Trailer OST: Kashdan Music
An ode to nostalgic 16-bit gaming that is inspired by classics such as Ninja Gaiden, Shinobi, and Castlevania. DEMON CRUSH is a fast paced, side scrolling combat platformer set in a fantasy world based on the history and martial arts of ancient Japan. Battle warriors, demons, and beasts as you avenge the fallen and defend your home against the deceitful warlord Nezumo and his demonic master, Mathonas.
In Demon Crush, you become Kenzo Yagimoto as he defends his home from an otherworldly evil returning from the ancient past. Master the weapon arts of the Yagimoto clan to save your beloved Gochima village from the burning blades of the warlord Nezumo and the dark secrets concealed in his hidden fortress! Only then can you confront his long-forgotten demon master, and save your world from being consumed by the endless hunger of demon hordes.
Demon Crush is a fast-paced 2D sidescrolling combat-platformer that blends expressive, combo-based fighting mechanics with the charming visuals and intuitive controls of a bygone era. Play as multiple characters, master different weapons and combat styles, and plunge into adrenaline-soaked action in a fantasy Japanese setting. Wall jumps, air combos, grappling hook traversal, super moves, chaotic battles, death-defying leaps, and razor-sharp duels to the death against inhuman, villainous bosses all await you!

@@maxhd2548 sad part is devs abandoned the game
Spiritfall dude.
That's a common thing lol. Unless you were being sarcastic
Man this would be a house hold name today if it came out in the 90s! Wishing you all the success in the world. Heck yeah!
Co Sign! We'd still be talking about this one right now
for a moment i was fooled thinking that capcom finally was releasing a old classic called Demon's Crest, but this game looks amazing can't wait to play :D
As someone who played Ninja Gaiden as a kid, this looks like it'll be super fun! ☺️
This looks really tight. It reminds me of Ninja Gaiden and Castlevania on the NES. I'm definitely getting this game on Steam.
Looks great.
Wishlisted!
It looks amazing!
Thank you!
This game looks absolutely amazing, nice art style but most importantly the gameplay seems awesome. Very well done Game Designers.
Promising. Makes me want to replay Shinobi non Grata and Okinawa Rush
Shinobi Non Grata is a Banger! 💯💯🎉🎉
This truly is the Doom Eternal of Ninja Gaiden.
Thanks, that's some high praise!
Old school 2d hack & slash platformer with a lovely art style. Right up my alley.
Can wait for this game. My uncle introduce me to a game call ninja spirit and truth be told. I getting a huge vibe from this game.
Ninja Spirit had CRAZY action back in the day! Demon Crush plays a little closer-up, but the feeling of being in constant motion is still there. Thanks!
Like it! Remember me the 16-bit age!
Looks good ! Def gonna give it a try once it's released!
This looks so good, can't wait for the full release!!
We're looking forward to that, too. But one day at a time - gotta Kickstart it first!
This game looks amazing, like a new 2d ninja gaiden. I hope it’s released in switch.
Both of those things are exactly what we're going for!
Now that’s exactly my type of game
I'm looking forward to playing 🤩👏👏👏👏
Looks amazing! Can't wait to play it!
Woohoo let's gooo!!! 🎉
Cannot wait! This looks fun!
I immediately thought of roof rage when I saw this, really cool!
The game looks soo good!
Damn, I hope this plays as good as it looks, cause this could easily be my new Flynn: Son of Crimson.
Thanks, Flynn is a great game! Our Kickstarter this summer www.kickstarter.com/projects/demon-crush/demon-crush will include a playable demo level, so you can try it out!
In the meantime, we give away Steam keys to try the WIP demo out early (wishlist: store.steampowered.com/app/2753400/Demon_Crush/ ) on Twitter at x.com/DemonCrushGame . They look like DC-LRB4E-0FXTM-EFHNI , so grab one if you see it and remove the "DC-" part.
This looks SICK!!!
Definitely copping this one
Im a simple man. I see anything even remotely resembling a grappling hook and my monkey brain takes out my wallet.
Kind of reminds me of Muramasa, but with deeper mechanics. Looks good.
Is that the 2nd playable ninja right there? Ohhhh I'm really looking forward right now
23K views and you are the first to notice! Ninja games suit you!
