Since 2004, Dutch indie studio Orangepixel has stood for fast-paced arcade action, roguelite thrills, and signature retro pixel art. What is it that makes this catalog truly unique?
Every title is part of a single, interconnected universe—spanning dark dungeon crawls and chaotic alien invasions to post-apocalyptic survival and deep-space sci-fi exploration. Explore the collection below and dive into the rich Orangepixel universe:
Space Grunts: Chrono Shard is a high-octane blend of tactical depth and arcade energy. With the power of the Chrono Shard, you don’t just survive the void, you master it. Use your Shard to rewind the clock. Any items you’ve placed or changes you’ve made to the environment stay exactly where they are for your next attempt.
Learn from the past to conquer the future. Forget slow-paced menus. This is the original Space Grunts speed. Fast-paced, turn-based combat that rewards quick thinking and even quicker trigger fingers. Take control of your loadout. Find crafting stations to disassemble loot, scavenge resources, and upgrade your weapons into unstoppable tools of destruction.
Shape your playstyle. Invest in three core skill types to unlock specialized sub-classes. Whether you become a Sniper, Assassin, Hitman, Hardened, Elite, Engineer, Gadget, Gearhead, or Veteran, your build defines your edge. Deploy into procedurally generated space stations and moon bases.
Every mission is a new layout of mysterious sectors and deadly surprises. A sentient Ooze is devouring the galaxy, jumping through a hijacked network of HyperGates. As part of the Space Grunts’ elite tactical unit, you are dropped into "time bubbles" to shut down the gates and contain the spread. Navigate procedurally generated space stations and moon bases where every mission is a new layout of mysterious sectors and deadly surprises. Loop the timeline, evolve your grunt, and stop the Ooze—at any cost.
As you hold the mythical Gauntlet of Power you gain the ability to mount weapons in eight directions to protect and mow down the many dangers lurking in the dungeons. Max up your weapons, mount modifiers, combine weapons to create new weapons, or create weapon-unions for even more exotic powers as you explore the weapon tree!
All wrapped up in a fast paced, randomly generated action RPG shooter with dungeon crawling and Rogue-like elements.
You are a weathered adventurer descending the Heroes of Loot Dungeons, be it Elf, Wizard, Warrior or Valkyrie, you are on a mission to sort out this dungeon and it's creepy crawly horde of monsters.
Collecting loot to power up your new found Gauntlet. Locate mysterious items that aid you on this power trip as you go deeper into the belly of the beast: Unlocking a host of weapons, uncovering secret rooms, run into Monk's handing you quests, or purchase new gadgets from the various shops in the dungeon!
Set inside the sprawling vertical arcology of Neo-Kowloon, Shadow Core places you in command of an unsanctioned cyber-warfare cell. Navigate an intricate corporate conspiracy where data is the only currency with unconditional liquidity.
Combine turn-based systemic network breaching with tactical isometric squad movement. Your operative roster is expendable, biological alterations trigger psychosis thresholds, and corporate alliances shift with every exposed transaction.
After their job, of keeping the dungeons in balance, was done, our heroes needed a new job. Roaming the lands they found a call for heroes, a castle in need, and possibly even a damsel in distress. Pick two heroes to take into the adventure, controlling both heroes and using their special skills to navigate the dangerous castle hallways, rooms, and floors. Switching between the two characters to solve quests, puzzles, and of course clear the dungeons of all evil.
Quests - The dungeon is full of problems, let's call them quests. These problems range from simple "find a key" to "use magic powers to light all magic candles and open the magical gate". Different types of quests require different solutions. Use the skills of the characters in your party to complete these quests.
Weapons - Your characters are your main weapons. The Elf shoots his arrows through multiple monsters, the Wizard has unlimited magic, the Warrior has a powerful melee attack with his hammer, and the Valkyrie besides having a quick spinning-melee attack can also detect secrets and important loot.
The characters can level up to increase their firepower or find rare loot that enhances their character for short periods. This includes magic spells!
Secrets - Find secret rooms, level-skipping teleports, secret items, and more!
Perma-items - You will be able to unlock magic spells by collecting 4 shards of various magic books. Once all shards are collected the magic is unlocked.
It's also possible to increase the strength of this magic by collecting the magic shards multiple times. All unlocked spells will stay unlocked even after you die, making you more powerful in your future attempts to reach the final boss.
Every game you play is uniquely generated from building blocks. No two levels are the same, no two game sessions are the same. As you progress through the levels you get to collect items for your inventory: weapons, shields, and dozens of other types of items. Each item in your inventory is a card in your deck. Don't want certain cards? don't pick them up! That's how you build your deck in this game: as you go.
When you encounter aliens, you will engage with them in a card battle: Either you or the alien will choose the first card, depending on who attacks who. And then the other picks his card. Defeat the alien, and move on to the next! Card battles are swift, and to the point. The game will randomly generate events, alternate routes and decide what effects plant-spores have on you or the aliens. Like I said: no two games will be the same! This rogue-like walks a fine line between dungeon crawler and shoot-em-up.
Heroes of Loot draws much inspiration from the original 80s classic Gauntlet games, combined with Robotron and Smash-TV-style gameplay. There are various secrets to uncover, hidden rooms full of unique items to find, and perma-items to find and collect for extra power. So, how deep into the dungeon can you go?
Play it alone, or with a co-op buddy. Just be sure to share the loot, healing potions, weapons, and shields... or not, and sacrifice your buddy for your own gain! Heroes of Loot is a dungeon crawler like no other: Every time you play, the dungeon will be different, and every time you become better, the dungeon will also grow and become more dangerous. This game will learn from you!
A game designed around the simple premise of adventuring: go west or go east? Every room you enter will give you a choice, either stay and fight the dragon, or turn your back and rush to the next room. If you have the right gear, you might be able to slay the dragon.. if you rush away, you might feel its warm fiery breath hitting you in the back. No twitchy reflexes are needed, this game can be played at your own pace. Make the right choice, use your inventory to gain the upper hand in any room, and move deeper into the dungeon!
Take pictures of your various encounters and complete your codex with information on the various entities that roam the dungeon, learning more about the weaknesses and strengths of creatures and magical entities. Take on Quests as you enter every game, ranging from easy to hard, with each quest type rewarding you for your next game. The harder the quest, the bigger the reward, so again: choose wisely!
Survival is not guaranteed. Are you up for the challenge? Step into the ever-evolving corridors of Meganoid, a high-stakes platformer where each session reshapes the world beneath your feet. Every playthrough delivers a new, procedurally generated labyrinth filled with relentless security drones, deadly traps, and secrets waiting to be unearthed. Adapt your strategy as you scavenge for powerful gadgets—jetpacks, anti-gravity boots, and even hacking tools that let you bend the ship’s defenses to your will.
Do you charge forward, narrowly dodging death to reach the exit, or do you linger, risking everything to claim hidden treasures? The deeper you go, the greater the rewards—but also the deadlier the opposition. In true Meganoid fashion, every failure is a lesson, and only the determined will reach the ship’s mysterious depths. Are you ready to survive the Meganoid?
In a forgotten galaxy full of strange planets, a lone explorer crash-lands on one with an ancient alien secret. Venture forth from the shipwreck across a harsh, unpredictable, procedurally generated world. Harvest food and make campfires to stay alive. Craft science-fiction survival tools like teleporters and mining devices. Unearth alien technology capable of repairing the ship. Hunger, cosmic storms, hostile plant life, and the mysterious ooze are among the many obstacles you'll face.
You won't be alone! PDB (a snarky floating Personal Disaster Bot ) will follow and assist you along the way. Sometimes. PDB also helps you discover the hidden lore, revealing the history of the planet as you explore deeper and deeper, assuming you can survive!
OrangePixel’s uniquely designed Nature Engine generates thousands of planets from a vast set of environment-based rules, then drops explorers on a world brimming with potential. If a planet orbits close to the sun, intense heat, high winds, and sparse vegetation will pose a set of challenges wildly different from other worlds. Further from the sun, long nights make stamina easier to maintain, but reduced solar power turns every suit function—like scanning the planet—into a critical decision.
Residual welcomes players to a non-violent survival experience with limitless possibilities and no traditional combat. Jump and descend through colorful, highly detailed pixel art evoking classic 2D platformers. Solve light puzzles to reveal secrets of a long-lost civilization. Select a male, female, or non-binary protagonist, customize survival parameters like how fast time advances, and race to repair the ship, dig up ancient secrets, or collect data entries on hundreds of undiscovered objects.
Fight. The world as we knew it is gone—swallowed by fire, dust, and decay. Stranded in the heart of Ashworld, a post-apocalyptic wasteland, your fight for survival begins. Water and food are scarce, and danger lurks around every corner. The Ragelands are ruled by the ruthless Ragers, merciless road warriors who thrive in chaos. But they aren’t the only threat—the eerie Skellies emerge at night, growing deadlier as time passes.
Survive. Find shelter and scavenge through abandoned skyscrapers, underground bunkers, and scattered ruins for valuable resources. Build, craft, and upgrade your weapons, tools, and gear to stand a chance against the chaos. Engage in intense combat with an arsenal of weapons ranging from chainsaws to plasma rifles. Every step forward is a risk, but standing still is a death sentence.
