About Dead Cells:

Dead Cells is a rogue-lite, metroidvania-inspired, action-platformer. You’ll explore a sprawling, ever-changing castle… assuming you’re able to fight your way past its keepers in 2D souls-lite combat. No checkpoints. Kill, die, learn, repeat.

Our ambition is to create the kind of financial stability and healthy work life balance that allows people to project themselves into a decades long career in games, at Evil Empire.”
