Brings what grabs you about Have a Nice Death: runs that differ every time, melee combat with weapons or fists and deep character progression.

A fast-paced 2D action platformer with roguelike runs where you play as a tiny skeleton who swaps skulls to change fighting styles while slaying the human heroes who captured your king.

Rogue Legacy 2

Lots of humour

A fast roguelite platformer where you play through generations of a hero family, each heir with unique traits and classes. Permanent manor upgrades make every death feed into a stronger next run.

Rogue Legacy

Lots of humour

A tough 2D platformer where every death passes the sword to an heir with random, often silly traits like colorblindness or gigantism, who then storms the shifting castle again. Gold you collect upgrades the family manor for good, so each generation gets a little stronger.

Astral Ascent

Lavish presentation

A fast-paced 2D action roguelite where you pick one of four heroes and take on the twelve Zodiac bosses. Quick combat, plenty of spells and allies keep each run varied.

Dead Cells

Lavish presentation

A fast, fluid 2D roguelite with Metroidvania structure, where tight, punchy combat and a huge arsenal of weapons make every run feel different. Permanent unlocks and new routes give you a real sense of progress even as you die again and again.

Rising Hell

Strong character progression

A vertical action roguelike platformer in pixel art with a heavy-metal attitude, where you climb out of procedurally generated hell as the sinner Arok. Unlockable characters and talents keep each run fresh.

Knightmare Tower

Lots of humour

A frantic arcade action game where a knight slashes upward through tower ceilings, rescues princesses and outruns rising lava. Upgrades bought between runs make each new attempt stronger.

Princess.Loot.Pixel.Again

Distinctive, stylised art style

You fight your way up the floors of a dark tower in this pixel platformer, chaining combos and special strikes. Every death regenerates the whole castle, so each run feels fresh but unforgiving.
