Explore a haunted Atari-style game in Spooky Pixel Hero, the follow-up to DERE Vengeance by Appsir

Spooky Pixel Hero: A Retro Horror Platformer from Appsir

Appsir, 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, where appearances deceive and a simple debugging task unravels into something far more sinister.

As a game developer hired by a mysterious agency, you'll navigate over 120 levels of challenging platforming. The narrative transcends the game's boundaries, hinting at unsettling consequences. While the pixel art style might evoke a sense of nostalgia, its deliberate abstraction contributes to the game's unsettling atmosphere, reminiscent of Airdorf games' Faith.

Prepare for a Spooky Surprise!

The blend of hardcore platforming and a mysterious meta-horror story promises a unique gaming experience. While purists might debate the historical accuracy of the graphics, the pseudo-retro pixel art effectively creates a dense and unsettling world.

If Spooky Pixel Hero follows in the footsteps of DERE Vengeance, expect some genuinely frightening moments despite its seemingly lighthearted name. Look for its release on Google Play and the iOS App Store on August 12th!
