Brings what grabs you about Wayward Sky: puzzles to figure out, a sci-fi setting as well as jumping and platforming.

An atmospheric puzzle platformer where you create clones of yourself and swap between them to solve puzzles on an abandoned space station. Its handcrafted, claustrophobic look and philosophical story about consciousness and identity set it apart.

Viewfinder

Distinctive, stylised art style

You snap photos with an instant camera and then place them in the world, turning the images into real paths, bridges and platforms. The result is a series of inventive perspective puzzles in a stylish sci-fi setting.

The Way

Jumping and platforming

A pixel-art sci-fi platformer in the vein of Another World and Flashback: you travel to an alien planet seeking a way to bring a loved one back to life. Puzzles, platforming and exploration form the core.

ElecHead

Jumping and platforming

You play Elec, a short-circuiting robot who charges whatever it touches, and use that ability to solve clever puzzles and navigate platforming sections. The appeal lies in experimenting with electricity and the environment in a compact pixel-art adventure.

Lifeless Planet

Pure single-player experience

An atmospheric sci-fi adventure where you play a lone astronaut on a seemingly abandoned planet, using a jetpack and robotic arm through platforming and puzzles while uncovering the mystery of earlier human visitors.

Boor

Jumping and platforming

You guide a girl who can multiply herself through a strange but beautiful 2D world. Her clones are the key to puzzles that block the way in this platformer.

Planet of Lana

Jumping and platforming

An atmospheric puzzle-platformer in which a young girl and her animal companion Mogo travel through a painterly sci-fi world to save their home. It focuses on wordless, emotional storytelling, a moving soundtrack and gentle puzzles built around using your companion's abilities.

Full Void

Jumping and platforming

You play a young teenager in a dystopian future ruled by a rogue AI, where only children remain free. Puzzles and obstacles are wrapped in a bleak, cinematic story and a tense atmosphere, presented in pixel art with a few jump scares.

Lunark

Distinctive, stylised art style

A cinematic 2D platformer in the spirit of classics like Another World and Flashback, with fluid rotoscope-style animation and a sci-fi tale spanning alien ruins and futuristic cities.
