Canabalt all the way, with Hook Champ in close second (for many it's vice versa.) Canabalt is just awesome addicting retro-style but exciting gameplay. Hook Champ is colorful retro graphics in a complete modern game.
I want to update this 8 month old thread I have book marked for some reason... The hook games are amazing - Hook Champ - Super Quickhook - Hook Worlds (this one being my favorite) The iOS super meat boy - League of Evil The bite sized but delicious RPG - Pixel Fighters If it hasn't been mentioned already, the dirty Outrun clone - Truckers Delight Interactive Poetry - Today I die Inventive fighting game - Battle Blasters (give me a sequel or an update on this devs! such a great concept)
Pixel fighters is a very good RPG and instabuy at 99cents . You can even take picture of background and use it in your fights. Hook champ is classic action game using hooking.
Why do you people constantly repeat the same titles? This thread is 3 pages long, and some of the games are mentioned like 10 times... My suggestions: Frogatto - one of the best platformers out there Wild Frontier - great krpg Death Worm Knights of the Phantom Castle (great strategy game, although it gets VERY challenging after the first levels, you have been warned) 100 Rogues - if you like roguelike games Blocks Mania - great puzzler most of games from Donut Games Mecho Wars - turn based strategy, great pixel art style Phoenix Spirit Skullpogo Space Monkey Time Geeks eBoy FixPix - as some people mentioned Zombie Shock Knight's Rush - it has a retro pixel graphics mode you can turn on, looks nice Crimson Gem Saga - pixel art characters + hand-drawn backgrounds, don't know if it fits here Trace - very original game Airfox - River Raid returns! 8bit Games - Flying - retro feel all the way That is most of the games I would reccomend, I'll add something new if it will be worth mentioning.
In Order of awesomeness; Spike Dislike Canabalt Bit Pilot The Incident Super Minotaur Grim Joggers Hook series Pixn love rush
Was going to create a new thread, but found this one in the search. I was wondering which ipad games you guys were enjoying at the moment that have a pixel art or 8bit graphics style. My favourites are; Superbrothers sword & sworcery Canabalt The incident Spike dislike Minotaur rescue 8 bit basketball Attack of the mutant sheep (msheep hd) What ipad pixel games do you think are great?
I'm not sure what they look like on iPad but both Forget-Me-Not and Mos Speedrun deserve to be in this topic.
Back again with some more titles, because I love retro! Atari's Greatest Hits: The best classic Atari game. As a bonus, you even get all the old manuals with the games! Freeway: A 2600 game available for free that hasn't gotten much publicity. Atlantis Invaders: That classic 2600 game, made by the same people who ported Freeway. Super Mega Worm: An absolutely GORGEOUS pixel game that totally owns Death Worm. Ash: as mentioned above, 32 -bit game with entirely 16-bit rpg awesomeness. Hurdle Turtle: Cool 8-bit casual game with pretty good art. Mega Man 2: The original and the best, in all its glory. Radiant: Another great game that no one knows about, with what I consider the best retro graphics. Go pick it up! Splatterhouse: Good arcade graphics and a solid beat-em up. ZX Spectrum Elite Collection: Great emulator with tons of beautiful Spectrum games. Commodore 64: See above, but replace the word Spectrum with Commodore.
Here goes the best and new in the last two month. No particular order. Air Supply - 8 bit run Kami Retro Mos Speedrun League of Evil Forget-Me-Not
