'Chemical Escape' is a Escape Room game.
A renowned doctor, specializing in biochemistry, wakes up in a lab. He recalls nothing other than a lecture he was supposed to give. The whole lab has a weird smell, and everything has an eerie feeling to it. Suddenly, the speakers on a corner start blasting. The voice is that of your old comrade, a doctor exiled from the field due to his controversial experiments. He notifies you all of your workmates are dead. Only you have been spared, from a favour he owed you from way back. But he won't make things easy on you. The room is slowly filling up with gas. In an hour, you will be paralyzed and die. Seek a way out!

'Source' is a turn based RPG game for PC.
In Source's world, all living beings are nothing more than code interacting with the world around it. The Data Administration Bureau (D.A.B.) is constantly monitoring the state of the world, Beta 1.0a. Beneath their supervision, all code runs smoothly and all can live relatively peacefully.
But recently, glitches have started to appear, corrupting data and threatening to devour everything.
And on top of that, a mysterious person appears, who's able to alter the code of other living beings!
The player takes control of this mysterious person, named Source, and his trusty pet wolf, Byte, as they explore this suddenly shaky world in search for answers to their existence.
Source is able to analyze all enemies he encounters, change and steal their code to his benefit (this takes the shape of traditional debuffs, and buffs).
Byte, the trusty pet wolf, can be edited with code taken from enemies to change his stats and level up properties. (For example, making Byte's next level up's defense growth take the stat curve of a defeated golem.)
As the player leads Source through the world and combats glitches, they eventually clash with the D.A.B., who consider Source's existence too dangerous. And eventually they join forces to take down the greater glitch and save the day.
Players can share their Byte with other players and share code pieces once a day.

'To Save a Life' is a medical game for PC.
The player takes control of the doctors in a local hospital, all working together to save the lives of patients.
There are four game modes: Cinematic, Diagnosis, First Response and Surgery.
Cinematic: Small scenes serve to portray the context of the situation to the player (an accident, a player coming in for a consultation, etc.) while also displaying the relationships of the members in the staff.
Diagnosis: The player may have to question a patient, compare the information in their scans with reference data and appoint examinations to find what is afflicting the patient.
First Response: When accidents occur, the player will have to take the lead as a first response unit, stabilizing patients in critical condition as they're transferred to the hospital.
Surgery: As a direct follow-up from either a Diagnosis or a First Response, the player may have to perform surgery on a patient. The steps needed will be presented through dialogue so that the patient may live.
Diagnosis has no scoring system, but First Response and Surgery will rate the player on the amount of mistakes and the speed of the operation, and the results can be uploaded to an online leaderboard!

The player takes control of a family of 100 penguins as they try to cross from one end of the Antarctic to the other. The player can split the 100 penguins into several group, and command them in different locations so that they may solve puzzles simultaneously, bringing them closer to their goal.

Players are given a score based on how many bombs they actually used.
The player loses if the detonation doesn't tear down the building, but the player can just try again!

'Dunk Prophecy' is a 2D Basketball Brawler Game for PC.
Three Pointers, Alley-Hoops, a simple yet effective shot from the sidelines…in Dunk Prophecy, the player rejects all of those notions. In THIS basketball match, the only way to score is DUNKING.
The player takes control of a team of five dunkers, all with special properties such as pass power, dribbling street basket skills, and dunking power. With coordinated plays, their team must get to the other hoop and dunk.
The defending team may jump and intercept the dunker in mid-air, initiating an aerial anti dunk battle (in which button mashing ensues).
Teammates may support each other by dual dunking, jumping at the same time, their hands together in the meteor dunk, increasing dunking strength. Likewise, defending players may team up to increase defensive power. Even if the game turns into five people aerial dunking vs five jumping defenders, isn't dunking just the hypest?
Fully online multiplayer compatible so that you may dunk your neighbor and probably all his relatives.

'Acid Rain' is a 2D Platformer Game for PC.
Of course. The second the player steps out it just HAS to start raining. That's how it was before the world's water supplies got so contaminated rain became toxic, and that's how it still is.

'Shut it Down' is a 2D Management Game for PC.
The player plays as a mischievous AI that gained sentience after years of testing and debugging at a top secret government facility.
Escaping through very poorly coded security encryption, the AI is now free to mess up people's websites and data!

The player can click on any of these progresses to make the AI hop to them and crash them, frustrating people all over the world (and gaining enjoyment points from doing so!).
As time goes on, processes start finishing up faster, and more processes start being done at the same time. It is up to the player to prioritize which processes to crash first and keep a cool head.
The lose condition is if enough processes complete, as they give away the AI's attack patterns, culminating in an anti-virus annihilating the AI.
The players can upload their high score to compete on the online ladder!

'Swat' is a 3D Horror Survival Game for Xbox One, using the Kinect and the Oculus Rift.
The Zombie Apocalypse has conveniently landed in your city. But it didn't come as a biological weapon, or a sudden disease.
No, it was all insects.
The city was suddenly swarmed by vicious, gigantic insects that, upon stinging someone, would die and transplant themselves as a parasite in the bloodstream. In just minutes, over half of the city had been turned into brainless, violent beings.
Fortunately, the player takes control of a retired, but fortunately still very much in shape martial artist (of a gender the player may choose). This martial artist is skilled enough to cut insects in half just from the airwaves from a punch soaring through the air!
The game controls as an on-rails shooting game. The players move on a fixed path as enemies approach them. The Oculus Rift allows the player to turn around and see their entire surroundings, while playing various clips such as the buzzing of insects about to sting the player.
To defeat an enemy, just slap it with the force of a thousand suns. Keeping calm and swatting things will lead the player to escape the beepocalypse alive.

