Mini Ghost

Jumping and platforming

A short mini Metroidvania with the look and feel of 1980s MSX computers, serving as a small prequel to Ghost 1.0. It offers compact exploration and classic platforming action.

Haydee

You explore a sci-fi world in the style of old-school Metroidvanias, combining third-person shooting and demanding platforming. Its blend of modern action with classic backtracking and puzzles is what makes it stand out.

The Way

Jumping and platforming

Axiom Verge

Jumping and platforming

A retro-styled Metroidvania in which a scientist wakes up in a strange biomechanical world. It thrives on a labyrinthine map, offbeat weapons and abilities, and the thrill of uncovering secrets.

VVVVVV

Jumping and platforming

A tough retro platformer where you can't jump but instead flip gravity to switch between floor and ceiling. Brutally precise rooms, generous checkpoints and a pounding chiptune soundtrack make it a cult classic.

DeadCore

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

DeadCore is a fast first-person platformer with guns, in which you climb a massive, fog-shrouded tower. Precise jumping, timing and speedrun appeal take center stage, wrapped in a dreamlike sci-fi atmosphere.

Gateways

Jumping and platforming

A 2D puzzle-platformer set in an inventor's lab, where you use gateway guns to open paths through walls. Portal-style puzzles meet Metroidvania-style exploration and unlockable abilities.
