Hell of an Office

Challenging difficulty

A fast first-person vertical platformer where you sprint, dash and rocket-jump up a hellish office while lava keeps rising. It's all about speed, precision and momentum.

Super Meat Boy

Challenging difficulty

A brutally tough precision platformer with hundreds of bite-sized, sawblade-filled levels where instant respawns keep you hammering away until you nail every jump. Its gross-out humor and replays showing all your failed attempts at once make every victory feel earned.

Seum: Speedrunners from Hell

Challenging difficulty

A fast first-person platformer with a heavy metal hell vibe, focused on perfect movement, precise jumps and chasing best times in short arenas. It rewards reflexes and retrying until every millisecond counts.

Jump King

Challenging difficulty

A merciless platformer where you climb a huge tower using only precisely charged jumps, and a single misstep can send you tumbling far back down. Frustration and triumph sit very close together.

Spark the Electric Jester 2

Fantasy setting

You play as Fark in his first three-dimensional outing, racing through fast platforming stages and boss fights where precise parrying matters. Fully animated cutscenes carry the search for his true identity forward with a playful, energetic tone.

Pizza Tower

Distinctive, stylised art style

A frantic, chaotic 2D platformer starring the manic pizza chef Peppino, built around momentum-based movement, score chasing and wildly hand-drawn animation. Its zany humor and driving soundtrack turn every level into a spectacle.

Pumpkin Jack

Fantasy setting

A humorous Halloween-flavored 3D platformer where you play as the pumpkin-headed Jack serving the forces of evil. Varied levels, light combat and boss fights make for a short, charmingly spooky ride.

Demon Turf

Distinctive, stylised art style

A snappy, cheeky 3D platformer where you play the demon Beebz, using momentum-based movement, punches and self-placed checkpoints to race through tricky levels on the road to becoming Demon Queen.

Shovel Knight

Fantasy setting

A lovingly crafted NES-style platformer where a shovel-wielding knight pogo-bounces through varied stages, digs up treasure and battles a colorful cast of rival knights. Tight controls, charming humor and a superb chiptune soundtrack make it a modern classic.
