About Terry's Other Games
Hello there! I'm Terry Cavanagh, and I'm a game designer. Maybe you've played some of my games before? I made the C64-inspired gravity-flipping platformer VVVVVV, the minimal action game Super Hexagon, and the dice placement dungeon crawler Dicey Dungeons.Those are my commercial releases. But I've been making games since I was a kid, and along the way I've worked on a lot of stuff! Most of these games are very hard to get running nowadays, even some of the ones that are only a few years old - computers change and things slowly break. Making these other games has always been a really important part of how I work, and they include some of my very favourite projects. So I decided to bring some of the best of them together in one big easy-to-play collection, as "Terry's Other Games"! It's a little window into what making indie games has been like for me, from where I started to where I am now.
So what's in it?
The collection includes a few reasonably substantial games, including:- Don't Look Back: a retro platformer from the Flash game era
- At a Distance: an exploration/puzzle game for two players
- Naya's Quest: an isometric puzzle game about weird perspectives
- Tiny Heist: a fun and fairly tricky roguelike stealth game
- Mr Platformer: he jump on the platforms

✦ AI summary
This collection preserves Terry Cavanagh's earlier Flash games with several standout puzzle experiences, particularly Naya's Quest which players consider worth the price alone, plus nostalgic favorites like Don't Look Back and Grab Them by the Eyes. However, the quality is uneven across the bundle—while some games are creative and rewarding, others feel frustrating or simply not fun, so it works best as a nostalgia purchase for longtime fans or those specifically interested in the highlighted titles rather than as a complete collection.
Terry makes great games!2 found this helpful
Only get it if you like all other games from Terry Cavanagh, especially VVVVVV and Super Hexagon. I loved Dicey Dungeons, but most of these small games are nothing like it. Naya's Quest, despite being annoying, was a good puzzle. Terry should've put NG+ mechanics as normal game (too ez) and the mechanics of normal playthrough (fml) into NG+ tbh. Grab Them by the Eyes and Don't Look Back were also fun. Special shoutout (and a laugh) to A Proper Cup of Tea. Everything else was either unplayable or most often not fun (too frustrating and not rewarding enough) to be worth my time. Thankfully got it on sale.2 found this helpful
i got this just for the greatest tiniest roguelike by the name of tinyheist because the deafult itchio version stopped working for me and hell yeah! it works perfectly in this collection! other than that the little indie commodore aesthetics are such a treat. can't wait to experience everything this has to offer apart from heisting :D1 found this helpful
I played so many of Terry's games from middle school through college. Grab Them By The Eyes, Naya's Quest, that fast box puzzle, Don't Look Back, even Tiny Heist. Even though I was awful at it. Paying ten bucks to relive my childhood is worth every penny. 10/10, the tea needs more sugar.
I first found out about Terry through "Don't Look Back". It means a lot to me that I get to experience that game again on my desktop computer. The other games are a huge plus, because it's feels nice to finally be able to play games that were Flash, without having to install some weird or unknown plugin. I've wanted to try Naya's Quest for years, so that's the next thing I will dive into.
grab them by the eyes is actually great
