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

A fast 2D arcade shooter in the vein of Pang, where exterminator Harry blasts swarms of bugs falling from above in a research facility. Short, intense levels, power-ups and a tongue-in-cheek tone make for quick fun, including co-op.

Groundskeeper 2

Sci-fi setting

A humorous pixel-art arcade shooter where you fend off aliens and robots from both sides of the screen, collect their drops, and use them to power the portal to the next area.

Necromonads

Sci-fi setting

A space shooter inspired by classic arcade games where you pilot a ship covering colonists as they flee to shelter. Captured colonists become infected and spread the plague, adding extra pressure.

Satellite Rush

Sci-fi setting

A pixel-art top-down shooter with roguelike elements: as an abducted office worker you fight in a space gladiator arena and must please the crowd to earn new items.

Zero Wing

Sci-fi setting

A classic side-scrolling shoot 'em up that became a cult name thanks to the infamous Mega Drive translation and the "All your base are belong to us" meme. Its signature twist is grabbing enemies with a tractor beam and using them as shields.

Explosionade

Sci-fi setting

A fast indie platform shooter where you pilot a mech and lob giant grenades to blow up aliens and their base. The action is explosive and tongue-in-cheek.

Madrobot X

Sci-fi setting

A classic retro shoot 'em up in pixel art where a robot escapes a mad scientist's lab with help from a fellow robot. The focus is on quick reflexes and arcade action.

Juanito Arcade Mayhem

Linear, curated structure

A humorous arcade shooter in the style of Super Pang, where Juanito in pyjamas defends retro game classics from an alien invasion. Fast, reflex-driven levels with plenty of nods to old games.
