Get your hands on SuteF. That was what you look for in a freeware game.

Eternal Daughter

You play a small girl with a sword attack that can be charged to shoot... and you do stuff... Standard Platformer really, but somewhat fun.
Not exactly a sword attack. But yeah, it's definitely worth playing. Some Most bosses are a total bitch to beat, but oh-so-satisfying when you figure it out.

Ustxu Iceraped the Frigid Crystal of Slaughter was a glacier titan. It was the only one of its kind. A gigantic feathered carp composed of crystal glass. It has five mouths full of treacherous teeth, enormous clear wings, and ferocious blue eyes. Beware its icy breath! Ustxu was associated with oceans, glaciers, boats, and murder.

Bonesaw is a fun platformer reminiscent of kirby games... albiet with hockey players.
It's very much more like the earlier Kirbys if they were made to be brutally difficult. And the entire reason for playing the game is the Bonesaw mechanic. Even just the transformation scene while you have kickass music playing.

 I don't think Hero Core was mentioned. It's a fun game, and don't mind the graphics. They are deceptively good for the restrictions in the style.

Buck up friendo, we're all on the level here.
I would bet money Andrew has edited things retroactively, except I can't prove anything because it was edited retroactively.

Then again, I consider Infinity to be overly ambitious, something that might easily spell it's downfall.
