space huggers is the js13k classic by Frank Force — a run-and-gun platformer built, famously, in just 13 kilobytes of code, playable free in your browser here with nothing to install. The readout at the top of the screen tells you the whole job: a level number, a stock of lives, and a count of enemies still standing. Sweep the fortress, bring that count to zero, and push on to a meaner floor.

What lifts it above a straight arcade shooter is that the level itself is fair game: the blocky terrain chips and crumbles under fire, so cover is temporary, ambushes can be dug, and a sealed corridor stays sealed only until you blast a shortcut through it. Layouts are generated fresh rather than memorized, which keeps every run an improvisation — read the ground, pick a line, and let the explosions redraw the map when the line stops working.

It is a shooter of short, replayable bursts, and losing a life rarely feels like the game's fault — the tools were in your hands the whole time. If this mix of reflex and rubble suits you, Pogglo keeps more free action games within reach.
