Amusingly, there are references to God of War and other games in these skulls, and I won’t spoil them. Somewhat reminiscent of Dynamite Headdy, you are able to swap out your skull for a new one that grants different abilities. This is amplified by the fact that various enemies are able to do ranged attacks, effectively stopping you from standing still and encouraging constant movement. It can take a tiny bit of getting used to, but worry not as you’ll be pulling off skillful, choreographed movements which are as fun as they are beautiful. Control is fluid: players are expected to dodge, slash, jump, and switch powers extremely rapidly. Gameplay is action-orientated and fast-paced, pitting our intrepid skeleton against possibly dozens of foes at once. If you’re at all a fan of games like Hades or Dead Cells, you’ll have an idea of what to expect here. Guided by a witch who transforms into a cat, you can expect to die over and over, but you’re already dead and each time you re-die you venture back into the fray, a little stronger and hopefully a little wiser for your misfortunes. It then falls on to you to take on the human threat by slaying their most prominent heroes. Worse yet, it seems that the human race is on the verge of wiping out the demon species entirely.

Skul: The Hero Slayer is a 2D platformer that places players in the role of a tiny little skeleton freshly disassembled from a major battle. We definitely need some more games along these lines, and we’re pleased to announce that Skul: The Hero Slayer comes close to being a full-fledged spiritual sequel, no pun intended.

Those of us who are familiar with freeware PC offerings will also remember a game called Akuji The Demon, featuring a similarly cute playable antagonist. A Metroidvania game, it featured players taking on the role of a vampire wishing to slay the hero in a bizarro twist of the standard platforming schtick. Some of the older gamers among us may remember an old Gameboy title called Kid Dracula.
