About A.R.E.S.: Extinction Agenda

A.R.E.S.: Extinction Agenda is the first chapter in a full featured episodic hardcore action packed side scrolling platformer, in the traditions of retro classics, where you play as Ares, a combat robot created for the sole purpose of saving humanity. Can you live up to the task or will you be reduced to nuts and bolts?
You are Ares, the first Zytron immune robot. A symbol of how far human technology has come, you are the most advanced robot in existence; built to run faster, jump higher, and fire quicker. In addition to these core attributes, your design includes a system for converting spare parts and resources into valuable items, armor, and weaponry. You will need to use everything at your disposal in order to reach and rescue the survivors aboard the Zytron infected space station.

Key features:

  • Play through various locations in the A.R.E.S. universe, each a beautiful, unique, 3D environment with challenging obstacles.
  • You are the ultimate weapon with the ultimate sidekick – Collect the secret items and get power up to become a perfect weapon.
  • Come face to face with colossal opponents, learn their patterns to defeat them in battle.
  • Destroy enemies, collect their parts, and then recycle them to make incredible items, including health packs, ammo, and weapon upgrades.

Already classic platformer
Recommended Jul 4, 2026
I beat this game probably like 13 years ago but overall I enjoyed it. Feels like a Megaman game and is fairly simple. Took me like 3 hours to beat so not super long.

Awesome! old fashioned shooter platformer.
Not recommended Aug 27, 2025
This game seems to be an homage to MegaMan and other bot-related side-scrollers. Unfortunately, the combat mechanics are not quite up to that standard of fairness and difficulty. MULTIPLE times in my short play with this game I found that I would be pushed into enemies during room transitions, and even a few enemies could effectively mob me out by repeatedly triggering a stun animation, even in the early game. There is a collection mechanic to upgrade your abilities, but this was too grindy. Would not recommend for any amount of money you might pay for it.

Not quite Mega Man, but somewhere in its DNA I think there's a bit of it.

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
