Lunark

Sci-fi setting

A cinematic 2D platformer in the spirit of classics like Another World and Flashback, with fluid rotoscope-style animation and a sci-fi tale spanning alien ruins and futuristic cities.

Another World: 20th Anniversary Edition

Distinctive, stylised art style

An iconic, minimalist sci-fi adventure: you are stranded on an alien planet as a scientist and survive without a word of dialogue through puzzles, precise jumps and desperate escapes. The anniversary edition adds reworked visuals that you can switch back to the original look at any time.

Bionic Bay

Lavish presentation

A physics-driven 2D platformer where a swap mechanic lets you trade places with objects to leap and puzzle your way through an eerie, alien sci-fi world. Precise timing and inventive puzzles define the experience.

Ghostrunner

Lavish presentation

A blisteringly fast first-person parkour slasher where one hit kills you and you wall-run, deflect bullets and slice enemies apart as a cyber-ninja. Constant death-and-retry loops set to a pounding synthwave score turn every arena into a precise reflex puzzle.

Heart of Darkness

Challenging difficulty

A dark cinematic platformer in the vein of Another World: as young Andy you venture into a nightmarish shadow realm to rescue your kidnapped dog. Lush hand-animated frames, an orchestral score and instant-death traps create a moody and punishing journey.

Solar Ash

Distinctive, stylised art style

You skate as Rei through a surreal black hole, scaling colossal bosses in a vivid, highly stylized world. Fast, fluid traversal and epic boss encounters are the heart of the game.

Eden Genesis

Challenging difficulty

A fast-paced cyberpunk platformer where you guide the cyborg Leah through neon-lit trials to free her corrupted mind. Precise timing and quick reflexes take center stage, backed by a story framing the challenges.

Lorn's Lure

Distinctive, stylised art style

An atmospheric first-person platformer where you play an android climbing through a vast, mysterious structure. Its unusual climbing controls and modernized retro 3D look give it a distinct identity.

Stela

Dark, serious atmosphere

Stela is a dark, cinematic platform adventure that guides a young woman through a collapsing, mysterious world. Chases, light puzzles and strong atmosphere tell the story almost without words.
