Overview
Description

Blob from Space is a challenging indie platformer set in a quirky sci‑fi universe. The game forces you to complete the entire experience in one uninterrupted run, with only three continues and no save points. If you’re desperate, you can exchange cheat codes with friends to skip levels, but doing so sacrifices points and may block certain achievements. The choice is yours.

The Escapist is a 2D platformer that mixes frantic bouncing mechanics with heavily trapped environments. Across 48 meticulously designed levels you’ll need precise timing and quick reflexes to survive. Three demanding bosses cap the experience, while a variety of upgrades let you tweak your playstyle. Designed for hardcore players, the game runs on Linux, PC, and Mac, delivering a tight indie action experience.
