Dead Knight

Play the role of the skeletal Sir William as he tries to get revenge even after death in this humorous action platformer game - Dead Knight.

Developed by Backterria, Dead Knight is a Metroidvania game full of dark humor, comedy, action, and randomness. In this game, you play the role of the brave knight, Sir William, who was just killed by his wife. In search of sweet revenge, the skeletal knight must journey through hellish caverns to return to the surface.

Dead Knight v0.1 is a demo version featuring only the first floor of the cave. The game will end just before the Boss Door. The full game can be purchased by paying at least $10 on its official Itch.io page. Dead Knight Pocket Edition features the same gameplay as the main game but with more outdated graphics (similar to games for the Game Boy Color).

The game is noted to be quite challenging with many surprises and secrets - even right from the very beginning. Pick up the sword and help Sir William serve his revenge cold, or hot - whichever you prefer.
