat hops and thinks its way through a huge fortress full of traps, using switches, machinery and a helpful mouse. Rooms are cleverly designed, with quirky humor and hidden secrets.

Fever Meme

Distinctive, stylised art style

A self-aware comedy parody that hops between genres, mocks traditional game design, and breaks the fourth wall by reacting to your actions and mistakes.

I am Bread

Bright, upbeat tone

You control a slice of bread, wrestling with deliberately clumsy physics-based controls as you climb through household environments to reach a toaster. The awkward handling delivers absurd humor and frustration in equal measure.
