Spooky Retro Horror Platformer Debuts on Android

AppSir Games, helmed by Darius Immanuel Guerrero, has unleashed a new retro horror platformer onto Android: Spooky Pixel Hero. While the studio might seem new to some, they're veterans of the genre, having crafted hits like the DERE series (DERE Vengeance, DERE EVIL, DERE: Rebirth of Horror) and titles such as Puzzling Peaks and HopBound.

Unmasking Spooky Pixel Hero

You're thrust into a clandestine mission by a mysterious organization, stepping into the shoes of a game developer tasked with repairing a 1976 platformer. Interestingly, the in-game title appears remarkably advanced for its era.

Spooky Pixel Hero is a nostalgic trip back to the golden age of gaming. A vintage 2D pixel art adventure infused with chilling horror, it delivers a classic platforming experience cloaked in a dark, intriguing narrative.

With 120 levels, Spooky Pixel Hero offers substantial gameplay for a horror platformer. Expect perilous traps, mind-bending puzzles, and a journey that steadily unveils the game's unsettling secrets.

The visuals are a captivating blend of 1-bit and 8-bit pixel art, evoking the aesthetics of the 70s and 80s while creating a uniquely eerie atmosphere. Intrigued? Check out the trailer below!

Spooky Pixel Hero offers a unique meta-horror experience: debugging an ancient game while navigating a disturbing, yet engaging, world. As you progress, you'll unravel a sinister backstory woven with pixelated spirits, ghostly glitches, and Lovecraftian terrors.

The game is free-to-play. If intrigued, download it from the Google Play Store.
