Spooky Pixel Hero Is An Atari-Inspired Retro Horror Platformer Now Out On Android

AppSir Games, helmed by Darius Immanuel Guerrero, has unleashed a new retro horror platformer on Android: Spooky Pixel Hero. While the studio might seem new to some, they're veterans, responsible for the popular DERE series (DERE Vengeance, DERE EVIL, DERE: Rebirth of Horror), Puzzling Peaks, and HopBound.

Meet Spooky Pixel Hero

The game plunges you into a clandestine mission orchestrated by a mysterious organization. You're a game developer tasked with fixing a 1976 platformer – one that's surprisingly advanced for its time.

Spooky Pixel Hero is a nostalgic trip back to the golden age of gaming. This vintage 2D pixel art game seamlessly blends retro charm with chilling horror, offering a captivating narrative woven into classic platforming gameplay.

With 120 levels, Spooky Pixel Hero provides ample opportunity to navigate perilous traps and mind-bending puzzles, gradually unveiling the game's dark secrets.

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