Brings what grabs you about Skybolt Zack: jumping and platforming, combat with precise timing as well as a demanding difficulty.

A fast rhythm platformer where the hero runs automatically and you jump, slide and kick through obstacles in time with the music. Retro pixel visuals and a driving chiptune soundtrack make it a demanding test of reflexes.

Mega Man 9

Jumping and platforming

Mega Man 9 deliberately returns to the 8-bit classics: tight run-and-gun platforming, bosses with weaknesses, and a free choice of stage order. It is demanding and rewards precise timing and memorization.

Mega Man 10

Jumping and platforming

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.

Berserk Boy

Jumping and platforming

You blast through fast, retro-styled 2D stages while switching between elemental forms like lightning, fire and ice. It channels classic Mega Man-style platforming with speedy, fluid action and boss fights.

Strider

Jumping and platforming

A fast arcade action platformer where you play ninja Hiryu, slashing with a plasma blade and flipping, climbing and sliding through a futuristic dystopia. Short, brisk and demanding.

Mutant Mudds

Challenging difficulty

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.

Gravity Circuit

Jumping and platforming

A fast 2D action platformer in the vein of Mega Man X, where Kai uses a grappling power and gravity abilities to hurl robots through stages and boss fights. Fluid combat, crisp pixel art and a driving soundtrack.

League of Evil

Challenging difficulty

A fast, pixel-art platformer where you play a bionic agent leaping and punching through trap-filled levels. Precise timing and quick retries deliver tongue-in-cheek arcade fun.
