The first in the Tiny Pixels series from Eastasiasoft, titled Ninpo Blast, was a decent little shoot ‘em up that had us dodging bullets like there was no tomorrow – check out our full review here.
Now, Eastasiasoft are back, with Tiny Pixels Vol. 2 – Stormy Knights introducing a retro 2D sidescroller to the mix.
Slash & Dash
Now available on Xbox, PlayStation, Switch and PC, Tiny Pixels Vol. 2 – Stormy Knights is a retro-inspired side-scrolling adventure that sees you don the metal-clad boots of a brave knight on a mission to save the princess.
Or princesses, in fact, with a number of damsels being captured by monsters across the continent.
You’ll therefore need to equip your sword and shield, and do battle against the many goblins and lizardmen that defend each castle. Combat is a case of slashing, shielding, and dodging in order to protect your own health bar.
Players will also need to collect golden medals littered throughout each level, which will grant the ability to upgrade your skills across three distinct skill trees. There’s also a roguelike element to proceedings, with an infinite number of trials available.
See how far you can venture before succumbing to the hordes!
