  • Sci-fi setting
  • Action-packed real-time combat
  • Dark, serious atmosphere

A third-person action game where you play agent Konoko in an anime-inspired cyberpunk future, blending martial arts melee with gunplay. It focuses on fast combo-based fights and a dark conspiracy story.

Astebreed

Sci-fi setting

A fast-paced anime-style mecha shooter that blends on-rails shooting sections with close-range hack-and-slash combat. You pilot a giant war machine in a war against a mechanical alien race.

Alien Soldier

Sci-fi setting

A frantic Treasure run-and-gun with a gauntlet of boss fights, fast gunplay and a flexible weapon loadout. It is extremely demanding, rewarding pattern memorization and precise reflexes.

Mega Man X7

Sci-fi setting

The first 3D outing of the Mega Man X series, where you switch between X-hunter heroes like Zero and Axl, running and gunning through eight selectable stages against Mavericks. It mixes 2D and 3D sections, though it is widely seen as divisive for its camera and controls.

Butcher

Dark, serious atmosphere

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.

Sprawl

Dark, serious atmosphere

A fast retro-style shooter set in a bleak cyberpunk megalopolis, where you play the super soldier Seven and wall-run, slide and blast your way through enemy hordes. Its blend of boomer-shooter pacing and neon-soaked atmosphere sets it apart.

Zone of the Enders: The 2nd Runner

Sci-fi setting

A blisteringly fast mecha action game where you pilot the Orbital Frame Jehuty, mixing melee, grabs and sub-weapons in spectacular aerial fights. Short and intense, with stylish presentation and memorable boss duels.
