Spooky Pixel Hero: A Retro Horror Platformer Coming 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 1976 retro game world where appearances deceive.

In Spooky Pixel Hero, you're a game developer tasked by a mysterious agency with debugging a lost platformer. Prepare for a challenging experience with over 120 levels of hardcore platforming, all while unraveling a story that transcends the game itself, hinting at sinister consequences.

The game's retro pixel art style, while perhaps not historically accurate, effectively creates a disturbing atmosphere, reminiscent of Airdorf games' Faith. The blend of cute aesthetics and unsettling undertones creates a unique and intriguing experience.
