Vertical Drop Heroes HD – Out on Steam now!
Nerdook Productions & Digerati Distribution’s Vertical Drop Heroes HD is a procedural platformer RPG with rogue-like elements, where your hero adventures vertically through randomly generated stages (think – a down scrolling Rogue Legacy meets Castle Crashers…) Armed with a variety of skills and traits, you must use your cunning and reflexes to survive the dangers of each stage, until you face the final boss and uncover the truth behind the game!

Quote from Nerdook
“Vertical Drop Heroes HD is a labor of love by a one man development team (me)! It’s performed really well on GOG and we’ve averaged reviews of 8/10 which I’m really happy with….and now I can’t wait to see how it’s received by the community on Steam!”
