Viva Mortis

Viva Mortis is a fast paced isometric retro-fest feast for the eyes and ears.

Written for the SyntaxBomb Retro-Game fightout It is based on a Sinclair Spectrum with the option to use ZX-Spectrum graphics from glorious color clash to 16 amazing Sinclair colours and sound (from a single beep (48k), simple 3 voice (128k) or fully sampled (next)). The choice is yours.

SyntaxBomb Competition

You play as Mortis: Overworked minion of Mr De'Ath.

There is a party planned and someone has nicked his 5 runes. Toddle off and find them  for him to really get the party started.

But wait.... it's not as simple as all that is it? Oh no, there's a time limit and a collection of clockwork fiends and demented dangers to prevent you from sipping Mojitos at the party!

Collect lost treasures, throw a few skulls and bash a few piñatas. And beware the Fabled Broom of Doom!

With a custom chip-synth and QasarBeach sound engine, you might just stay around for the sounds alone - why not stay forever?

Control is simple:

left/right/up/down and fire, all can be reconfigured to your own desires...

Fullscreen or windowed. You decide.

MacOS, Windows or Linux - it's up to you...

Mr De'Ath is watching...

Mr De'Ath is waiting...

Go gather your bones and work those fingers... To... The... Bone...
