Dontbegrey

Jumping and platforming

A minimalist, punishing platformer where you switch colors to decide what counts as an obstacle and what is just background. It demands precise jumping and clever rethinking of every section.

The Sun and Moon

Jumping and platforming

You dive into the ground and gravity flips, so your conserved momentum launches you high into the sky or deep beneath the surface. Collect the three orbs in each level and reach the wormhole, while spikes and bottomless drops make every stage harder than the last.

N

Jumping and platforming

You guide a tiny stick-figure ninja who grabs gold while a physics simulation keeps throwing him around. Hilarious ragdoll deaths and the built-in level editor Ned make it memorable.

Pivot Pilot

Puzzles and brain teasers

A tough platformer where you control a boy and a giant robot arm at the same time. The unusual dual control blends precise platforming with puzzle solving.

Ball laB

Jumping and platforming

You guide a ball through over 60 tricky levels in a minimalist look. Precise jumps and plenty of patience are needed, as the difficulty is high.

Dimension Jump

Puzzles and brain teasers

A precision puzzle platformer where you hop not only between platforms but between dimensions, using the switch to get past obstacles.

Light Fantastik

Linear, curated structure

A small indie platformer built around light and dark: you jump higher in the dark, but your controls are inverted. This mechanical twist demands rethinking and careful timing.

Disparity

Puzzles and brain teasers

An extremely precise 2D puzzle platformer built around one core mechanic: flipping the polarity of the level. It demands sharp timing and clever thinking to get through its tough stages.
