Mega Man 10

Challenging difficulty

A deliberately NES-style 8-bit run-and-gun platformer where you pick stages in any order, beat robot bosses and take their weapons. Tight controls and a demanding, old-school difficulty.

Skybolt Zack

Action-packed real-time combat

An arcade platformer that swaps pixel-perfect jumping for rhythm-game-style reactions, chaining dashes, rocket punches and charge attacks from enemy to enemy. It tests both dexterity and quick thinking.

Gravity Circuit

Melee combat with weapons or fists

A fast 2D action platformer in the vein of Mega Man X, where Kai uses a grappling power and gravity abilities to hurl robots through stages and boss fights. Fluid combat, crisp pixel art and a driving soundtrack.

Mutant Mudds

Challenging difficulty

A tight retro platformer where you hover with a jetpack and blast mutant mud monsters while hopping between three depth layers in each level. Its pixel art and precise controls evoke the 8- and 16-bit era.

Mega Man 9

Challenging difficulty

Mega Man 9 deliberately returns to the 8-bit classics: tight run-and-gun platforming, bosses with weaknesses, and a free choice of stage order. It is demanding and rewards precise timing and memorization.

Noitu Love 2: Devolution

Melee combat with weapons or fists

A fast retro arcade beat 'em up with platforming, built around mouse-driven dash attacks. Seven varied pixel-art stages with boss fights deliver old-school fun.

Shadow Dancer

Melee combat with weapons or fists

A classic arcade action platformer where a ninja and his dog take on terrorists through short, demanding stages with shuriken and sword. A sequel to Shinobi that rewards reflexes and memorization.

Super Blue Boy Planet

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

A classic 2D pixel-art platformer where a blue boy runs through 21 levels and fights bosses to rescue his girlfriend, who was kidnapped by aliens.
