Small games made with Argus, a 2D game engine you build games in together with an AI agent. Each one runs here in your browser, the same game, tick for tick, as its desktop build.

02On the desktop

One that needs a desktop.

  1. Swarm: hundreds of enemies circling the hero in an arena.

    Swarm

    Desktop only

    An arena shooter against waves of hundreds of enemies.

    Its chase runs in a Rust plugin, for speed, and a browser cannot load one. So Swarm plays on Windows, Linux and the Mac, from the example games that come with each release.

03Good to know

Good to know

  • Click the game first

    A game hears your keys once you click it. On a phone or a tablet, play by touch.

  • Settings in every game

    Each game's Esc menu has text size, high contrast and full screen, and its controls, where any key can be rebound.

  • Drawn on your graphics card

    The games draw with WebGPU where the browser has it, and with WebGL2 where it does not.
