AppSir Games, helmed by Darius Immanuel Guerrero, has unleashed a new retro-horror platformer onto the Android landscape: Spooky Pixel Hero. While this might seem like a newcomer studio, AppSir Games boasts a successful history, having previously delivered hits such as the DERE series (DERE Vengeance, DERE EVIL, DERE: Rebirth of Horror) and other titles including Puzzling Peaks and HopBound.
The game plunges you into a clandestine mission orchestrated by a shadowy organization. You embody a game developer tasked with the restoration of a 1976 platformer – a game surprisingly ahead of its time.
Spooky Pixel Hero transports you to the golden age of gaming. This vintage 2D pixel art game masterfully blends classic platforming with chilling horror, offering a dark narrative woven into its gameplay.
With 120 levels, Spooky Pixel Hero provides a substantial horror platforming experience. These levels are packed with perilous traps and mind-bending puzzles, each step bringing you closer to uncovering the game's twisted secrets.
The visuals are a captivating throwback to the 70s and 80s, seamlessly merging 1-bit and 8-bit pixel art to create a nostalgic yet unsettling atmosphere. Intrigued? Check out the trailer below!
Spooky Pixel Hero uniquely combines debugging an antiquated game with a meta-horror experience. The game crafts a disturbing yet engaging world. As you progress, you'll unravel a sinister backstory populated by pixelated spirits, ghostly glitches, and Lovecraftian terrors.
The game is free-to-play. If intrigued, download it from the Google Play Store.
