Deadlings - Rotten Edition, An Arcade Side-scroller With Strategy Elements

One we missed! An arcade side-scroller with strategy elements! Four different types of zombie minions with unique abilities! 70 levels of pure zombie gore fun! Additional game mode - Nightmare - only for the hardcore gamers!

About the game
Death is lonely. He has zero friends on his FaceTome account and no one to hang out with. So, in order to feel better he begins “Project Deadlings”. Death buys a factory where he can build his laboratory and begin training a massive army of zombie minions.

As the army of Deadlings grows, the mazes of the laboratory become deadlier, loaded with puzzles and death-defying traps. Different Deadlings have their own unique abilities: Bonesack is agile - he can run and jump, Creep can climb on walls and ceilings, Lazybrain treads slowly but carefully and Stencher... well Stencher has gastric problems so he can use his powerful gas clouds to fly.

You will have to combine all of these abilities to find your way in Death's Maze.

Can you help Death to kill his boredom? Will you be able to navigate all 60+ levels available in Deadlings? Will you complete Project Deadlings, and successfully train all of your zombie minions?

While not a big fan of side-scrolling platformer gamers, the visuals in this are quite decent! There aren't many reviews yet, but the current reviews paint a positive picture.

Looks like it. The developer's website has no mention of any other purchase options.

It's also available for a variety of mobile devices:

I happened to buy it on the release day and it's rather fun, though not entirely what I expected. And the restart procedure (which I've been going through a lot, as I started playing in nightmare mode right from the scratch) is far too long, which puts me off a bit.