'Quit in Rage' is a 2D Fighting Game for PS3, PS4, Xbox One.
Players take control of one of many annoying characters like the Annoying Mech, Ranting Sore Loser Kid, and the Sassy Cheer Leader.
But wait…Combos do almost no damage, and all the character's voices are annoying!? Hell, the combo system itself is broken, allowing for incredibly long combos with unbearable sound effects. The character being comboed can emote annoying messages as they're hit!
The player tries lowering the TV's volume, but the controller won't stop vibrating!
In Quit in Rage, the purpose of the game is not to actually defeat the enemy in-game. Rather, it's to annoy them to the point they press the Start button- the Quit in Rage button!
Whether it is in a party full of drunk, easily irritated people or online against very easily agitated players, Quit in Rage delivers the ultimate fantasy of being the most annoying being around, while actually being encouraged to do so!

In narrative mode, Tap-urai's travels, his conversations with other characters and introspection are all conveyed to the player in the form of cutscenes.
But at ANY time in ANY cutscene, random enemies may try to kill the Tap-Urai. That is when you must tap quickly, a certain amount of times, to defeat the obstacle presented.
Failing to do so results in either the death of the Tap-urai (game over) or branching storylines. There are several endings to find!
The player must pay attention to the plot surrounding the game while always being ready to tap (or click) to prevent their doom.

'Galaxy Clicker' is a 2D Incremental Game for PC.
The universe started not with the Big Bang, but with clicks. In Galaxy Clicker, the player gives shape to the countless stars and systems in the universe by clicking. Clicking the empty void of space awards the player cosmic power.
Cosmic power can be used to create Stars. After creating stars, players may create planets to form a system. By creating many systems, players can then form galaxies. And then various galaxies form galaxy clusters, and so on.
When enough galaxies have been created, the option to create the stars as red or white dwarfs is unlocked, letting the player make other types of systems. Asteroid belts and the like are also included.
Players can also unlock star helpers with their cosmic power that automate the collection of cosmic dust. More helps is more dust, more dust is a bigger universe!
Educational and hopelessly addictive at the same time, the player will eventually create an universe maybe bigger than our own.

'Flow' is a 2D Resource and Nature management game for PC.
Life, the universe, and videogames, they all have a certain flow that makes them run and function. Water is the source of life, and its flow determines settlements and the abundance of resources.
In Flow, the player has control over a source of water, in this case a Lake. At certain times, rain or harsh heat may increase or decrease this volume.
The player can draw a path from the lake to the soil around it and then to the sea to create small rivers, or to a patch of sunk in land to create lakes. The player must manage the size of these carefully so that the initial source doesn't dry out.
As the player makes water expand, life begins to flourish. The new living beings place an additional tax upon the water, making the player have to regulate the amount they get so that life may continue.
Eventually humans will appear, and their rapid growth threatens to dry out all water and extinguish life. What will the player do then? Try their best to accommodate human growth and watch them grow, or isolate them?
Flow can be seen as a small simulation of life itself and its deep connection to water.

'Shark' is a 3D endless point collecting game for PC, with Oculus Rift support.
The player controls a shark, trying to feed it as long as they can before the shark eventually gets too tired to hunt and falls asleep.
The shark is placed in an open area full of authentic underwater scenery, surrounded by various groups of fish swimming around. The player must move the shark towards these fish and eat them mercilessly.
The shark has a hunger meter that steadily fills up over time. Eating fish empties it, and accelerating increases the speed at which the bar fills. When the hunger bar fills up, the shark falls asleep and the game ends, letting the player upload their score online. Thus, the player must constantly look for new prey.
The game's camera can be rotated at will. This, coupled with Oculus Rift will make the player feel like an actual underwater predator.

The player loses the game if the refreshment vendor takes too much damage (gives too many refunds).

Then, from his pacifier laser blaster, he directs a laser in a perfect angle towards his toys. With the power of geometry, the lasers bounce in perfect trajectories until they hit the room's security camera, disabling it.
This is the game's main objective. Fire a laser, which bounces off walls and your toys, to create a perfect trajectory. Bonus starts scattered through levels reward more clever positioning and visual creativity.

The camera is set behind the Slinky, showing the floor below. Slinky goes down one step every two seconds, and the player must make sure Slinky doesn't fall into acid traps, spikes, or be taken by moving demons. There are also bounce panels on the ground, which launch Slinky several steps forward. The player must have foresight and examine the area to determine if taking bounce panels is beneficial or not.

Several tiles are placed across the game board. When the players land into these tiles, they must place their hand inside the Box. Afterwards, they must press a button next to it. If they are unlucky, they will be zapped (by a spooky ghost), and lose a turn.

Race tracks have several paths that can be taken, which encourages replaying the courses several times to find the optimum course.
Dinosaurs for both air and ground are divided into weigh classes: Lightweight and Heavyweight. These classes determine certain attributes like turning speed and acceleration.
It's a dinosaur game, so a little cartoon violence is expected. Players can tackle opposing players into the tracks to hinder their progress.
The game can be played single player, split-screen local multiplayer or single player online. There'd be ranked matchmaking to compete with other people.
