Mega Man 10

Jumping and platforming

A deliberately NES-style 8-bit run-and-gun platformer where you pick stages in any order, beat robot bosses and take their weapons. Tight controls and a demanding, old-school difficulty.

Mega Man 9

Jumping and platforming

Mega Man 9 deliberately returns to the 8-bit classics: tight run-and-gun platforming, bosses with weaknesses, and a free choice of stage order. It is demanding and rewards precise timing and memorization.

Duke Nukem II

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

A classic DOS platform shooter where Duke blasts his way through aliens and robots as a cocky action hero. Fast levels, hidden secrets and plenty of over-the-top attitude define the game.

Mutant Mudds

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

A tight retro platformer where you hover with a jetpack and blast mutant mud monsters while hopping between three depth layers in each level. Its pixel art and precise controls evoke the 8- and 16-bit era.

Blitz Breaker

Jumping and platforming

You guide the tiny robot Blitz through a hostile factory using nothing but jumps and four-directional air dashes. The minimal control scheme turns every stage into a satisfying test of precise timing.

I Wanna Be the Guy

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

A notoriously brutal 2D platformer where nearly everything is designed to kill you through trial and error. Packed with retro references, cruel traps and dark humor, it became a cult classic of the genre.

Duke Nukem

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

The first Duke Nukem is a classic side-scrolling platformer with shooting, where Duke takes on Dr. Proton's robot army. A short retro arcade outing that introduces the wisecracking action hero.
