Dropsy

Distinctive, stylised art style

You play Dawn, a pampered house cat whose place at home is stolen by a jealous stray look-alike. It is a narrative, emotional tale about loneliness and belonging told from a cat's point of view.

Last Time I Saw You

Strong, story-driven narrative

A narrative coming-of-age adventure set in late-80s Japan, where Ayumi navigates first love, self-discovery and a curse hanging over his hometown. The focus is on characters and story rather than combat.

Kentucky Route Zero

Strong, story-driven narrative

A magical realist adventure about a secret highway beneath Kentucky, putting atmosphere, characters and poetic storytelling ahead of puzzles or skill challenges. Its minimalist, theatrical look and sound make it a singular experience.

Until Then

Strong, story-driven narrative

A narrative adventure about a Filipino high schooler's everyday life in Manila, with smartphone chats, friendships and romance that grows into an emotional mystery. Moody 2D/3D visuals and a strong soundtrack carry the story.
