Hero Boy

Hero Boy is a 2D beat-em-up horror game set inside the notebook of Max, an 8-year-old boy chronicling a zombie outbreak. A daydreamer who struggles with school bullies and has difficulty making friends, Max is caught in the outbreak as the world around him falls apart. His usually fun doodles grow more twisted, and you fight imaginary and real enemies to survive.

You use combos to deal more damage and add effects such as increased knockback and stuns. Defeating enemies fills your charge meter; when it is full, you can use a special move. You unlock additional special moves as the game progresses, each with different benefits.

Enemies

A wide variety of enemies use melee, ranged or area-of-effect attacks. You face them in different combinations as you progress.
