Pixel Shooter

About

Pixel Shooter is a straightforward 2D platformer where you navigate levels by either blasting enemies or dodging past them. Each stage is a tight series of jumps and firefests with simple controls that make it easy to pick up but tricky to master. The focus is on fast action and quick decisions with no frills beyond the retro pixel art visuals and basic level design. Made by Fabio Cunha and released in 2017 this game has a no-nonsense approach that appeals to players looking for short bursts of chaotic shooting. With single player only and no extra modes it’s a lean package that gets the job done without overcomplicating things. The lack of polish shows in some clunky enemy spawns but the direct gameplay keeps it fun for a few quick sessions.
