Press release:
BEESWAX Games and DreadXP are today very happy and excited to announce that their The spooky horror microgame “SPOOKWARE” is now available for PC via Steam.

Before you know it, you’ll be well on your way to solving a murder mystery on a cruise ship, filing your taxes (the horror!) … or starting a high school band just to skip out of class.

Are you ready to experience the first episode of this cheerful collection of the quirkiest, spookiest microgames this side of the afterlife?

SPOOK-TACULAR
We’ve all heard about living life to its fullest … but what about death?! Join the three skelebros – Lefti, Midi, and Righti – on a grand road trip playing hundreds of handcrafted, fast-paced, horror-inspired microgames along the way.

Each episode of SPOOKWARE includes three chapters with their own areas, microgames, mechanics, and stories. Challenge yourself with a wide collection of blazing fast microgames built around horror tropes – more than 60 in the first episode! Each one takes only a few seconds – so use your wits to survive the onslaught of wildly different, blood-curdling experiences.

However, this isn’t JUST a bunch of microgames mushed together. Blending arcade-style microgame medleys with classic adventure games, each microgame is carefully interwoven within the story. And every area features completely new gameplay mechanics to test your microgame skills – going as far as changing up control schemes!

KEY FEATURES

60+ handcrafted, blood-pumping, horror-inspired microgames in the first episode, with over 200 to come!
3.5 chapters (we count the intro as a half) with their own story and adventure – with many more to come…
Play as 3 adorable skeleton brothers Lefti, Midi, and Righti.
Unique gameplay mechanics for every area, from rhythm to puzzle games.
Remix all your unlocked microgames for the ultimate challenge.
At least 7 skeleton puns!
