Intrusion 2

Sci-fi setting

A fast-paced sci-fi action platformer in the spirit of classic 16-bit side-scrollers, mixing quick shooting with modern physics and animation. You fight through the facilities of a hostile military corporation on a remote planet.

Duke Nukem II

Sci-fi setting

A classic DOS platform shooter where Duke blasts his way through aliens and robots as a cocky action hero. Fast levels, hidden secrets and plenty of over-the-top attitude define the game.

Mega Man 10

Sci-fi setting

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.

Super Cyborg

Shooting and gunplay

An old-school, relentless run-and-gun shooter in the vein of 90s classics: as an elite cyborg you blast through aliens on a mysterious island. Fast action and steep challenge are the focus.

Duke Nukem

Shooting and gunplay

The first Duke Nukem is a classic side-scrolling platformer with shooting, where Duke takes on Dr. Proton's robot army. A short retro arcade outing that introduces the wisecracking action hero.

Mutant Mudds

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

A tight retro platformer where you hover with a jetpack and blast mutant mud monsters while hopping between three depth layers in each level. Its pixel art and precise controls evoke the 8- and 16-bit era.

Muri

Sci-fi setting

A retro run-and-gun platformer styled after 80s DOS games, where a woman in a powerful armor suit investigates why Mars vanished. Gameplay shifts between fast shooting action and more tactical combat.
