About this game

Who's that Bat?

You are a bat, chosen by the bat tribe to free them from a cave-in. Along the way, you are mistaken for a hero... Or maybe not. Flap your way through puzzles and platforms with JRPG-style combat on your way to the castle to save the world from the Vampire King! In this emotional, story-driven RPG, team up with ghosts, goblins, and moths for an adventure that will show you what it really means to be a hero!

A Metroidvania JRPG

Gain new abilities, like echolocation to see in the dark, to unlock new areas and give your platforming more depth. Face down enemies in classic turn-based combat where your party's level and spells will determine whether you survive. Hone your skills as you make your way through puzzles and obstacle courses. Combine your skills to bring strategy in and out of combat. Speak with the tribes of night folk you meet along the way to learn the depths of the tale on which you've embarked.

Fun for Everyone!

Streamlined combat, easy controls, and optional areas mean fun for kids and adults, and for those looking for a casual pickup, or a good challenge.

Handcrafted Pixel Art

The handcrafted pixel art is intended to be reminiscent of an Atari 2600. So nestle in for nostalgic comfort with modern flare. Each sprite was drawn frame-by-frame.

An Epic Soundtrack

With music ranging from Euro-trance to classical, the soundtrack has been carefully crafted to fit every situation from the most dire to the most emotional. Get lost in swirling strings or a thumping synth bass.

Can you become a hero and save the world from the undead nightmare?
