  • Challenging difficulty
  • Action-packed real-time combat
  • Lots of humour

A fast bullet-hell first-person shooter with randomly generated towers, huge bosses, and absurdly stackable weapons and upgrades. Its roguelike structure makes every run feel different.

Flinthook

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

A fast-paced action platformer with roguelike elements where you play a space pirate, swinging through randomly built ships with a grappling hook, shooting enemies and using slow motion to dodge danger.

Agent 64: Spies Never Die

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

A retro first-person shooter modeled on 90s console classics, mixing spy action, mission objectives and some stealth. Its deliberately chunky N64-era look is a nostalgic nod to games like GoldenEye.

Butcher

Sci-fi setting

A fast, extremely gory 2D pixel-art shooter where you play a cyborg blasting through grim levels, killing enemies with chainsaws, shotguns or environmental hazards. A throwback to early 90s action games.

Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun 2

Sci-fi setting

A fast, brutal retro-style FPS set in the Warhammer 40,000 universe, where you play as a Space Marine or Sister of Battle and mow down hordes of heretics with heavy weapons. The sequel adds more enemies, more weapons and new ways to purge foes.
