They Bleed Pixels is a beat 'em up platformer. The art style is dark with strong gothic Lovecraftian themes. The player controls a young girl who must fight her way through violent nightmares. Death is common and overcoming obstacles is mostly accomplished through trial and error. Respawn points are created when the player accumulates enough blood collected from slain enemies or in-level blood pickups, and idles a certain distance away from immediate level hazards.
