Some of you might remember that I (Robin Ek, TGG) wrote about Paulo Andrés F2P game “MarloW in Apocalyptic Acid World” (it´s like a twisted version of Super Mario) not so long ago? Well, guess what? Paulo reached out to me the other day and informed us that he has released a brand-new F2P indie game called “Virgil’s Purgatory“:

“Hi, Robin and TGG Staff.

just to tell you that I released a new game: Virgil’s Purgatory. This time it is a metroidvania game made in the Super Game Boy Style. Thanks!” – Paulo Andrés

“Virgil’s Purgatory” is out now for Windows (you can download and play the game for free).

So if you´re into retro-like Metroidvania games, then you probably don´t want to miss out on “Virgil’s Purgatory” =) (the game is 100% free-to-play, and you can download the game now for Windows).

About Virgil’s Purgatory:
Virgil is a man who was decapitated, now he must wander through his own purgatory in search of his true head and perhaps eternal rest. What started as an entry into GBJam5-2016 turned out to be something bigger. Now called Virgil’s Purgatory, the game has been rebalanced, bug fixed, contains 2 new areas, 2 new bosses, 3 new songs, new enemies, new texts, new and complete end for the game, among other details. The game now has 30 to 60 minutes of total game play.

Now in 3 versions:
Super GB English (colorful with SGB border)
Super GB PT-BR (portuguese translated)
GB Monochrome Version (Classic GB green tones)

Features:
– 5 bosses (one optional)
– 6 areas (one optional)
– Upgrades powerups
– 6 Chiptunes
– Pixel Art in 4 colors
– Super GB Border
– GB 160X144 Resolution
– CRT filters (scanlines)
