Strider

Challenging difficulty

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.

Duke Nukem

Action-packed real-time combat

The first Duke Nukem is a classic side-scrolling platformer with shooting, where Duke takes on Dr. Proton's robot army. A short retro arcade outing that introduces the wisecracking action hero.

Duke Nukem II

Action-packed real-time combat

A classic DOS platform shooter where Duke blasts his way through aliens and robots as a cocky action hero. Fast levels, hidden secrets and plenty of over-the-top attitude define the game.

Mega Man 10

Challenging difficulty

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.

Sonic the Hedgehog: Spinball

Challenging difficulty

Sonic becomes the pinball as you roll through Eggman's Veg-O-Fortress, completing table objectives and collecting the Chaos Emeralds. A quirky mix of platformer and pinball with tricky stages.

Sonic Adventure 2

Action-packed real-time combat

A fast-paced 3D platformer where you alternate between hero and dark-side characters, mixing high-speed runs, mech shooting sections and treasure hunting. Known for its dual good-versus-evil story campaign and iconic soundtrack.

Mini Ghost

Action-packed real-time combat

A short mini Metroidvania with the look and feel of 1980s MSX computers, serving as a small prequel to Ghost 1.0. It offers compact exploration and classic platforming action.

Blitz Breaker

Challenging difficulty

You guide the tiny robot Blitz through a hostile factory using nothing but jumps and four-directional air dashes. The minimal control scheme turns every stage into a satisfying test of precise timing.
