  • Jumping and platforming

  • Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

A pixel-art platformer where you guide the slime-like MO through hazardous levels full of traps and strange enemies. Precise jumping and the character's special abilities drive the challenge.

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.

Ink

Linear, curated structure

A fast, hardcore platformer in the vein of Super Meat Boy where the level is invisible and you reveal it by bumping into terrain and splashing paint with your double jump.

Escape Goat 2

Pure single-player experience

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.

Recursed

Pure single-player experience

A clever puzzle-platformer where rooms are also items: you pick up, copy and nest them recursively to reach the exit. The mind-bending mechanic constantly forces you to rethink how space works.

Ambidextro

Jumping and platforming

An arcade platformer where you control two bodies at once as a royal wizard rescuing a prince and princess from a witch. The appeal lies in the tricky coordination of controlling both characters simultaneously.

Qomp

Jumping and platforming

You guide a bouncing ball using just one button through tricky platforming and puzzle sections, even taking down bosses. The minimalist concept delivers surprising variety and skill-testing moments.
