1001 Spikes

Modern games teach gamers that nothing comes for free. I want some powerful weapon? You will have to shell out a couple of hundred from your pocket. And if the game seems damn generous at first glance, then this is a reason to be wary. For example, the platformer 1001 Spikes, which is worth downloading a torrent with for everyone who is not looking for easy ways, immediately gives the main character 1001 life. This is almost immortality! But there is a risk of spending all this "infinite" amount already on the first levels. After all, this game is not just difficult. Due to its mega-hardcore, it is almost impassable!

1001 Spikes is a platformer that goes out of its way to the old-school. There are retro graphics with two dimensions and eight bits, and multi-button control, and chiptune as a soundtrack.
However, later it turns out that everything is not so simple. First of all, it has multiplayer. Secondly, no old-school developer would have thought of making such a complex game!
The game features hundreds of levels teeming with traps, obstacles, and enemies. 1001 life are granted to complete this entire campaign. At the same time, the higher the serial number of the level, the more traps it has.
And, in addition, the game has a very interesting plot, which is told through video cutscenes.
