A dedicated PlayStation fan has finally brought their 26-year-old idea to life with House Of Decay, a 3D action platformer that combines elements of the Metroidvania genre with a dark, retro atmosphere.
Players journey into a world of demons, exploring 8 unique locations, battling a wide variety of enemies, and uncovering hidden secrets. As they progress, their character becomes stronger, and the sense of progression grows more meaningful.

As the game continues to evolve, players can expect a rich and immersive experience, with a unique blend of retro aesthetics and dynamic gameplay. The developer's passion and dedication to the project are evident, and House Of Decay is definitely worth checking out for fans of the Metroidvania genre.
