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 this might seem like a newcomer studio, AppSir Games boasts a successful history, having produced the popular DERE series (DERE Vengeance, DERE EVIL, DERE: Rebirth of Horror) and other titles such as Puzzling Peaks and HopBound.

Unmasking Spooky Pixel Hero

Players are thrust into a clandestine mission orchestrated by a mysterious organization. You embody a game developer tasked with restoring a 1976 platformer—a game remarkably advanced for its time.

Spooky Pixel Hero transports you to the golden age of gaming. This vintage 2D pixel art game blends classic platforming with chilling horror elements. It's a captivating journey through nostalgic gameplay with a dark, twisting narrative.

With 120 levels, Spooky Pixel Hero offers a substantial horror platforming experience. Navigate perilous traps, solve mind-bending puzzles, and uncover the game's unsettling secrets with each step.

The visuals are a captivating throwback to the 70s and 80s, masterfully combining 1-bit and 8-bit pixel art to create a nostalgic yet eerie atmosphere. Intrigued? Check out the trailer below!
