Atari-Inspired Horror Platformer Debuts on Android

AppSir Games, helmed by Darius Immanuel Guerrero, has launched a new retro horror platformer on Android: Spooky Pixel Hero. While this might seem like a new studio, AppSir Games boasts a successful history, having produced the popular DERE series (DERE Vengeance, DERE EVIL, DERE: Rebirth of Horror), along with titles such as Puzzling Peaks and HopBound.

Unmasking Spooky Pixel Hero

The game plunges you into a clandestine mission orchestrated by a shadowy organization. You step into the shoes of a game developer tasked with repairing a 1976 platformer – a game surprisingly advanced for its time.

Spooky Pixel Hero transports you to the golden age of gaming. This vintage 2D pixel art game seamlessly blends classic platforming with chilling horror, offering a dark narrative alongside its retro gameplay.

With 120 levels, Spooky Pixel Hero provides ample opportunity to navigate treacherous traps and mind-bending puzzles, each step revealing more of the game's unsettling secrets.

The visuals evoke the 70s and 80s, masterfully combining 1-bit and 8-bit pixel art for a nostalgic yet unsettling atmosphere. Intrigued? Check out the trailer below!

Spooky Pixel Hero presents a unique meta-horror experience: debugging an old game while simultaneously unraveling a chilling mystery. The game's unsettling yet engaging world gradually reveals a sinister backstory woven with pixelated spirits, ghostly glitches, and Lovecraftian elements.

Spooky Pixel Hero is free-to-play. Download it now from the Google Play Store!
