First up is , a comedy stealth game where you're tasked with taking on various odd jobs.

There's a definite touch of Untitled Goose Game to this one, which is due out lat♔er this year.
, a puzzle game that's already pulling in some serious critical acclaim with more than two dozen wins and nominations from indie shows around the world.

Opting for a very different vibe, channels those chaotic stickfight videos into an entire chaoti🥂c, side-scrolling fighter. Brutal, hilarious, and filled with truly wild ways to stick it to🍸 the Man, this physics-based battler is set to launch later this year.
Keeping with that fast-paced vibe is , an isometric twin-stick shooter.
