Left 4 Dead NES remake released (it's free)

Tuesday 5-Jan-2010 7:55 PM Pixel Force: Left 4 Dead dubbed "a retro de-make"
6 Comments
Created by Eric Ruth Games, Pixel Force: Left 4 Dead is a great little NES-style "de-make" of Valve's Left 4 Dead. It's also been relesed on PC as a free download.

Eric Ruth (the sole developer behind the game) says, "Pixel Force: Left 4 Dead is a retro de-make of Valve's hit zombie killing masterpiece. Lovingly recreated in a fashion that would have been acceptable in 1986 for the Nintendo Entertainment System, this de-make stands as the flagship title of the upcoming Pixel Force series from Eric Ruth Games.

"Go alone, or invite a friend for 2 player co-op against the zombie apocalypse in all 4 of the original game campaigns. Two difficulties and all four of the survivors make a glorious 8-bit appearence, complete with first and second tier weapons scattered along your path to escape. So, grab your controller of choice and kick back with an award-winning retro take on the end of the world with Pixel Force: Left 4 Dead."

You can download Pixel Force: Left 4 Dead here. Not sure what Valve has to say about it so you might want to be quick.



Thanks Blues.

I know they say this is a Left 4 Dead remake. But is it really?

Doesn't really resemble L4D to me.

Anyone heard anything more about Grandtheftendo, the gta 3 de-make? That looked interesting...

Alien Syndrome meets Dawn of the dead....

Respect to the guys who put the effort into coding these remakes. What about MW2 on the C64 with Jeff Minter doing the tunes...

So this is the Australian version of L4D?

Always wondered how they had to change it...
