Rogue Legacy - Pseudo Retro
Rogue legacy is a roguelike metroidvania style platform game in which you must enter a randomly generated castle, defeat enemies and gather treasure. Upon your death, your heir will try again and use the loot you gathered to improve their chances by unlocking new items and abilities. Each new heir has a character class and various traits, some of which are just there to add some flavour. This adds lots of replay value to a very tough game. The graphics are wonderfully pixelly and will please anything who likes the pixel art aesthetic.
This game was very generously gifted to me by infinitedreams83. Thanks!
Pseudo Retro is a series of let's play videos about modern games that have a retro feel about them, whether graphically or in their playing style.
Intro music is from the classic cracktro by Nemesis (and also apparently the game Heimdall):
