ORCS

ORCS is a indie platformer built around the idea of playing as, well, orcs. The pixel art has personality, and the platforming mechanics feel responsive enough for what's clearly a passion project from a small studio. Levels demand precision timing and exploration, with a difficulty curve that ramps up fast. The rough edges show immediately: the level design can feel arbitrary, camera work occasionally betrays you, and there's not much depth beyond jumping and hitting things. It's the kind of game that works best if you go in expecting scrappy charm over polish. If you dig old-school arcade platformers and don't mind some frustration along the way, it's worth a look. Everyone else should probably wait for something more refined.