Mmm a very kinetic castlevania + ninja gaiden?? Yes please 🤌🤌💚💚
Ever since dead cells. Games like these have blown up
Yeah, let's hope! We love this kind of game, which is why we're making this one, and we hope lots of other people get to have fun with it too.
Parece ser muito bom. Se o combate for justo e balanceado eu vou comprar com certeza. ❤
This and Shadow of the Ninja Reborn are gonna scratch an itch for me. Also reminds me of Within the Blade. Day 1 cop for the steam deck forsure 👍🏾
Within the Blade was cool! Different style from us, but really fun. We'll have to check out Shadow of the Ninja Reborn, too.
this looks so good
Demon crush looks like a great game I hope it comes out for the Nintendo Switch that has sequels, a version of the game that I would like to see styled like this, klonoa, bloodstained cursed of The moon 2 and mina the hollower a style version of each and the other everything possible mixed of these versions in a game is conquest Crystal palace there and saiyuki west journey could even be a beat em up version and rpg amd tactics like onimusha with several selectable and playable characters and this new demon crush game too, waiting for a version of it on the nintendo switch, great video, Brazil.
Demon crush parece um ótimo jogo espero que saia para nintendo switch que tenha continuações, uma versão de jogo que gostaria de ver estilo esse, klonoa, bloodstained cursed of The moon 2 e mina the hollower uma versão estilo de cada e outra todo o possível misturado dessas versões em um jogo é conquest Crystal palace e saiyuki journey west poderia ter uma versão até em beat em up rpg tradicional e tactics como onimusha com vários personagens selecionáveis e jogáveis e esse novo jogo demon crush também, esperando por uma versão dele no nintendo switch, ótimo vídeo, Brasil.
Thanks! Both Curse of the Moon games were really fun! And yes, we do plan on taking this to Switch! It's far too early to talk about sequels (or prequels?), but we are planning to put this on Switch.
Amazing work
wishlisted
very cool art and style
😃❤
I can feel that ninja gaiden vibe
Yes! We like to think of it as "what if there were some games that bridged the gap between NG3 on NES and NGB on XBox?"
@@revertingcastlesuna pregunta desarrolladores llegara a mobiles tambien ala play store y app store seris genial una version mobil
Wtf this looks insane
Yes, please ❤
wow this looks awesome
What the heck, this game looks so cool!
such a good trailer!! 😮
I hope this gets a Switch release, preferably with a physical copy. 😉
We're definitely planning on Switch! Physical copies might be available if there's demand...but let's hope!
Esta buenisimooo✨️✨️✨️
Wishlisted instantly
Finally a side scrolling hack and/game where I'm not a furry.
finally we have a good game besides all the rouge likes/lites we've had this year :)
Yeah, there are a ton of roguelikes and metroidvanias, and no slight to them, but we wanted to see more hand-crafted, action-heavy experiences. So here we go!
This looks bad ass.
I feel like every game coming out in the past couple years has a “Git gud” sign attached to them lol
Demon Crush attempts to use challenge and fun as motivation. We want you to try, and have fun finding your own fighting style, but we're not out to frustrate you into ragequitting.
For example, we're very careful to make all our combos work with simple input and not be too hard to string together. What makes it interesting, fun, and creative are the tactical choices you make, which combos you use and in what situations, not whether or not you've mastered a bunch of long, frame-perfect input sequences.
@@revertingcastles hmmm ok. I think I can get behind that. Thanks for the response
looking great
Super house of Dead ninja be like:
Looks cool ( Im making a platformer if anyone cares to look.)
wait excuse me, *Unreal Engine 5???*
When will the switch version be released & will you be doing a standard physical cartridge
Good question! The current plan is for the Switch version to come out as close to the Steam release. A physical release is something we want to do, but we'll have to see how the numbers look when we get closer.
nice
Pls Release This Game For Android Pls Guys
This Game Looking Very Cool And Fun
Pls Release This Game For Android Pls 😢😢😢
Es la fusion de ninja gaiden original y el ninja gaiden black 😅
This game looks legit here, and super fun to play. When's it gonna come?
Links in bio and description, but we're giving away Steam keys to the demo now, and the Kickstarter this summer will include the demo, open to the public. The final game's schedule will be dependent on how the Kickstarter goes.
the combat looks awesome, but I hope theres an option to turn off the combat grunts cus they are gonna get real old real fast.
