This is quite possibly one of the oldest unplayed games in my Steam library. At some stage in early 2019 I opened it, but never played it.
Given the kind of game, I'm not surprised that past me took one look and went "no, thank you".
It's most of the things I dislike in a game. It's a retro/8-bit sideways-scrolling-zombie-shooter.
I'm not really a fan of sideways scrollers. Zombie games are a bit take-it-or-leave-it.
8-bit "retro" games, though? As I've said before, I was there the first time around, and I have few warm memories.
Shoot zombies, collect coins, buy upgrades, rinse & repeat. I got somewhere into the third level and just got sick of it.
For me, Dead Pixels was:
2: Meh.
