I'm kinda surprised this game hasn't been mentioned yet: Downwell



If you have been playing this game, then you know what I'm talking about. This game is begging to be installed on your arcade machine. I could totally imagine this game as a real arcade machine from the 80's. I'm officially addicted to it. It combines so many great aspects that make a great arcade game.

It's only $3 on Steam. It only requires left and right movement and a single button. It's semi-cab friendly in that the character's movement is either A or D on the keyboard or the L and R arrow keys. And the 'fire' button is either space bar or shift. (However, there is a rumor the developer is going to make custom inputs so that it's fully cab-friendly.) Oh and it supports horizontal and rotated screens.

Why are you still reading this? Go try this game!

Anyone else annoyed by how small the characters are on these throwback platformers?

IMO, larger characters was one of the big improvements when the 16-bit era came along.

UnEpic is a good game. Teleglitch is another.

I'm s huge fan of the arcade classic Defender and I think this remake of it Refender is pretty cool http://norrish.force9.co.uk/refender/ I have played it on my desktop but sadly the PC in my mame cab doesn't support OpenGL 2.0 so I will have to wait untill I upgrade that, which might be awhile :)

Early release on Youtube, collision detection was fixed later
