Arcen's Games

The Last Federation -- Grand strategy with turn-based tactical combat, set in a deep simulation of an entire solar system and its billions of inhabitants. You are the last of a murdered race, determined to unify or destroy the 8 others.

Bionic Dues -- Tactical, turn-based roguelite with mech customization. Out-think wide-ranging tactical situations featuring robots with bad GPS, terrible aim, insecurity, a lack of focus, a tendency to backstab, and dozens of other maladies to exploit.

Skyward Collapse -- Turn-based strategic god-game where you control neither faction, but instead strive to maintain the balance of power. As one reviewer puts it: "Brings real innovation to a genre that’s seen little significant deviation from 1989’s Populous."

Shattered Haven -- A (mild) horror-adventure game with environmental puzzles, a novel story, and retro early-16-bit-style graphics. Tons of levels, and several story branches.

A Valley Without Wind -- Free-roaming prodecurally-generated action platformer SHMUP with strategic elements: A 2D sidescroller without a linear path. An action game with tactical combat and citybuilding. An adventure game that lets you explore a vast world.

A Valley Without Wind 2 -- A contra-like procedurally-generated platformer mixed with a strategy game where an unstoppable demon hunts your fellow survivors. You choose how and where to explore via the world map, how to upgrade your character via mage classes, feats, and perks that you unlock, and how to battle forces of evil.

Tidalis -- A block-based puzzle game with casual appeal, hardcore depth, and an addictive new "streams" mechanic. The game is brimming over with riffs and variants on that core mechanic with 20 game modes, dozens of special blocks and items, and 115 levels in the adventure mode alone.

AI War: Fleet Comand -- "You are outgunned. You are massively outnumbered. You must win." These are your orders. Humanity has already fought its war against the machines -- and lost. AI death squads stand watch over every planet and every wormhole, the few remaining human settlements are held captive in orbiting bubbles, and the AIs have turned their attention outward, away from the galaxy, to alien threats or opportunities unknown. This inattention is our only hope.
