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 of the genre, responsible for hits like the DERE series (DERE Vengeance, DERE EVIL, DERE: Rebirth of Horror), Puzzling Peaks, and HopBound.

Meet the Spooky Pixel Hero

You're thrust into a clandestine mission by a mysterious organization, stepping into the shoes of a game developer tasked with repairing a 1976 platformer—one that's surprisingly advanced for its time.

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

With 120 levels packed with traps and mind-bending puzzles, Spooky Pixel Hero provides a substantial gameplay experience. Each level unveils more of the game's unsettling secrets, drawing you deeper into its twisted mystery.

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