Source of Madness

Dread and tension

A dark side-scrolling action roguelite set in a Lovecraft-inspired world where levels and creatures are procedurally generated. As an Acolyte you fight through a nightmarish, ever-changing odyssey.

The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth

Runs that play out differently every time

A punishing twin-stick roguelike where Isaac flees through randomly generated basement dungeons, collecting bizarre items that make every run different. This PSP demake brings the grotesque, dark gameplay to older handheld-style visuals.

Dead Cells

Melee combat with weapons or fists

A fast, fluid 2D roguelite with Metroidvania structure, where tight, punchy combat and a huge arsenal of weapons make every run feel different. Permanent unlocks and new routes give you a real sense of progress even as you die again and again.

Devil Spire

Melee combat with weapons or fists

A punishing first-person dungeon crawler with a retro pseudo-3D look, roguelite structure and dark fantasy mood, echoing King's Field and Heretic. Built by a tiny team, it focuses on tough combat and exploration.

Withering Rooms

Dread and tension

A 2.5D horror soulslike set in a Victorian mansion whose rooms reshuffle every night. You sneak, fight and explore through an oppressive, eerie atmosphere while collecting weapons, keys and magical artifacts.

Dungreed

Runs that play out differently every time

Dungreed blends fast 2D side-scrolling action with roguelite runs. You fight through a constantly changing dungeon, collecting weapons, spells and food to take on the evil lurking below.

Delver

Melee combat with weapons or fists

A first-person roguelike dungeon crawler with chunky pixel art: you fight through randomly generated dungeons, collect loot and potions, and hunt for the orb in the depths before probably dying.

UnderMine

Runs that play out differently every time

A pixel-art action roguelike where you play a miner descending ever deeper into a dangerous mine, collecting relics and blessings, and returning stronger after each death through permanent upgrades.

The Last Faith

Melee combat with weapons or fists

A dark, gothic pixel-art Metroidvania that blends Soulslike combat with sprawling interconnected exploration and plenty of weapon and build options. You fight through a decaying world ravaged by plague and a corrupt religion as Eric.
