Spooky Pixel Hero

Spooky Pixel Hero puts you in the role of a game developer hired by a secret organization to repair a lost platformer from 1976, a game that seems far too advanced for its time. As you work through it, you uncover its dark origins and piece together the story behind it, while questioning whether it is really just a game.

The lost platformer

The game contains 120 challenging 2D platforming levels filled with traps and mind-bending puzzles. As you progress, the nightmare grows more dangerous, and you encounter pixelated spirits, ghostly glitches and Lovecraftian horrors lurking within the code.

Pixel horror

Its visuals combine 1-bit and 8-bit pixel art inspired by games from the 1970s and 1980s. The retro platforming and imagery accompany a horror narrative about discovering the truth behind the game.
