Sprite-based platformer Tiny Thor launches today, available for the Nintendo Switch console. The Independently-developed title sports eye-catching 16-bit pixel art by Henk Nieborg and incorporates an electronic music score by game composers Chris Hülsbeck and Fabian Del Priore.

Player character Thor wields Mjölnir, the mighty ricocheting hammer that never misses its target. The adolescent son of Odin learns special abilities, traversing thirty handcrafted levels across the mystical Norse realm of Asgard. Along the way, Thor will be challenged by epic boss encounters, each demarcated by unique mechanics.

Verified for use with the Steam Deck, Tiny Thor for Windows is currently available through Steam, GOG and the Epic Games Store, published by Gameforge. The digital soundtrack album by Hülsbeck and Del Priore can be purchased through Steam. Preorders have opened at Strictly Limited Games for the physical edition for Nintendo Switch, bundled with spiritual predecessor "Hammer Kid."


From the product page:
