  • Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)
  • Gameplay comes before story
  • Challenging difficulty

A small indie arcade game where you dodge obstacles and projectiles while grabbing points before they vanish. It's all about chasing a high score and beating your friends on the leaderboard.

Approaching Blocks

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

You dodge approaching blocks and must survive 100 seconds to clear each level. When you fail, you get shown foreign-language words to learn, and from level three on it gets tough.

Save Dash

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

A hardcore one-touch running game originally built for mobile, where precise timing decides everything. Short, demanding runs are the core of the experience.

Pivvot

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

Pivvot is a minimalist reflex game where you guide a pivoting object down a winding path while dodging obstacles in split seconds. Quick decisions and timing matter far more than story or progression.

Pixel Car

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

You steer two cars at once on the same screen, grabbing bonuses while dodging obstacles on both lanes. A simple pixel-style test of reflexes and coordination.

Swiftly

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

A minimalist but punishing platformer with simple rules that demands precise jumps and quick reflexes. Expect plenty of retries before you conquer the levels.

River Raid

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

A classic 1982 arcade shooter where you fly a jet up a river non-stop, blowing up bridges while managing fuel and dodging enemies. Simple premise with fast, reflex-driven play.

Quickerflak

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

An extremely short top-down action minigame you can finish in about a minute. It's all about fast reflexes and time pressure in a retro style.

Crazy Climber

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

An early 1980 arcade classic where you work a climber's arms with two joysticks to scale a skyscraper while dodging falling hazards. It is seen as a forerunner of the platformer genre.

Hyper Box

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

You race through short platforming levels with under 30 seconds on the clock, using your box's rotation to your advantage. It's tough, but rewarding as you get better.
