Description:

They Bleed Pixels is a fiendishly difficult action platformer inspired by H.P
Lovecraft and classic horror. Rendered in a distinct visual style that blends
pixel art with paper and ink textures, They Bleed Pixels is a singular mix of
intense platforming and fierce beat-em-up action. At the core of its fighting
system is a simple one-button combat scheme with surprising depth and
versatility. Button mashing is discouraged while kicking shadowy monsters into
saws, pits and spikes is rewarded, thanks to a unique system that lets you
earn and place your own checkpoints through stylish kills. The fancier your
kills, the faster you fill the checkpoint meter

Story:
When a young girl arrives at the Lafcadio Academy for Troubled Young Ladies
she's unprepared for the violent nightmares that plague her dreams and
transport her to other worlds. Worse yet, her dreams are intruding into her
waking life, slowly altering her flesh into the demonic form of her night
terrors. Can she destroy the mysterious blood-soaked book that appears to be
the root of her troubles or will her transmutation from girl to clawed horror
become complete?

Key Features:
* Extra tight controls: One-button attack system favors skilled combat over
complicated combos and button-mashing. Super precise platforming controls
let you stop and start on a dime while pulling off gravity-defying dashes
and double jumps
* Eleven massive levels to fight through and explore, each with unique visuals
and music. Unlock additional guest levels from indie game developers based
on their own creations: They Bleed Ponycorns, They Bleed Stardust
* Unique checkpoint system rewards fancy kills with a save spot you can carry
with you. Hold on to it for extra points or drop it right away to preserve
your progress
* Becoming a monster stabbing master with individual level rankings, online
leaderboards for speed and high score as well as over 100 skill-based
achievements. There's lots to aim for after you've completed the game
* Lush pixel art motion comics tell the story a young girl haunted by eldritch
nightmares
* Original electronic soundtrack by DJ Finish Him (aka Shaun Hatton) composed
with synthesizers, unconventional instruments and gadgets often not meant
for musical use
