<p><em><span style="font-weight: 400">Super Axe Boy</span></em><span style="font-weight: 400">, a low-poly platformer that is “a love letter to platform games,&#8221; will arrive on Kickstarter on 20th October 2015, developer Matthias Falk has announced.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">The game’s Kickstarter trailer boasts some simple, yet beautifully artistic visuals to go along with its gameplay that shows off </span><em><span style="font-weight: 400">Super Axe Boy</span></em><span style="font-weight: 400">’s 2D movements within a 3D world. It aims to create a concoction of classic 2D gameplay from the era of 8-bit video games and modern, fully 3D graphics seen in recent years.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">“Set in a colourful low-poly world, </span><em><span style="font-weight: 400">Super Axe Boy</span></em><span style="font-weight: 400"> is about the titular lumberjack Axe Boy and his friend Bebob who need to save the world from an alien invasion that is led by a sneaky alien beaver race. While on this unlikely quest, players need to double jump and dash through challenging 2D/3D stages and wield their axe to defeat enemies and create new path ways by falling trees and using them in creative ways to overcome gaps.”</span></p>
