Overview

Battle Princess Madelyn was created in the style of Ghouls N' Ghosts and Wonder Boy 3: The Dragon's Trap (1989). The idea for the game was derived from a story Christopher Obritsch had previously written at the age of 9 after the loss of his first dog Champ and a conversation he had much later with his young daughter Madelyn while playing Ghouls N' Ghosts. The game features a self-adjusting difficulty ability that allows even the most novice players to enjoy the game. Adventure with Madelyn as she battles through multiple levels of creatures, castles, and multiple biomes.

The game features approximately 8 hours of gameplay through 10 levels. Each level includes 5 re-playable stages. Search for collectibles and other rewards including hidden stages. Cut scenes between levels help tell the ongoing story. Optionally, players can skip the scenes and play straight through, arcade style.
