“More About Axe, Bow & Staff

Axe, Bow & Staff is a pixel art hybrid combining runner-sidescroller mechanics with RPG elements and zany multiplayer gameplay.

Inspired by games like Lost Vikings, Adventure Island, Cadilacs and Dinosaurs and Captain Commando, etc, Axe, Bow & Staff evokes the nostalgia of the favorite games of your youth: updated with faster graphics, multi-player replayablilty, and goofy gameplay that’s easy to learn but many times harder to master!

Main Features:

• Rockin’ Pixel Art
  It’s like the 80s married the 90s and they never went away! Axe, Bow & Staff brings you the best in these pixel art classics-to-be. You saw it here first!
• Chiptunes Originals
  More cheer than you can shake twelve reindeers at in this catchy & original chiptune soundtrack!
• Bespoke Like a Boss
  30+ hand-crafted levels with various challenges and fun, fun, fun!
• Multiple Playthroughs
  Have you heard the saying, “A procedurally-generated level is like multiple playthroughs in the bank”? Neither have we, and yet here it is bringing more bang for your buck!
• A Matrix of Options for Customization
  20+ skill upgrades and 70+ items is, like, a really good way to bling-bling your characters. Which makes YOU, like, the equivalent of a fantasy game gangsta.
• Single Player, Local Multiplayer, Online Multiplayer
  You COULD play it all by yourself, comfortably alone in your underwear with a beer hat wrapped around your head, or you could sit there with your so-called friends and play multiplayer locally. Or team-up with online play. Whatever. We support that, too.
• Racing Mode
  Introducing side-scrolling Mario Kart! If you are tired of the co-op, try “testing” your friendship in the Racing Mode!
