CHAOTIC PHOENIX

Chaotic Phoenix

A one-person game studio.

A fortress against the Mongol horde, a pencil race on squared paper, a snake made of numbers, a virus that eats the sun, germs that sneeze, gravity you steer, and a sheep in a mech. Small games with big chaos, made for your phone.

TD Survivor · tower defense

One fortress. 95 towers. The whole horde.

Between the waves, spend your gold on random cards and turn one fortress into a wall of fire, stone, steel, water and wood.

  • The sign of Fire Fire melts Metal, Water puts out Fire, Wood breaks Earth: mix your towers to answer the horde's armor.
  • A shaman on horseback Shamans heal the riders round them with their dying breath.
  • The Great Khan on his black horse After 30 waves the Great Khan comes himself. It's meant to be hard.

Paper Rally · pencil race

Hold the pencil. Let it slip. Stay on the road.

The pencil race from the back of the school notebook: the line the tip shoots is your car's move.

  • The cheap plastic pen The cheap plastic pen is fast and wild, the classic risk pick. Hold too long and your thumb slips on its own.
  • A coffee ring on the track Shoot from a coffee ring or an oil stain and the shot skids: its angle goes wild.
  • The fountain pen The fountain pen leaves an ink blot that makes everyone else skid.

Snake X 2048 · puzzle

Eat your own number. Watch the snake fold up.

Every segment is a number: eat your head's own number and the merges run on down the whole body.

  • The AVALANCHE badge A snake of 16-8-4-2 that eats a 2 collapses into a single 32. Six merges in one go is AVALANCHE.
  • The Coral snake skin Leave a number lying too long and it ripens: it doubles. Make a 512 and the snake can wear Coral.
  • The DAILY HABIT badge A daily challenge on a board of a new shape every day: a ring, a diamond, an hourglass.

SWARMCORE · arena roguelike

Start as a virus. Finish by eating the sun.

Tap Wars · tap-defence

Germs are coming for your heart. Literally.

Gravity Panic · arcade

Push the stick. Gravity follows. Your speed doesn't.

Gravity pulls wherever you point it, but you keep your momentum: ride it through endless space.

  • The VOID badge: the orb pulled sideways past a rock, a mine and a gem In VOID gravity pulls wherever you push the stick. Handy, since the mines hunt you.
  • The SPIKES badge: the orb before a gate, an arrow marking how its gap slides In SPIKES the walls won't keep still: every gap slides up and down, and soon they open and close as you fly at them.
  • A badge of diamonds Spend your diamonds on eight orbs, up to the rainbow Prism and the Phoenix.
See Gravity Panic

BAArrage · sheep shmup

A sheep. In a mech. Versus wolves.

Fly up through the sky with one thumb, and build a wild arsenal as you climb.

  • The Big Bad Wolf The Big Bad Wolf huffs and puffs: when his cheeks fill, a gust bends his bullets sideways.
  • The Wolf in Sheep's Clothing The Wolf in Sheep's Clothing hides in a flock of decoy sheep. Only its magenta eyes give it away.
  • The Black Sheep card 113 cards to build with, 12 of them bending the rules, and 8 hidden merges to find.
