Super Crate Box is a shoot 'em up reminiscent of arcade games. It takes place on a single screen as enemies endlessly pour in from the top, and the player has to try to collect crates that spawn randomly around the screen while managing the amount of enemies. Early version was known as "Crates From Hell" before being developed into a full Vlambeer title.

Many weapons that appear in Nuclear Throne make their debut here including the Flamethrower, Grenade Launcher, Revolver and Minigun. The Disc Gun also appears with the unlock text "We hereby sincerely apologize." as it is a weapon that can also kill the player. It is later referenced as a NT achievement.

Other unlocks that reappear in Nuclear Throne includes a Robot character and arguably a Chicken characater. There is a hardmode called SFMT that gets referenced in many other Vlambeer titles, with the unlock text "Play this when the kids are in bed."

Following the success of Super Crate Box, Vlambeer was approached by Devolver Digital and Croteam who were looking for indie devs interested in making spin-offs for the Serious Sam series. This would lead to three Serious Sam indie spin-offs being made with each of the devs own unique approaches, the one by Vlambeer being Serious Sam: The Random Encounter.

Gameplay consisted of a somewhat turn-based RPG in which the player would have a planning phase on how to attack, and then an attacking phase where they could try to dodge enemy projectiles while continually running away from massive enemy hordes.

Gun Godz was initially developed for Venus Patrol, a now inactive gaming blog site that was launched with a kickstarter. One of the reward tiers included exclusive access to a new Vlambeer game, which only released to the full public nearly two years afterwards.

Gameplay is a boomer shooter styled FPS where the player tries to escape prison on Venus through multiple different levels using weapons such as the Shotgun, Minigun and Bazooka. The final area gets reused in Nuclear Throne as YV's Mansion, and all the enemies within the mansion originate from Gun Godz.

The final boss of the game is the Gun God who has a similar arsenal to the player. He reappears in Nuclear Throne now known as Yung Venuz.

Ridiculous Fishing is Vlambeer's main foray into mobile gaming. It is a fishing game where any fish caught are flung into the air and needs to be shot in order to cash them in, which can then be used for continual upgrades to fishing gear and weapons.

Previously made unavailable on Google Play due to a false Malware claim. Whether this is the reason the app is still unavailable is unknown.

Ridiculous Fishing EX is an updated version of the game released for the Apple Arcade, including upgraded graphics and many additional features.

Development for LUFTRAUSERS began throughout 2012 as Vlambeer planned to have another game published through Devolver Digital. While development of the game largely ended by mid-2013 as focus shifted towards creating Nuclear Throne, the game would not see a release until 2014 due to certification troubles for a Playstation release. This would be the first Vlambeer game to be available on console.

Gameplay consists of a shoot em' up bullet hell as the player partakes in chaotic aerial dogfights. Combo for score can be gained by continually killing enemies quickly, while health can only be regained by stopping firing. There are missions in-game that unlocks new parts, and the return of the difficult SFMT mode.

Full list of versions and their differences here.

Vlambeer first showed off the game without a title during PAX West 2018, and it was officially announced as ULTRABUGS in January 2019 for PAX South.

On March 20th, 2019 during a Nindie showcase ULTRABUGS was teased as a part of the Vlambeer Arcade for the Nintendo Switch, to be released within the same year. While the arcade was ultimately cancelled, ULTRABUGS is still slated for release. The latest news is of April 2024, during JW's acquisition of Vlambeer he shared that the game will be released after an unannounced project is finished.

Radical Fishing was Vlambeer's first game ever created, though Super Crate Box seemed to have gotten a release first. Radical Fishing was made for the now defunct bored.com which was a site for flash games.

Released on Newgrounds in December 2010 where it is still playable today. It would later receive a mobile release with the much more expanded Ridiculous Fishing.

A mini-project made during the PETA vs Super Meat Boy drama in support of Team Meat. Gameplay was a parody of Super Meat Boy as the player took control of a puppy in a platforming level with saws with a puppy girl needing to be rescued and a collectable bone.

However the game itself was unwinnable, and dying as the puppy led to a comedic amount of blood bursting all over the screen. The Vlambeer website itself had a counter for the amount of puppies killed. The last number tracked via Wayback Machine archiving was over 2 billion puppies killed by 2021.

Used to be downloadable via the Vlambeer website, still accessible via the Wayback Machine.

A game made for the Global Game Jam 2011 in the Netherlands, GlitchHiker was a top-down game where the the player would run around a map with randomly spawning blocks while trying to collect coins. However, everything in the game was made purposefully glitchy as the screen would randomly tear and the blocks and players would constantly have glitchy effects.

Players who preformed poorly would cause the game's code to 'degrade' making it much more glitchy and unplayable, while those who scored at least 100 points would extend the game's lifespan. Once a certain threshold was crossed the game would execute a code that made itself unplayable forever.

As the game was meant to die the game is no longer accessible and died by January 31st, 2011. Some footage of particularly glitchy gameplay can be viewed on YouTube.

KARATE is a simple game made by Vlambeer in under two hours. Enemies continually spawn on the screen and the player can use multiple different karate moves in order to kill them to rack up points, but is a game over if any enemies can land a hit.

Used to be downloadable via the Vlambeer website, still accessible via the Wayback Machine.

Dinosaur Zookeeper was a game created for Adult Swim games. It is no longer accessible on the website nor the wayback machine, but still exists via Flashpoint.

A single screen game where the player must manage a park full of dinosaurs that each have different traits and must be properly managed to not kill too many park guests or other dinosaurs. Successful days increases income which can be used for tools or weapons to better manage the dinosaurs.

A simplistic first person game created in two days where the player will wander around a snowy area looking for an elusive Yeti to shoot and kill. The Yeti blends in well with the snow and constantly runs from the player, making it difficult to find.

Similarly the Yeti from Nuclear Throne will flee from the player if they ever draw near, however it is unclear if it is a reference to this game.

Used to be downloadable via the Vlambeer website, still accessible via the Wayback Machine.

A game developed over the course of 8 hours for a Dutch television show featuring video games. It is a co-op twin stick shooter in which the player controls Santa and shoots presents at children on the screen.

It was posted on the Advent of Indies website, a now defunct website where a new indie game was posted daily for December. The download link is dead even in Wayback Machine, making the game currently inaccessible. Some footage exists online via YouTube.

A simple top-down shooter made in about an hour where enemy mechs are trying to destroy Neo Tokyo, and the player pilots a Techno King in order to kill them.

Used to be downloadable via the Vlambeer website, still accessible via the Wayback Machine.

Full section at top of page. The prototype of what later became Nuclear Throne made for a MOJAM charity event. Later released in December 2013 on Itch.io

FFFLOOD Prototype was released as a parting gift from Vlambeer when they announced their shutdown. The full story is on the linked Itch page, but a basic summary is that it was one of the earliest ideas for a Vlambeer game following Super Crate Box. It never saw an official release as problems with core gameplay kept it constantly on the backburner for years, as other projects took priority.

A top-down adventure that only uses black and white colors, Minit has a central gimmick of only having 60 seconds to live and progress in the world can be made during this time. There are multiple checkpoints around the world as mini-puzzles must be solved to progress through one minute at a time.

Disc Room is a top-down game with a heavy focus on difficulty. Each room features different discs and hazards with their own unique mini-challenges. Abilities can be unlocked that lets rooms be approached in different manners, with quite a few secrets to discover.

A spin-off to Minit that was made for charity. It is a top-down racing game where the player only has 10 seconds to drive as far as possible, but can collect coins to extend the timer. Coins can be used to buy upgrades which helps runs go even further.
