One Finger Death Punch 2

Melee combat with weapons or fists

A lightning-fast stickman kung-fu brawler played with just two buttons, built around precise timing and reflexes. Fights feel like choreographed martial-arts movies as you chew through waves of enemies.

Lethal League Blaze

A blisteringly fast arcade brawler where a ball speeds up with every hit and is smashed into opponents to knock them out. It rewards timing and reflexes, wrapped in a bold comic look and driving beats.

KickBeat

A fast-paced 2D anime fighter with hand-drawn visuals, a high-energy rock soundtrack, and aggressive, combo-driven play. Precise execution and mind games define both the arcade mode and versus matches.

Ubermosh: Santicide

A fast top-down arcade shooter where you slash, shoot and deflect bullets through bloody, frantic levels. Short, punishing fights and a loud, over-the-top style make it a quick adrenaline rush.

Double Kick Heroes

Distinctive, stylised art style

Dead as Disco

Melee combat with weapons or fists

A neon-soaked beat-'em-up where every punch, kick and combo is synced to the music. As Charlie Disco you fight the villainous Idols to get the band back together.
