Description

Dex Deep is a hand-crafted Game Boy style vertical precision platformer, designed mobile-first. Dex must escape the pit, collect some serious treasure and take down the Calamities of the Deep across five themed worlds packed with traps, power-ups and screen-filling bosses.

Inspired by classic platformers including Super Mario Land and Ghouls 'n Ghosts, and early mobile games such as Sketchbook Squad, Dex Deep is a tough but fair precision platformer.

A mobile game that offers a genuine challenge with an old-school feel: no in-app purchases, no ads and no randomly generated levels. It's quick to pick up, has new mechanics waiting at every turn and doesn't ask you to keep playing forever.

Dex Deep has been a long time in the making: the first ever screenshot was shared on Twitter in over a decade ago!
