Race the Sun

Sci-fi setting

The Next Penelope

Sci-fi setting

A fast, vividly colorful space racing-shooter loosely inspired by the Odyssey, where Penelope searches for Ulysses and visits planets in any order. Weapons drain your energy, so you are powerful yet always close to death.

OlliOlli

Pixel art
