Magenta Horizon is a fast-paced hack-and-slash 2D platformer game that is heavily inspired by Devil May Cry and Hollow Knight.

Play as Gretel, a reaper in this purgatory-like afterlife. After being exiled from her sanctuary for 200 years, she is freed from her sarcophagus by a wandering soul named Archibald. Seeking purpose in this afterlife she decides to guide Archibald back to the sanctuary she was long exiled from. The journey won't be easy however as the path is fraught with all manner of grotesque demons starving for souls.


  • Destroy the enemies with an arsenal of ranged skills that can be chained with each other. 

  • Juggle or pull the enemies to simultaneously attack and position yourself.

  • Throw healing bombs to turn them into living health potion containers. Hit them to regain health and keep fighting.

  • Slay the enemies swiftly and efficiently to gain style points.
