Cuboid Bouncer is a 3D Side-Scroller video game that includes 12 levels with different challenges on each level. The player is called Cuboid (a cube like character) that must jump or bounce its way through the different obstacles. Each higher level is more challenging and difficult than the previous level. There are power-ups available that can make Cuboid jump higher or move faster. To successfully complete each level the player must successfully go to the end of the level without falling. To finish the game, the player must complete all 12 levels.

Space Resistance

Download on Microsoft Store: Space Resistance

Space Resistance is a classic shoot’em-up style game with a rogue-like level system. The aim is to defeat as many enemy ships as possible and get the highest score by surviving as long as possible!

There are three different types of enemy ships, Mites, Grasshoppers, and Tarantulas:

There’s also a boss, known as the “Goliath”:

As the player continues through the game, they will encounter enemies and a Goliath. After the Goliath is killed, the player advances to the next level. The next wave begins immediately, where the enemies will be tougher to beat. Players can watch out for pickup items on their mission, including shields and health. These are dropped randomly by enemies that are killed.
