Hydorah
Hydorah is an awesome and faithful loveletter to the horiztonal shooter genre.
The amount of polish, details and love putted into this game is just astounding. This is definitely some game of the year material right here!
If it would have been released in the 90s it surely would have been a big hit.
Without a doubt one of the most polished freeware games ever… (with fantasitc music from Gryzor87)
Now do yourself a favour and download this gem to breathe some classic shoot em up air!
I’ve also recorded a video so you can see how the first 10 minutes of the game look like.
The developer Locomalito about the game: “Hydorah is a game designed for classic shoot em up players, who still love clean designs and challenging adventures”

Titan Attacks
Titan Attacks is without a doubt the best and most polished Space Inavders tribute that exists. Stylish visuals, fast controls, many levels with well designed enemy patterns, boss fights, upgradeable ship…
YouTuber Northernlion also made a proper video about the game called Let’s Look At – Titan Attacks.
