A Astroblast by Frank Force

Birodalmak (Empires) A 3D hex-map 4X you can actually drive with two fingers: pan, pinch to zoom, twist to rotate.

Canvasnake A snake-vs-snake clone with a genuine neuroevolution-trained AI opponent, local 2-3 player modes, and a touch d-pad confirmed working in all four directions.

Cat Survivors A Vampire Survivors-style bullet heaven squeezed into 13 kilobytes: drag your cat around a flower field for ten minutes while auto-firing weapons and level-up cards do the rest.

Chess A clean, fully-featured chess implementation from the LittleJS engine's own author — AI opponent, local pass-and-play, and tap-to-move touch controls confirmed working end to end.

Chitinous Crooks A seven-day roguelike jam entry about lobsterfolk, a stolen jewel, and a randomised deck of one-shot blessings instead of the usual inventory — built with a genuinely well-designed touch control scheme.

D Dragon Tax Return SimulatorDesktop by Matt Walsh

Dragonsweeper Minesweeper, except the numbers are monster hit points and clicking one starts a fight. A viral, critically loved twist on a 35-year-old genre.

Hexahedral Tap an adjacent cube to slide it and reach the goal tile before you run out of moves — 30 levels across three difficulties.

Idle Merchant Guild A 13th-century trading-guild idle game built entirely from plain buttons, dropdowns and text fields — confirmed fully playable via real touch, from founding a base to queuing up a lumbermill.

Jewelsback A traditional match-3 puzzle whose drag-to-swap mechanic runs through the identical code for a finger as for a mouse — confirmed by triggering a real match through the exact functions a touch gesture invokes.

Kittens United Guide a mother cat back to her scattered kittens on a move-limited grid, dodging obstacles and grabbing yarn balls along the way — built for js13k's 13-kilobyte competition.

Lander A physics-based lunar lander with a numbered daily challenge and a self-verifying control checklist — every touch claim it makes, including real simultaneous multi-touch, was tested and confirmed working.

MineSweepear Island A Ludum Dare 32 hex-grid twist on Minesweeper — drag a finger across the board to draw a scoring path against a 60-second clock, with spatialised audio hinting at nearby mines.

Moon Lander A crisp, neon-lit take on the classic rotate-and-thrust lander genre, with a real on-screen dual-stick that we confirmed lands (and crashes) the ship correctly by touch alone.

Musa's Quest A point-and-click medieval adventure with beautiful flat-vector art, judged 12th of the entire js13k 2023 field for graphics — tap to advance dialogue, tap the right character to interact.

Soyuz 404 A pocket-sized, wordless-but-witty space adventure where you explore a stricken spacecraft by pressing and holding, told entirely in flat vector silhouettes.

T TetrisweeperDesktop by Kertis Jones

The Archivist and the Revolution A critically acclaimed piece of interactive fiction about a chronically ill former surveillance worker in a dying, sealed city. Contains mature content warnings the game itself lets you opt into.
