One Finger Death Punch

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

A lightning-fast kung-fu brawler played with just two buttons: you click left or right to hit enemies at exactly the right moment. The result is fluid, movie-like fight choreography that feels like a rhythm and reflex test.

Porradaria Upgrade

Pixel art

You play as a mysterious ninja assassin in a 90s-style retro action game, drawn entirely in pixel art. It focuses on classic, straightforward action without much frills.

Street Fighter

Melee combat with weapons or fists

Capcom's original Street Fighter laid the groundwork for the genre with one-on-one duels against opponents from around the world, attack buttons and early command-input special moves. It is clunky and punishing, but historically important.

Double Dragon IV

Pixel art

A deliberately retro side-scrolling brawler in 8-bit style that directly follows Double Dragon II. It offers classic, uncompromising arcade beat 'em up action, including two-player co-op.

Double Dragon

Melee combat with weapons or fists

The arcade classic that helped define the beat 'em up genre: punch, kick and grapple your way through waves of street gang thugs, ideally with a friend in co-op, to rescue a kidnapped girlfriend.

Thunder Ray

Pixel art

A retro-style arcade boxing game where you punch your way through the galaxy's best fighters to become the greatest champion of the universe. Fast, bloody bouts are the focus.
