Love pixels? Fond of platformers? Is there a special place in your heart for the 8-bit and 16-bit era? Want to have fun? Yes!? Well, you’ve come to the right place, my friend. Mutant Mudds Deluxe is a “12-bit” action platformer full of pixels and platforming fun! Our hero, Max, may be just a 2D sprite, but he can leap into the third dimension by jetting between the background and the foreground playfields with his trusty jetpack in this unique dimensionally-woven experience. Armed with a heavy-duty water cannon, Max has what he needs to vanquish his long-term nemesis: the Mutant Mudds. Max must blast and hover his way across the soiled landscape to seek out mysterious Water Sprites. Legend says collecting all of the mysterious Water Sprites will wash the filthy Mutant Mudds away for good! Key Features 80 hard-as-steel levels spanning across 5 pixelated worlds and 9 neo-retro art themes! Jet between three 2D playfields and enjoy lovely depth-of-field blur effects – an eyeball treat. Obtain power-ups from Grannie's Attic to gain access to secret level doorways! 20 ghoulish ghost levels where the rules are turned upside down + spectral power-up. Unlock Grannie and other playable characters to harness the tri-power of all power-ups! Steam leader boards show the best level completion times from around the world. Includes 20 lip-smacking delicious ‘Grannie’ levels, specifically designed for veteran players! Steam achievements earn you pride and bragging rights, while sharpening your skills. Dozens of foot-stomping and booty-groovin’ chip-tune music tracks to snap your fingers to!

Press reviews: “Just like the original, one of my favorite parts of the Mudds series are the little nuances that hearken back to the golden age of retro games — small graphical details that really show not only that the game was a labor of love, but that Renegade Kid actually played said retro games for inspiration. All of those details look even better in Deluxe, preserved in the new vibrant HD visuals — the same goes for the catchy chiptunes soundtrack (with all new music for the ghost levels), and deliciously retro sound effects.” 90% – Gamer Limit “I had great praise for this game before and so there is no doubt that I was going to hand it great praise once again. It is just as fun the second time around as it was the first time on the 3DS, with the original levels. The new levels and enhancements made it even more gratifying, and players don’t even have to wait long to experience the new ghost levels. As players beat an original level, the corresponding ghost level unlocks, giving them quick access to experience the spooky mudds.” 90% – Fanbolt “Mutant Mudds Deluxe is the ultimate version of an already great game. Some tweaks to how it plays in addition to a fair amount of new content place it far above the original game. If you own the original but some things about it bothered you, give Deluxe a go. If you’ve never played the game, buy Deluxe as soon as possible. Mutant Mudds Deluxe is an outstanding throwback to another age, and it can’t be missed.” 90% – Blazekick
