Another classic Apogee platformer has recently been given the HD makeover.
Apogee Entertainment, a classic shareware publisher, has published a surprise HD remake of Secret Agent, a 1992 action platformer.

In hand-drawn horror Kingdom of the Dead, you’ll be able to shoot Death.
Kingdom of the Dead is a planned “old school FPS” in which you must defeat Death—and his armies—in a black and white, pen-and-ink version of 1867 America.

The Witcher: Monster Slayer is similar to Pokémon Go, but you could come upon a beheaded horse in the park.
The Witcher: Monster Slayer screenshots are hilarious. It’s a mobile augmented reality game similar to Pokémon Go in which you seek for creatures while observing the world through your phone’s camera, but it’s based on The Witcher, so instead of a big-eyed Bulbasaur, you may stumble into a gnarly-ass griffin on your roof or a […]
