Features
- Jump and shoot your way through over 70 platforming stages riddled with secrets!
- Collect gauntlet upgrades to power up your attacks, and expand your arsenal with magical sub-weapons for adaptive combat approaches.
- Weighty projectile slinging rewards careful, strategic gameplay while punishing mindless button mashing.
- Unlock additional characters with unique gameplay styles!
- Explore 4+ expansive and diverse world maps—choose your own routes, visit towns inhabited by NPCs, and even discover hidden stages!
- A wide variety of locales brimming with an even wider array of enemies ensures your journey won't get stale.
- Vibrant graphics adhere to an authentic 8-bit color palette, but the use of more simultaneous colors and a widescreen aspect ratio results in eye-catching detail not seen in the classic era.
- A driving chiptune soundtrack features catchy melodies with all the beeps and boops you know and love!
- Uncover the mystery of an ancient evil and the "heroic wizard" who sealed it away. This fresh take on a tried-and-true premise tackles themes of redemption and retribution, while never forgetting to make you laugh—or at least crack a smile!
