About the Game

In Demon Crush, you become Kenzo Yagimoto as he defends his home from an otherworldly evil returning from the ancient past. Master the weapon arts of the Yagimoto clan to save your beloved Gochima village from the burning blades of the warlord Nezumo and the dark secrets concealed in his hidden fortress! Only then can you confront his long-forgotten demon master, and save your world from being consumed by the endless hunger of demon hordes.

Demon Crush is a fast-paced 2D sidescrolling combat-platformer that blends expressive, combo-based fighting mechanics with the charming visuals and intuitive controls of a bygone era. Play as multiple characters, master different weapons and combat styles, and plunge into adrenaline-soaked action in a fantasy Japanese setting. Wall jumps, air combos, grappling hook traversal, super moves, chaotic battles, death-defying leaps, and razor-sharp duels to the death against inhuman, villainous bosses all await you!
