BlitWorks

BlitWorks at a Glance

BlitWorks is a Spanish company that began operations in 2012 and has remained active through 2023. Their catalog on PlayPile contains 15 titles, with the majority appearing as published works rather than original development. The studio started its career focusing on porting games to different systems, handling versions of FEZ, Super Meat Boy, Jet Set Radio, and Divinity: Original Sin 2 for PC and consoles. Over time, they shifted toward publishing indie games themselves, such as Fight'N Rage, Vagante, and Slipstream. They also served as co-developers on Spelunky 2. The company shows a clear preference for specific genres within their portfolio. Indie titles make up the bulk of their output with 11 games, followed closely by Adventure games at 10. Platformers, puzzles, and arcade games also appear frequently. Their work spans almost every major platform, with PlayStation 4 holding the top spot with 13 releases. Nintendo Switch and PC follow with 12 and 11 titles respectively. Xbox One has 10 releases, while Mac, Linux, and iOS each have six. They have also touched on older systems like PlayStation Vita and Xbox 360. Quality trends for BlitWorks are generally positive. Their average rating across 12 rated titles sits at 75.7 out of 100. The breakdown shows three great games scoring over 80, while nine others fall into the good range between 60 and 79. There are no mixed or poor ratings in their tracked history. Spelunky holds the highest score at 88.6 from 2012, followed by Super Meat Boy and Spelunky 2, both at 83.9. The Journey Down: Chapter Three and Jet Set Radio also scored well above 75. Output has slowed in recent years compared to their start. They released 11 games during the 2010s but only four titles so far in the 2020s. Recent releases include Train Valley 2: Community Edition in late 2023 and Everhood: Eternity Edition in September of that year. Fight'n Rage saw a limited edition release in early 2023. While their focus on porting helped them build a reputation early on, their current strategy leans heavily toward publishing established indie properties across multiple consoles.
