Akira Hero leaps onto mobile

Head-jumping platform fun for your phone

Product: Akira Hero | Developer: OrangePixel | Publisher: OrangePixel | Genre: Action, Hardcore, Platform
You can't beat a good Super Mario platform game that involves jumping on cartoon enemies' heads. And Akira Hero is a new game that provides exactly that.

Based on OrangePixel's existing Dynamo Kid games, it's a bouncy platformer with nine levels and more than 30 bonus rooms to explore, plus a skirmish game mode that generates random levels whenever you play.

As the name implies, the visuals are distinctly Manga-influenced, while there's a Princess Peach to save along the way. The game also works with OrangePixel's online rumbleX high score tables, so you can see how you rate against other players.

Akira Hero is out this month, including a free version on the advertising-supported GameJump portal. OrangePixel says it's the first in a new line of hardcore games, to add to its existing one-thumb and casual mobile games.
