Free Download: Life Goes On


Look what do we have here, 2 releases in 2 days! We're going stronger than ever. Life Goes On came out on Steam a few hours ago, but we were prepared for this extremely hectic game, and in fact, here it is in the usual free download form.

The game has certainly some similarities with Rogue Legacy, but aside the many knights that you're going to be playing throughout the difficult puzzle levels, this is much more good looking than its big brother. The Graphics for instance are proposed in a seemingly 3D manner, and the sound as well feels extremely appropriate.

In Life Goes On you'll have to sacrifice many young heroes to make the luckiest one go to the next level. Some of them are going to be needed dead on a floor of spikes, some other killed by a big chainsaw, but in the end of the day, all that matters is that one will reach the cup of life put at the end of every puzzle. There's no combat, just a simple platforming experience here, but due to the many difficulties that you're going to face, adding some fighting would've been just way too much!

The free download can be acquired right below here, have fun and don't forget to come back to get all the future We Made Them Free releases.

Free Download: Stick It To The Man!


Finally we found the time and the right resources to release this one, a joyful game that we were really hoping to let you try through our free download services. Stick It To The Man! came out on Steam in late December, and although it seemed quite "childish", I would say, it needed just a couple of minutes to change my mind.

It's a surreal puzzle platformer that offers a great adventure in an unlikely world made entirely of paper. The soundtrack, the graphics, everything is compelling at first sight, but the mechanics that are going to be introduced one by one during the first 20 minutes of gameplay can be considered revolutionary, other that truthfully fun.

A series of unfortunate events make yourself able to read everyone's mind thanks to a weird arm that grew on your forehead. It was meant to be the strongest weapon of the world before it came to you. Needless to say that Stick It To The Man, after the first chapters, will become much more serious, in fact, you're going to be hunted by the baddies of the game until somehow, you'll end up in space. Where supposedly, your story will end.

It may sound quite weird, but that why we're giving you the chance of getting our free download before even trying to buy it.

Free Download: Teslagrad


Christmas is coming, and since we have no idea if this may indeed be our last release for this December, let us wish you a MERRY CHRISTMAS. But it doesn't really feel enough, so here we go with another free download! Teslagrad has been released on all the major digital platforms now and I'm not ashamed of declaring I've personally been tracking its progress since it was a tiny bugged little alpha.

It's a puzzle platformer that shines for its beautiful hand drawn visuals (the backgrounds are astounding) but also because of its cleverness. If you've never been good with physics in high school this game might not be suitable to your likes, as you're going to be dealing with magnetic powers granted to the main character by a magical glove. I know, that sound quite weird, but as you dive in, things will become way more clear.

In addition, while pondering on complex riddles that you're going to face once you'll pass the first couple of levels, Teslagrad will silently tell its story, a tale that can be sensed, rather than read. I must admit, I'm not the kind of person that loves puzzles; ok, I hate them because they make me feel stupid and yet, with this game coming as a free download I had no troubles at all! So don't worry about what you're about to get into, the game has certainly a casual spirit while still being a masterpiece of visual narrative.

Get Teslagrad for free now! Have fun and we'll see you later.

Free Download: Ittle Dew


What's up folks? Today I'm here to talk about a free downloadable game I personally enjoy like i enjoy very few of those lately: Ittle Dew.


Being a huge fan of the Zelda series myself, as soon as i saw the first screenshot i thought "I couldn't miss this one", and that's why we're offering you the free download. The game itself may look like a straight Zelda clone, and we had some many of them through the years. Fact is this time thing are different: Ittle is more of a anti-hero, she starts off with a wooden stick instead of sword and she speaks a lots, really not like our old Link pal. But the one who cannot really keep his mouth shut is Tippsie, a flying fox who's meant to be Navi's parody, who's constantly making fun of Ittle Dew source of inspiration: just think that, the first time Ittle picks up a "heart" from a dead enemy, she's literally eating it, and Tippsie reacts with an increasing disgusted look.


The game itself is basically a huge puzzle game disguised as an adventure game: you'll find yourself crawling toward dungeons to push blocks around, pull levers and basically set things on fire. You'll encounter various enemies, each one with its own cartoonish look, and some of them also have their own personalities. Fact is the fighting system feels broken to me, and that's because you cannot move while swinging your weapons, ending up in a disappointing bet on predicting where the enemy is going to move hoping he runs into your sword, instead of smashing the shit out of him.



The puzzles might not be very imaginative but they are well designed and often have multiple solutions. Bosses are well designed, and, despite the game itself being rather short, if you are willing to take you time to collect everything you need you might get access to the optional Master Cave. To sum up, Ittle Dew is a great little game with an amazing graphic style and a tremendous sarcastic mood, and it's going to have you glued to your screen at least for a good 3 hours. Try it, it's free!

Free Download: Toki Tori 2+


Feel the urge to download something for free? Here's the game that suits your need: Toki Tori 2+. I know, it doesn't look so hardcore but, well, you don't judge a book by its cover (unless they used the movie poster as a cover, in that case fuck it), don't you?


You're a fluffy bird on quest to save the world. In order to do so, you have to jump into a journey through endless puzzles to enter the core of your island. The game starts off easing you into the process of figuring things out for yourself, lures you into a false sense of security: soon you will get no help, no tips, choices get unclear.


What you want to do is to use your two given skills, stomping and whistling, to manipulate your surroundings and the other looney animals to clear up your path. While you enjoy your gaming experience in Toki Tori 2+ you will learn how to deal with other objects, how the other creatures respond to your actions, and soon you'll find yourself in need to plan ahead or die. And you're so fluffy and cute you don't really want to end up teared apart or brutally murdered.

Toki Tori 2+'s world is really big and lets you try different routes: you can either follow the path or explore off road for other puzzles and a lot of hiddend secrets you can only discover by leaving the main course. The fun of the game is exactly what drives it, figuring everything out instead of having handed to you. You can even build your own levels and and getting other players to test them!


Summing up, despite its cute and girly graphics, Toki Tori 2+ is an amazing platformer that calls for your brain to work at a full regime. You have the free download right below, it's time to oil up that old skull of yours!

Free Download: The Swapper


Are you the real you? The free download we offer you today is a peculiar platform puzzle game that kicks in some interesting existential questions.

Puzzles are based around a simple mechanism: you're an astronaut who's given a gun that allows himself to make up to four clones of herself. When you move, clones move along. When you jump, they jump. Is it all here? Of course not, as the game's name suggests, The Swapper, after a certain moment in the game you'll be able to transfer your consciousness into it, with all the questions that this implies. 

The free download will allow your to face increasingly difficult puzzles, from the simple task to place your clones on certain pressure plates in order to open a door, through placing items and blocks entering fields that give you more abilities, to reverse gravity puzzles. And, you know, the swapper thing. Most puzzles are brilliantly designed so that the clever trick you have to learn in order to solve one will become part of the needed skill set for later puzzles. 

The Swapper's beautiful visuals, haunting music, and sparse sound design allow it to maintain a wonderfully dark, gothic atmosphere throughout that enhances the introspective questioning this games brings in. Overall, it's totally worth a try, even more since it's on free download.
