Game #1 - Puttler

MINI GOLF, BUT YOU MUST BUILD THE SOLUTION!

GENRE: MINI GOLF, PHYSICS, PUZZLE, BUILDING

AVAILABLE PLATFORMS: PC

I really love this game! It’s a great idea for a puzzle game.

If you love solving problems and building your own contraptions and machines, then I think you’ll really love this.

Puttler is a really unique mini-golf puzzle game where you’re not just swinging a club—you’re building contraptions and solving creative challenges to sink the ball under par.

You play across 12 colorful courses and 200+ unique holes, dodging stuff like portals, black holes, sand traps, and moving platforms, all while using different “Puttler” shapes to bounce, roll, and curve your way to victory.

You can choose to craft clever under-par solutions or go wild with ridiculous setups.

It’s perfect for puzzle fans who like their brain teasers with a side of silly mini-golf chaos.

Game #2 - The Mr Rabbit Magic Show

ANOTHER BRILLIANT GAME FROM RUSTY LAKE

GENRE: ADVENTURE, ESCAPE ROOM, POINT & CLICK, PUZZLE

AVAILABLE PLATFORMS: PC, MAC

The Mr. Rabbit Magic Show is a weird and wonderful point-and-click puzzle game where you’re invited to a mysterious magic show that’s definitely hiding more than a few secrets.

Across 20 strange, whimsical acts, you’ll solve puzzles, unravel bizarre tricks, and slowly realize that things aren’t quite what they seem (in true Rusty Lake fashion).

It’s a short, free-to-play adventure made to celebrate 10 years of Rusty Lake, packed with quirky surprises, creepy vibes, and a few unsettling twists.

Perfect for fans of surreal puzzles, mysterious storytelling, and that signature mix of charm and unease Rusty Lake always delivers.

P.S. If haven’t played any of Rusty Lake’s previous games, please go check them out!

Game #3 - Easy Delivery Co.

A CHILL DRIVING GAME WITH DEFINITELY NO SECRETS…

GENRE: DRIVING, OPEN WORLD, RELAXING, CHILL

AVAILABLE PLATFORMS: PC, MAC

Easy Delivery Co. is a laid-back driving game where you cruise around a quiet, kinda eerie mountain town, delivering packages in your tiny truck while earning way less than you deserve.

It’s super relaxing on the surface—just drive, drop off packages, meet the locals, and vibe to some great music—but let’s be real… something weird’s definitely going on here.

You can take it slow and enjoy the moody scenery, or race through deliveries in split-screen multiplayer with up to four friends.

With retro visuals, simple controls, and a cozy-but-mysterious vibe, it’s perfect if you’re into chill games that might be hiding a deeper (and stranger) story underneath.

The demo is currently available and is worth checking out.

The full game is likely to release in the not to distant future.

Game #4 - Scarmonde

A MODERN LOVE LETTER TO 8-BIT RPGs!

GENRE: ADVENTURE, RPG, JRPG, PARTY BASED RPG, 2D

AVAILABLE PLATFORMS: PC, STEAM DECK

Scarmonde is like a polished, modern take on Final Fantasy I, blending retro 8-bit vibes with deeper mechanics and smoother gameplay.

You build a party of 4 from 12 classic RPG classes, then dive into dungeons to hunt treasures, unlock new areas, and take down tough bosses.

The story is light but intriguing, with extra twists and a bigger payoff in the optional postgame.

Combat’s strategic and flexible, letting you experiment with class combos, gear, and tactics—and the game’s smart enough to challenge you into switching things up.

With over 200 treasures, secrets, multiple endings, and a banger 8-bit soundtrack, it’s perfect for anyone who loves classic RPGs, JRPGS and dungeon crawlers but wants modern quality-of-life updates and more replay value.

A must-play for fans of old-school RPGs looking for something fresh but familiar.

Game #5 - Replicube

BUILD, CODE AND SHARE VOXEL ART

GENRE: SIMULATION, PUZZLE, PROGRAMMING, SANDBOX

AVAILABLE PLATFORMS: PC, MAC, LINUX, STEAM DECK

Replicube is a programming puzzle game where you write code to recreate 3D voxel objects—basically, it’s like coding with Lego blocks in 3D.

The goal? Replicate a target shape using your own code, with no single “right” solution. If it matches, it works!

You can play through puzzles, try to climb the leaderboards for shortest or fastest code, or just mess around in free edit mode making your own voxel art.

There’s even a bonus 2D editor to code cool images or GIFs, plus a built-in online forum to share creations or challenge others.

Whether you’re a programmer, puzzle fan, or just wanna make voxel art, it’s a fun sandbox that lets you get creative while flexing your coding brain—no pressure, no timers, just you and the cubes.

This comes from the same awesome dev who made JellyCar and Parking Garage Rally Circuit.
