Spooky Pixel Hero: A Retro Horror Platformer Set to Launch August 12th
Appsir, the creators of the acclaimed horror game DERE Vengeance, are back with a new mobile title: Spooky Pixel Hero. This meta-horror platformer plunges players into a chilling 1976 retro game world, where appearances are deceiving.
In Spooky Pixel Hero, you're a game developer tasked by a mysterious agency with debugging a lost platformer from 1976. Prepare for over 120 levels of challenging platforming, all while unraveling a narrative that blurs the lines between the game's reality and your own, hinting at potentially sinister consequences.
The game's retro pixel art style, while perhaps not historically accurate, effectively creates a disturbing and immersive atmosphere reminiscent of Airdorf Games' Faith.
Prepare for a Fright! Spooky Pixel Hero combines intense platforming with a captivating meta-horror story. While purists may debate the graphical authenticity, the stylized pixel art perfectly captures the game's unsettling ambiance.
Given Appsir's track record with DERE Vengeance, expect some genuinely frightening moments despite the seemingly lighthearted title. Spooky Pixel Hero launches August 12th on Google Play and the iOS App Store.
