Nightmare Boy comes to Switch

The Vanir Project has announced that Nightmare Boy is coming to Switch and its coming next week, and players will get to enjoy a 90's inspired metroidvania experience. Nightmare Boy has already come to other platforms, last October, so now its time for Switch.

This new version for Nintendo's hybrid console will retain the essence and playability of the original Nightmare Boy and will include some of the upgrades introduced on version 1.0.2 of the game for Steam, PS4 and Xbox One: Digital pad controls, improved stability and a lot of minor bugs from the initial version fixed.

Join Billy, turned into the mysterious Rolok, and fight to wake up from your worst dream: a world of nightmare made up by your fears and the worst dreams from another ten kids, also trapped in that world.

Fight all kind of enemies, recover Billy’s original appearance and rescue the ten kids lost in their own nightmares; each one of them will give you new powers and will help you unveil different endings for the game. 

Nightmare Boy mixes pixel art and cartoon visuals, has complex metroidvania game mechanics, big environments full of secrets, enemies and final bosses. Also, it hides a dark story beneath the surface and the player will be the one unveiling it.
