Death Kid: The Rogue Arena Brawler That Redefines Meta Progression (Gameplay)

This is a gameplay video of "Death Kid". Death Kid is a fast-paced arcade-inspired arena brawler with meta-progression. Wipe out hordes of daunting foes, master powerful abilities and grow stronger with each attempt. Venture deep inside a treacherous well to put the wheel of life and death back in motion and break the curse of immortality.

A restless descent into a treacherous underworld, Death Kid tears open the heart of the arcade brawler genre, fusing pixel-perfect action with rogue-lite meta-progression that rewards both mastery and perseverance. Within its shadowed, neon-tinged arenas, the stylized Death Kid—a figure suspended between life and oblivion—battles through relentless waves, rescuing wayward souls with every vicious combo and strategic dash. Enemy corpses become weapons, abilities evolve as hardship mounts, and every attempt etches out a more formidable protagonist in the Book of Death. Crooked Games crafts each arena floor with painterly flair; each encounter is a dance of dodges, well-timed counters, and creative improvisation. Even immortality feels fragile when the wheel of fate spins, demanding both grit and quicksilver reflexes in this haunting celebration of arcade intensity blended with rogue-like depth.
