This comic booky vampire slayer looks like a ton of fun, in that sweet 2D kind of way, and the gothic horror setting is just icing on the cake as far as I'm concerned. Damsel is set up to be a challenging, fast-paced, arcade platformer in a dark cartoon/comic book world. You'll be fast dashing (think Bloodrayne) through colorful arenas, staking vampires, rescuing hostages, disarming bombs, hacking servers and more as you work to take on the Red Mist, a powerful vampire corporation that’s adding a new (and illegal) ingredient to their popular vampire drink. It's up to you to be a badass, uncover the secrets of the new recipe (it's human blood, obviously) and stop the corporation from achieving their ultimate plan, which is, of course, the total dominance of vampires on Earth!
“We’ve been creating Damsel for nearly four years, it has been wonderful to see the game evolve with new ideas and refining the game’s identity“ said Megan Summers, Producer and Quality Assurance Lead, Screwtape Studios. “Players have been enjoying Damsel during the Early Access process so we are super excited to finally be releasing it.”
Check out the gameplay and art-style below, Damsel will launch on October 19th.
