Brings what grabs you about Eryi's Action: jumping and platforming, pixel art as well as a demanding difficulty.

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.

Splodey

Jumping and platforming

A pixel-art platformer with no jump button: you launch yourself through levels using explosive potions, demanding precise timing and creative thinking.

Shobon no Action

Jumping and platforming

Super Rude Bear Resurrection

Jumping and platforming

A tight, precise platformer where your corpses stay behind after each death and can be used as platforms or shields, letting the difficulty adapt to your comfort level. It features a grime soundtrack and a graffiti-flavored look.
