Tin Can

Linear, curated structure

You play an untrained technician stuck in a cramped escape pod, learning its systems through manuals and trial and error to stay alive in space. The appeal is tense, claustrophobic problem-solving under pressure.

Thumper

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

Thumper is a brutal rhythm game where you pilot a space beetle down a hurtling, hellish track with just one stick and one button. Precise timing, hypnotic sound design and an oppressive style make for an intense, unrelenting experience.

Black Hole Hazard

Sci-fi setting

You play Dr. Albert floating in space, steering yourself with the recoil of your laser gun through distorted gravity. The unusual control scheme demands skill and clever thinking as you uncover a sci-fi mystery.

Arcade Moonlander

Sci-fi setting

An arcade-style lunar lander where you steer a craft with limited fuel and must touch down gently and upright on the landing pad. Satellites and space worms add extra hazards.

Star Advent

Sci-fi setting

A small indie space adventure where you make your way through space and cannot afford any mistakes. Little is known about the details, but it seems to emphasize skill and precision.

Spinning Around

Gameplay comes before story

A simple arcade game where you steer your spaceship quickly and precisely through gates. It purely tests your reflexes, with no story or frills.

TIS-100

Linear, curated structure

A programming puzzler where you write assembly-style code for a broken, fictional computer to fix its nodes. Dry, demanding and all about tinkering and optimizing solutions.

Solar Flux

Sci-fi setting

A challenging space puzzle-action game where you pilot a nimble ship to gather plasma and revive dying suns while dodging flares, asteroids and supernovae. Over 80 missions ramp up the difficulty gradually.
