Adventures of Pip

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

A retro platformer where you play a single-pixel hero who absorbs defeated enemies to switch between three forms. You use those forms for jumping challenges and light puzzles, backed by a catchy chiptune soundtrack.

Job the Leprechaun

Bright, upbeat tone

A small retro-style platformer in which you guide the leprechaun Job to rescue his friend Eri. Classic jumping action with light puzzle elements and a pixel look.

Ink

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

A fast, hardcore platformer in the vein of Super Meat Boy where the level is invisible and you reveal it by bumping into terrain and splashing paint with your double jump.

Escape Goat

Pure single-player experience

A tight puzzle platformer in which a goat wrongly jailed for witchcraft breaks out of prison using its horns, jumping skills and a magic mouse companion. Room-by-room puzzles with switches, blocks and traps are clever and charming in a pixel-art style.

Ambidextro

Jumping and platforming

An arcade platformer where you control two bodies at once as a royal wizard rescuing a prince and princess from a witch. The appeal lies in the tricky coordination of controlling both characters simultaneously.

Wunderling

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

You play a lowly villain minion who runs forward automatically and can only jump, so every move must be planned ahead. A humorous, precise platformer that cheekily flips the usual hero role.

Alice's Mom's Rescue

Bright, upbeat tone

A small pixel-art puzzle platformer in which Alice rescues her mother from a giant raven. Magic mushrooms change her size, which shapes both the puzzles and her abilities across 25 levels.