They play randomly in the game, not every time you do a move. We turned up the randomness for the trailer recording sessions to call attention to the moves. We also have several variations of each combat grunt/shout. Hopefully we'll strike the right balance!
givin me dead cells vibe.
Depois de adulto a gente percebe o quanto os jogos deixam a gente ansioso.
I betcha he's got a crush on the demon
We were surprised when we searched for the game's name to see if it was already in use to see how many demon-themed dating sims are out there! Didn't know that was a thing!
I think the sound design need some improvements
Katana Zero and Dead Cells nailed the weapon hit sfx
We're constantly polishing, and audio is definitely included in that. Thanks for your feedback!
@@revertingcastles yes, in my opinion
The sound should feel louder without actually increasing the volume
Release date😊
Our Kickstarter campaign is coming this summer, with a playable demo.
Why this remember Okinawa Rush?
We took inspiration from Okinawan and Japanese martial arts, history and mythology, and our guess is they did too! It's a pretty cool concept, after all.
Any plans on PlayStation console release?
We are considering that, based on demand and customer feedback. We'd love to have it on Nintendo, Sony, and Microsoft consoles.
@@revertingcastles Glad to hear, looking forward to this, best of luck to your team!
This was made with unreal engine 5? wow.
Sure was! Paper2D can unlock a lot of capabilities in what is normally seen as big AAA engine, and the rest of the engine has some good features, tools, and pipelines that really help.
@@revertingcastles This changes a lot, i thought unreal wasn't good at 2d.
@@chigstardan7285 It's not designed for it, but it is capable of doing it and has an Epic plugin (included for free in the base engine) for it, as well as some enhanced plugins made by users. This game uses the built-in plugin with only a few very minor modifications and extensions.
Shovel knight art style
when they say Ninja Gaiden do they mean black or the nsn games.
Both! We imagined what a game would feel like if there were games that bridged the gap between NES and XBox Ninja Gaiden. So we have sidescrolling platforming, but also beat-em-up combat with lifters, juggles, throws, super moves, and multiple weapons.
is it coop?!
Sorry, it's not a coop game at present. Maybe a local coop challenge/arena mode could be a stretch goal, though!
What is this going to be on?
PC on Steam, probably also EGS and GoG. We're planning on getting it ported to Nintendo Switch, too. PlayStation and XBox will be done if customer demand is there for it. We'd love to get to all of the platforms so people can have fun with our game. Thanks for asking! If you'd like to try the demo, follow our Kickstarter and our Twitter account - we're handing out keys there and the Kickstarter campaign this summer will include a playable Steam demo.
@@revertingcastles oh good what is eGs and gog I hope I gets done and on to Xbox someday 😀😃
@@revertingcastlesbtw when is it coming
@@cannongod6523 We hope we can hit all the major console platforms, too! EGS and GoG are Epic Games Store and Good Old Games, both are PC game services like Steam.
@@cannongod6523 Kickstarter campaign this summer! The campaign page will have a Steam demo download, and we're handing out keys on Twitter. See the description for links!
The trailer is great, but the parallax movement at 0:13 is wrong: if it's a tilt, then it doesn't need parallax because the camera i pivoting. If it moves up, then it should show more of the city, not less. So you either remove it or reverse it.
What if it's meant to be rising while looking up? Of course, since it's all 2D sprites, there's an element of "faking it" that's inherent to that kind of camera movement.
Looks fine to me :P
Fun fact: there's an snes pinball game with the same name. Or simmilar, at least.
Yeah, Devil's Crush! We found that when we first named Demon Crush so we could make sure the name we wanted wasn't taken.
looks cool, but... pink???
Pink and electric blue is a classic! A little nod to the 1980s games that started the genre.
Nooo way the Messenger 2
This has nothing to do with pinball!
Plus it's not even a supernatural-themed dating simulator! What's going on here?
Yeah no I give it two weeks and watch noone cover the game like they did with the messenger:oh it's a good game,yeah then why was noone singing it's praises.
The combat grunts with that voice is gonna get annoying quickly 😒
Pixel mess
Make the fucking sprite bigger, how are you supposed to see that sht on the switch
This looks horrible, this is why we need serious criticism in everything, so not just anybody without talent gets to release things this bad.
those pixels dead cells sht looks so ugly
