  • Lots of humour
  • Strong, story-driven narrative
  • Pure single-player experience

A self-aware comedy parody that hops between genres, mocks traditional game design, and breaks the fourth wall by reacting to your actions and mistakes.

Stick it to the Man!

Strong, story-driven narrative

A quirky 2D paper-craft adventure where Ray, with a pink spaghetti arm sprouting from his brain, reads minds, places stickers and folds the world to solve humorous puzzles.

I am Bread

Bright, upbeat tone

You control a slice of bread, wrestling with deliberately clumsy physics-based controls as you climb through household environments to reach a toaster. The awkward handling delivers absurd humor and frustration in equal measure.

Yupitergrad

Bright, upbeat tone

A VR platformer set in a Soviet-flavored dieselpunk space, where you swing through zero gravity with grappling hooks. Quirky humor and tricky skill-based puzzles define the experience.

Horace

Strong, story-driven narrative

A story-driven pixel platformer about a robot who wants to be human, packed with references to 8- and 16-bit games and pop culture. It blends humor with surprisingly emotional moments.

The Narrator is a Dick

Bright, upbeat tone

You play a platformer where the narrator constantly sabotages you and mocks every misstep. Its sharp, snarky humor and running commentary are what make this small indie game stand out.

Pikuniku

Accessible and relaxed

A charming, absurdly funny puzzle-platformer where you play a little red creature who rolls, kicks and swings through a quirky world while uncovering a silly conspiracy. Its bold minimalist look and gentle difficulty make it very approachable.

On Rusty Trails

Strong, story-driven narrative

A quirky illustrative platformer where you play Elvis, changing your appearance with a shifty suit while the world reacts to your disguise. Offbeat humor and a distinctive hand-drawn look define it.
