From the acclaimed team behind Blasphemous, NINJA GAIDEN: Ragebound successfully unites the classic lore and gameplay of the Tecmo-developed (now KOEI TECMO GAMES) NINJA GAIDEN series from the 8-bit era with the depth and intensity of the modern 3D entries. The best of both eras come together to create an epic and thrilling adventure.

Our story begins when Ryu Hayabusa journeys to America to honor his father's will. While he is away, the barrier between the human and the demon worlds suddenly shatters, unleashing a terrifying army upon the Hayabusa Village, which now faces an unprecedented threat in Ryu's absence.

To stand against this new threat, Kenji Mozu, a young ninja from the Hayabusa Village, rises to the challenge! Trained by Ryu, he fights fiercely but soon finds himself in desperate straits. Forced to tap into forbidden power, Kenji sets aside centuries of animosity and forms an alliance with the sinister Black Spider Clan, convinced that combining their souls and skills is the only way to protect the world out of the Demon Lord's grasp!

Combining old-school feeling with modern precision, NINJA GAIDEN: Ragebound retains the pick-up-and-play action of the classic titles, while introducing new layers of depth.

Alongside the new protagonist, Kenji Mozu, is the skilled assassin Kumori. Take control of these two powerful ninjas simultaneously and unravel their interconnected stories.

Use the Ninja Fusion to unleash devastating abilities and obliterate your enemies. NINJA GAIDEN: Ragebound features impeccable mechanics that are easy to learn but hard to truly master, challenging the skills of even the most seasoned fans of the NINJA GAIDEN series!

Step into a reimagined version of the classic NINJA GAIDEN universe, brought to life through stunning, meticulously crafted visuals. Every enemy is recreated with a level of detail that was once impossible.

The brutal, nostalgia-filled aesthetic of NINJA GAIDEN: Ragebound pays homage to the past while pushing the boundaries of modern pixel art, making every battle a feast for the eyes.

Do you have what it takes to become a true ninja master?

Take to Neopolis as Neon, punching your way through all manner of robot to get your creator's body back. Shred through enemies at lightspeed with attack chaining and dashing so tight it'll make you think other games are running in slow motion. Transform into an engine of destruction at 100% power, and show the world what you can really do!

Oh, and "lightspeed" isn't an exaggeration; you can literally freeze time (and the level timer) to get the advantage on your enemies!

Advent NEON gives you:

A full platform fighter's moveset (attack in multiple directions!) with cancelable attacks and extremely responsive inputs to always vary up your combos!
8-way dashing, to go fast and get past whatever's in your way! (There's even wavedashing too!)
Schmovement. Not just movement, but that BUTTER SMOOTH "spend 10 minutes just enjoying jumping and dashing" movement. Even the walls are your playground!
A parry? Nah, we freeze time around these parts!
But also I lied, as you can ALSO parry attacks with your own!
Resonance: The ability to scale drastically in power, dealing critical hits and transforming at 100% strength! Only the most skilled players can maintain this level of power!
Use slopes to your advantage to achieve and maintain High Speed State, tearing through enemies and level records, alike!
There's also a Training Room for you to spawn enemies and try out items and combos!

Remappable controls, multiple controller support, ability to hold inputs, tweak FX opacity and more in the options menus!

Mission: Stop the Virus Army’s Uprising!
In a futuristic world populated by sentient robots, its inhabitants are once more threatened by an old foe, the Virus Army.

Severely weakened Guardian Corps are left with no other choice but to call upon a hero of the previous war: the lone operative, Kai, who harnesses the powers of the mysterious Gravity Circuit.

Action packed platforming
By channeling your energy into devastating punches, perform satisfying combos and send foes flying, causing destruction and mayhem in the process!
Save the innocent, and power up!
Stages are packed with secrets and innocent civilians alike. Uncover and rescue them, and unlock new powers!
Single player campaign with 12 stages
Each with their unique set of mechanics, your platforming and combat skills will be tested against an armada of enemies and bosses!

You were chosen for this mission because of your signature chain-hook prosthetic arm and the ability to maneuver and quickly defeat enemies. The mission: to hunt down a mysterious entity known as “SANABI” and uncover corporate secrets hidden deep within the city.

An exhilarating platformer

Your giant chain-hook prosthetic arm acts as both a method for quickly maneuvering around and also a way to swiftly take out your opponents. With your legendary skills, you are capable of using your prosthetic arm to jump over cliffs and skyscrapers, dash through bullets and traps and defeat powerful enemies. It's time for you to come back out of retirement for one last mission.

A beautiful yet mysterious cyberpunk dystopia

Mega-city “MAGO” is a high-tech city ruled by a corrupt conglomerate… at least, that’s what it was 24 hours ago. After a sudden blackout, all of its citizens mysteriously disappeared and the city was left in total chaos. It’s your mission to explore the depths of the city and uncover what happened.

Mari, the hacker prodigy

A brilliant hacker and drone rider you meet during your mission. Mari can open locked doors, reveal enemy weaknesses and uncover encrypted information. Mari is lovely and reliable, but maybe just a little too chatty. Who knows though, this girl might be the key to finding SANABI.

