Jump King

Easy to pick up

A merciless platformer where you climb a huge tower using only precisely charged jumps, and a single misstep can send you tumbling far back down. Frustration and triumph sit very close together.

Arctic Adventure

Gameplay comes before story

A classic DOS platformer with 80 tricky levels where Nevada must get past ice patches, traps and snowmen. It blends precise platforming with level-based puzzle solving.

VVVVVV

Lots to discover

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.

Pitfall!

Easy to pick up

An Atari-era classic where you run and jump through the jungle as Pitfall Harry, dodging swinging vines, crocodiles and scorpions while racing to collect every treasure within 20 minutes.

Bloo Kid 2

Easy to pick up

You run, jump and swim through five large worlds of twelve levels each, in a classic retro platformer style. Pixel graphics and chiptune music set the mood, while brutal boss fights and plenty of hidden secrets reward careful exploration.

Ink

Gameplay comes before story

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.

Celeste Classic

Easy to pick up

The original tiny platformer made for the PICO-8 fantasy console: you climb a mountain with precise jumps and eight-direction dashes. Short screens and instant restarts make it tough yet compelling.

Mighty Bomb Jack

Easy to pick up

A classic arcade platformer where Jack leaps through a pyramid collecting bombs and dodging enemies. The palace rooms reuse the original Bomb Jack formula, while the action zones add power-ups and more variety.
