Carrion

Pixel art

You play a shapeless alien creature breaking out of a research facility and hunting humans in a reverse horror twist. Its Metroidvania structure, fluid tentacle movement and unlockable abilities make growing and devouring everything in your path the core thrill.

The End Is Nigh

Jumping and platforming

A brutally hard precision platformer by Edmund McMillen where you play Ash, hopping through a ruined world and dying countless times in short, tricky screens. Dark humor and a huge map packed with hidden collectibles define the experience.

Haak

Jumping and platforming

Haak is a pixel-art Metroidvania platformer set in a post-apocalyptic wasteland, where you unlock new abilities to explore hidden corners of the world, fight enemies and uncover its secrets.

The Final Station

Resources and survival

An atmospheric 2D side-scroller where you ride a train through a collapsing world, scavenge stations for supplies, fight off the infected, and keep your passengers alive. The shift between tense, ammo-scarce station raids and quiet train upkeep creates a bleak, oppressive mood.

Shinsekai: Into the Depths

Resources and survival

As a lone aquanaut you explore a flooded, ice-covered ocean world that has swallowed your home, following a mysterious mechanical creature ever deeper. Its atmosphere and the slow discovery of what remains of humanity are the heart of the experience.

Mio: Memories in Orbit

Lots to discover

A gorgeous painterly 2.5D metroidvania where you guide the little robot Mio through a vast decaying spaceship, unlocking grapple, glide and climbing abilities and fighting rogue machines in agile aerial combat. A modifier slot system lets you tune your build, while losing currency on death keeps the tension up.

I Am Alive

Resources and survival

A grim survival adventure set in a dust-shrouded ruined city where limited stamina, scarce resources and risky climbing define the experience. Instead of constant gunplay it relies on bluffing with an empty weapon and tension while searching for the hero's family.
