WHAT'S ALL THIS ABOOT? Croak Crusader: Spawn of the Spore Spectre is a 2D action platformer with a real focus on speed, Tarantino-style violence, and a wicked grapple feature that lets ya zip around like an acrobat, eh! This is a prequel chapter for Croak Crusader: the Champion of Canada, and the full game’s gonna have, like, five times the content of this demo, buddy! So buckle up, ‘cause you’re in for a wild one, don’tcha know! BELLS AND WHISTLES, EH? Set in North Hollywood, Canada, the game’s a real nod to the golden-age of Hollywood Z-movie director Ed Wood and those early superhero flicks, eh! What really makes Croak Crusader stand out from the other grapple-based platformers, though, is the focus on combat and action, don’tcha know! Enemies burst into fountains of red pixels and body parts when you ram 'em through or chuck 'em against walls and floors with a good ol' 'crac' or 'paf!' It's a real hoot, buddy! A REAL BEAUT OF A STORY! In this prequel chapter, players take control of the mysterious doppelgänger, Toadman, on his quest for revenge against Captain Croak—the hero of the story, eh! Now, Toadman comes to life when a poor unsuspecting leech, stuck on Captain Croak, gets run over by a car and then mutated by the bizarre wildlife in Canada’s lush, exotic jungles. At this point in our story, those jungles have been infused with some strange alien tech, cooked up by the wicked Professor Creature! With a chip on his shoulder, Toadman vows to get even with Captain Croak and kick him out of the Canadian jungle he now calls home! MISC INFORMATION Croak Crusader: Spawn of the Spore Spectre is a demo chapter for what is intended to be a much larger experience! The full game, Croak Crusader: The Champion of Canada  will star the true hero of our story: 


Notes: Defeating enemies in Croak Crusader produces gore particles and severed body parts, which can be adjusted via in-game menus.
