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.

MO:Astray

Challenging difficulty

A pixel-art platformer where you guide the slime-like MO through hazardous levels full of traps and strange enemies. Precise jumping and the character's special abilities drive the challenge.

Dandara

Interconnected level design

TowerClimb

Jumping and platforming

They Bleed Pixels

Jumping and platforming

A brutally tough action platformer with a Lovecraftian horror vibe, blending precise jumping with fluid combo-based combat. Kicking enemies into saws and spikes is the hook, wrapped in a distinctive pixel-and-ink look.