FRIEND'S PASS NOW AVAILABLE!

You can now play the whole Co-op campaign and the Speedrun Mode with a Friend!

Timemelters Tome I - Witches and Pyres, is a strategy and hero defense hybrid game that allows you to unleash the power within and become a time-warping witch! Step into the shoes of Teagan, after a narrow escape from a witch trial, embark on a quest to unravel the mysteries surrounding her new powers and alter the course of the future. Get ready to engage in strategic battles against dangerous foes, manipulate the environment to your advantage, and explore a world teetering on the brink of doom.

Featuring a single-player and co-op campaign, prepare for a fantastical and dark adventure with a unique twist on time-travel mechanics.

Features:

Unique Time Shift game mechanic: rewind time and fight alongside yourself, not as an AI, but in a fully deterministic fashion. Plan out truly custom strategies and play to your own style! Experience Co-op game mechanics (aggro, support, etc.) all while playing solo!

Hybrid Action-Strategy gameplay: Plan a strategy and execute it all in real time, across distinct missions! Puzzle maps, boss fights, escort missions, survival, etc. -- each mission has distinct objectives and brings unique twists on the time travel mechanic!

Co-op mode: Play the full campaign with a friend online (2 players) using the free Friend's Pass!

Startling storyline: Engaging campaign with all the twists, turns, nooks, crannies and what-the-bleep-just-happened moments you would -- and should -- expect from a story based on Time Travel!

Challenge and Speedrun Modes: Test your brain power with 40 mind bending, 4D thinking challenges! Or compete the leaderboards in the Speedrun Mode!

Skill Tree: Choose how your spells upgrade -- yielding ever more powerful magic and intricate build choices!

Original Soundtrack: Sumptuous, expansive soundtrack filled with epic moments (and a few earworms)!

This game was made by an indie team of 3 people who prioritized innovative game mechanics over AAA graphics; and we hope you'll love TimeMelters as much as we do!

The Swap Mechanic and Realistic Physics System

Central to Bionic Bay is an innovative swap mechanic and a realistic physics system. When combined, these offer a new way of interacting with the environment – from shifting gravity to interchanging positions with objects and adversaries, and to move, defend, or attack. But be careful not to burn, break, freeze, explode, or vaporize in the process.

An Ancient Biomechanical World

Plunge into an ancient, biomechanical world teeming with imaginative devices, mysterious technology, and peculiar inhabitants. Get lost in the vast sci-fi landscapes in gritty high-density pixel art style and suspenseful sound design that makes each biome distinct. Attempt to uncover the secrets of the ancient world.

Platforming Built for Speedrunning

Fluid movement and reactive physics make for high adrenaline and action-packed moments in each uniquely designed level. Creatively navigate around the many curious hazards by precisely executing the right combination of swaps and maneuvers. And perhaps… have a go at completing each level as fast as you can.

Online Mode: Competitive Speedrunning, Leaderboards, and Character Customization

Test your mastery in timed races against other players’ ghosts and leave them in the dust to claim the top spot on the leaderboards. Stay stylish while trying and recognizable on the boards using the in-game feature that lets you create your very own scientist. And through it all, remember not to rest on your laurels, as the Online Mode updates with new events regularly.

Bionic Bay is developed by two independent companies:

Mureena

Finnish solo developer Juhana Myllys is responsible for art and design. Previous projects as an artist and a designer includes indie hits Badland and Badland 2.

Psychoflow Studio

Taiwanese indie game studio is formed by industry newcomers. This two man company is formed by programmers who are handling the technical side of Bionic Bay.

THE JOB

Monaco is a city overflowing with luxury and greed, which makes it a perfect target for you and your international gang of criminal masterminds. The best of the best have been assembled, and they’ll need to work together using their unique abilities to rob the city blind. Do you and your friends have what it takes to bring the city of Monaco to its knees?

THE CREW

They say there’s no honor among thieves, but they’ve never met your crew! Team up with up to three other players in local or online multiplayer and plan your heist. However, nothing ever goes exactly according to plan in Monaco, so you’ll need to work together and improvise if you want to get away with your haul of riches.

New characters mean all new ways to play! Assemble your team from a selection of eight playable characters, each with their own unique abilities and playstyles. Need to adapt? Switch your character mid-run to overcome whatever obstacles stand between you and untold riches!

THE PLAN

Every heist requires careful planning. With Blueprint Mode, you can look at the level’s layout before you start the mission, allowing you to case the joint before you and your friends fleece it for all its worth.

Monaco 2 offers a new level of immersion with an updated 3D art style and a procedurally generated level design system. Complete the structured campaign or test your skills against the hundreds of seeded levels, proving once and for all that you and your friends are the ultimate thieves!

LET BZZZT BRING YOU TO THE YEAR… 4096

In a top-secret laboratory, inventive Doctor Emily and world-renowned Professor Norbert are working on a highly classified project.
