Reception

Product is in a very raw state. Lots of things dont work properly. Overall looks are more that of a homemeade flash game rather than a oldschool one. Contols are cluncky and default scheme is very uncomfortable and you cant even find a START button on the gamepad (had to use Enter on the keyboard) This is an Early Access level of quality not a relaease...

Retro Inspired Game that Misses the Mark Would you rather watch than read? Me too: https://youtu.be/FlHO5x0TSXk Pixel Devil is HEAVILY inspired by games like Megaman and platformers of old. While it's a great idea on the surface, it unfortunately falls really flat when you get into how the game controls, functions and plays. The platforming is frustrating...

Nice NES-era-style platformer. If it was on NES back in the day, it would be a straight hit. If you happened not to be poisoned by modern day gaming expectations, you would love it, and you'll enjoy it even if you do, this one doesn't hate you like some old NES titles do

The game's quality is very low:
- music is primitive;
- level design is random and uninspired;
- no interesting game mechanics;
- pixel graphics is done in very lazy manner: even nes games from 1987 have much better detalisation.
I would recommend to stay away from this product!

To keep it short:

+ Its a nice little (Megaman) Jump and Run
+ Fair Checkpoints (when you get hang with controls)
+ Its cheap

- some Parts of Lvls are realy Tricky (But not so bad, unlimited Lives)
- no circling Supweapons with Sholderbuttons

If you like nice little cheap Games....
Grab it
