About these games

Ghost Song

On the desolate moon of Lorian, a long-dormant Deadsuit awakens, armed and combat-ready. In an atmospheric 2D adventure of self-discovery, ancient mysteries and cosmic terror, the player heads beneath the surface to explore winding caverns lit only by bioluminescent flora and to battle strange creatures. New weapons and abilities unlock further strata of the moon as well as hidden areas. Rapid fire from the blaster builds barrel heat that empowers melee attacks; the player upgrades the suit and meets voiced characters who tell their own tales of survival and redemption.

Axiom Verge

After a lab accident, a scientist wakes up in a strange, alien world. Is it a distant planet, the far future, or a complex virtual-reality simulation? Players work their way through a large, labyrinthine world to learn its secrets and uncover their own role in it, finding weapons, items and abilities that each behave and are used differently. Combat pits them against bizarre biomechanoid constructs, the deadly fallout of an ancient war and the demons of their own psyche, and glitches can be triggered on purpose to corrupt foes and solve puzzles in the environment.

Mars 2120

MARS 2120 is a metroidvania blending melee combat with shooting, drawing on classics such as Super Metroid, Castlevania: Symphony of the Night and Guacamelee!. The player follows Sgt. Anna ‘Thirteen’ Charlotte on a space mission to the first human colony on Mars. Using abilities tied to the elements – ice, fire and electricity – she explores the colony, uncovers new biomes and secrets and faces numerous threats; combos mix melee and ranged attacks with special moves, and upgrades and enemy weaknesses must be found, from deadly robots to colossal monsters. Accessibility options let players customize the game.

Xeodrifter

Xeodrifter follows an interstellar nomad who travels the stars on a simple exploration mission across a small cluster of four planets in the omega sector. After a rogue asteroid damaged his warp core, energy signatures on neighboring worlds may hold the material needed for repairs. The routine trip soon becomes a dangerous hunt of searching, shooting and surviving across alien landscapes. The player jumps and shoots through a 2D platforming world, collects legendary power-ups, upgrades health and guns, flies the ship between planets, discovers hidden pathways and battles ancient guardians.

Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet

Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet is a two-dimensional action-adventure game in which you explore unusual environments and battle strange creatures on your way to the heart of the mysterious Shadow Planet. Along the journey you solve complicated puzzles and improve your ship with alien technology in a fight to rescue your home world. The game stands out for the striking visual style of Michel Gagné and for inventive puzzle design blended with intense action sequences. Its rich worlds, complete with back stories, can also be explored together with friends in multiplayer.

Shadow Labyrinth

Shadow Labyrinth is a 2D action platformer that offers an alternate, genre-twisting take on the iconic PAC-MAN. The player controls The Swordsman, who awakens on a mysterious planet among relics of past wars. Exploring the maze, discovering new powers and consuming enemies, they grow from prey into the apex predator, while teaming up with PUCK, a floating yellow orb, to uncover the truth behind their presence.
