Battle Princess Madelyn is an awesome looking retro title that looks a whole lot like Ghouls N Ghosts from back in the day. Leaving their kickstarter completely shattered, Battle Princess Madelyn follows the journey of a young knight in training, Madelyn, and her ghostly pet dog, Fritzy. They set out on a journey to save her kingdom and her family from the clutches of an evil wizard, muhc like many, many heroes have done before. Obviously set in the vein of Ghouls N' Ghosts and Wonder Boy 3: The Dragon's Trap, the gameplay will be instantly familiar to anyone who spent dozens of quarters swearing at arcade machines during their childhood.
You'll fight your way through graveyards, swamps, castles, countrysides and more, with a self-adjusting difficulty that will keep the challenge going (allegedly). Take a look at the trailer and the features below, and mark it on your Steam wishlist, because this one looks like it might really be something special, while also being a game that makes you pull your hair out with furious rage. Ah, the good ol days....
