Top Hat Studios Spring 2026 Showcase – 21 April 2026
Motorslice (PC, PS5, Xbox Series)
Set within the crumbling remains of a vast megastructure, a girl named “P” arrives with a single objective: destroy every machine inside. Armed with nothing but a chainsaw, she must bring this place down by any means necessary. Parkour through the ruins of a megastructure, climb massive bosses, and hunt down every piece of construction equipment in this slice of life game with immaculate vibes.
It release on 5 May 2026.
Delivery Must Complete (PC)
Blending style with speed at stratospheric heights, DELIVERY MUST COMPLETE is a cel-shaded aerial roguelike, mashing together the deep combos of character-action games with the breakneck intensity of arcade flight dogfighting. You’re a Courier with one job: deliver a package through the heart of a chaotic warzone. Pilot your aircraft with reckless abandon, drift, boost, and blast your way through elite fighter squadrons, blimps, mechs, and even dragons. Along the way, unlock upgrades to make your plane even more powerful.
Well Dweller (PC)
From the creator of indie hits Crypt Custodian and Islets comes Well Dweller, a new dark, bizarre, twisted fairy-tale metroidvania. Play as Glimmer – a tiny bird armed with a matchstick – who must burn the wicked queen to save his family before they become part of her royal gown. Venture forth into a whimsical but morbid fairy-tale landscape, and battle terrifying beasts whilst gaining new abilities to expand your world. Discover secrets, mysteries, and the riddles that rot in the underbelly of this wretched queendom.
A demo releases on 23 April 2026.
Metamorphosis (PC)
Top Hat Studios officially announced they are partnering with developer luxan for METAMORPHOSIS, a brutal 2D pixel art horror action game focused on exploration of a dead world using any tools at your disposal. You play as Aria, a nun branded sinner, seeking absolution. Journey toward the Golden Star to reach the last paradise left in the world.
The Backworld (PC)
A surreal, story-rich, horror RPG, The Backworld plunges players into a cosmic adventure where reality is crumbling. As you slip between dimensions, you’ll explore over 100 diverse areas ranging from terrifying, liminal spaces to traditional JRPG-inspired fantasy worlds to horrors beyond your wildest imagination. Survival requires strategic decision-making; whether that means engaging in combat, sneaking past threats, or utilizing environmental hazards is up to you.
Along the way, keep an eye on your sanity; your experiences with increasingly surreal horrors will affect your sanity and dynamically alter gameplay, causing characters to lose control or the player to experience hallucinations such as fake NPCs and UI glitches.
A demo is available on Steam now.
Hallow Blade (PC)
A dark fantasy first person action-adventure, players assume the role of a wanderer who forms a fateful, unbreakable bond with the Hallow Blade, an ancient, possessed sword that hungers for revenge – and souls. Focused on strategic, fast-paced first-person combat and deep exploration, you are tasked with overcoming the wrath of a cursed kingdom and its denizens. Hunt powerful foes and feed their souls to your weapon, as it evolves, unlocking new forms and abilities necessary in your journey to destroy the kingdom’s curse.
Twinkle’s Galactic Tour (PC)
From the developer of the charming, PS1-style retro tribute game Frogun, Twinkle’s Galactic Tour is a vibrant 3D adventure styled in colorful, 90s low-poly anime aesthetics. The title is a 3D adventure game that infuses musical rhythm into its platforming core. Play as Twinkle, an aspiring singer, as she travels the galaxy rescuing her fans following a disaster at her debut concert. True to its musical core, the game uniquely syncs enemy movements, platforms, and items to the beat and melody of the soundtrack, creating a dynamic platforming experience.
Becrowned (PC)
A psychological, surreal survival horror which blurs the line between medieval dark fantasy and rotting industrial horror. Players step into the shoes of Richard Torrance, a cold and rational man whose pursuit of happiness has led him into a bizarre, dark ages nightmare ruled by the seemingly absent “Omen Raven”, and where his own fears seem to creep into reality from a distant past.
It’s aiming to release in the autumn of 2026.
And that’s everything from the Top Hat Studios 2026 Spring Showcase. What did you think? Any highlights for you there?
