Cemetery Rangers is a game made in the 8-bit forge by only one person, directly inspired by challenging games like The Legend of Zelda and Wonder Boy, with a unique story waiting to be told. 

This is the Demo Version, with a small taste of what lies beyond. Don't let the linearity of this demo deceive you, the full version will be much more longer and hardcore.

Let me know if you enjoyed the gameplay, leave a comment, or send me an e-mail.

Thanks for your help! Im working to make the camera more natural. As soon as possible the camera will be fixed. Thanks for playing!

Stand alone build for Linux would rock! But if not possible, at least for Windows.
And key rebinding. 8) I always rebind keys with a Linux script if the game doesn't
have it built in but I can't do that with a web game. Game looks fun though!

Thanks a lot for your help! The full game will be release for windows, it must have a linux version too. My friend thanks a lot for your comment! I hope you like the full version!

Interesting game, very fun and HARD no doubt about it, it is not impossible to beat by any means (Even if I failed to finish it in my limited time with it) which is good because games with obnoxious difficulty are not fun.

The game physics are solid, it takes a little bit to get accustomed but definitely work, jumping, attacking, using the trampoline and the rope feels very NES like and intuitive, although the knife guy has a hard time landing a attack, maybe give him a sword or spear haha.

the looks or this game are nice, pixelated but not over-simplified, the boss looks specially cool; aside from that I would love to see more upgrades to the weapons, I am guessing they work similar to how we have Holy Water [I] [II] [III] in Castlevania games, that appears to be appropriate for this kind of game.

I understand the lack of music because this is a demo version but I am sure this game would benefit from a hype song to start the adventure. And also consider making the try again screen skippable so the player can die faster.

Keep the good work!

Thanks a lot for your help! I'm working to fix the bugs and the unfair parts... The full game will have more exploration, the demo version doesn't have the multiple paths and all the upgrades. I'm trying to understand why the sound didn't work on your gameplay...  The try again screen will be fixed, you're absolutely right! Thanks a lot for playing!

After reading your comment I went back and checked, I usually play the games on the Itchio desktop app, tried it on regular web browser and the music does work, and it's amazing, exactly what I expected it to sound, sorry should have checked that before.

Thanks my friend! The full version of the game will be release for windows and linux, I hope the game works fine. Thanks for your support, you are a very generous person!

That looks pretty good so far, I would keep an eye on it for when it comes fully.


Althought I really don't like this camera. You need to be way too near the edge of the screen for it to follow you, so I got a lot of cheap deaths from stuff I couldn't see coming, so if you're still working on the game I suggest you to give it another look.
I'm also hoping this demo is taken from the middle of the game instead of the beggining, because this is pretty punitive for a first level. (remenber, "challenging" doesn't need to be equal "unfair". Althought if you change the camera I think it will already make things way more fair)

Thanks for your help! You're absolutely right, I'm working on the camera, that could work in 4:3, but definitely doesn't work in 16:9...Thanks a lot for your comment!
