Listen! The end is nigh!! Hear my words and prepare! An ancient cult has set foot in our lands! They call themselves The Sons of Dawn and pray to some dark elder god. They have started recruiting people for their cause all over the country. I fear that they want to try to awaken something which should be left sleeping. Something dangerous and sinister! Something that might destroy us all. Spend your last of days wisely…

It’s up to you and three heroes of your choice to defend the township of Pixton against the forces of evil. But it’s not all gloom and doom. You’ll be entering a randomized world of hilarious events and off-the-wall NPCs, each with a significant storyline that leads to all kinds of cool stuff! 

There are also…well…thirteen deadly dungeons. Okay, so parts of the game are gloomy and doomy. And oh yeah, you’ll encounter epic boss fights as well.

In Pixel Heroes, no two playthroughs will be the same. Each new game will feature tons of random events, and you’ll be making important choices. You’ll even get to visit a graveyard and learn which choices of your compatriots turned out to be fatal.

Hmmm…I guess I forgot to mention permadeath. Come on…you know you want it. So there it is.

Pixel Heroes: Byte & Magic is set for release on Steam for PC, Mac and Linux on February 6, 2015.
