About This Game

Little Jimmy's Nightmare is an action roguelite where cute hand-drawn visuals, brutal combat, flying guts and powerful item synergies go hand in hand.

Inspired by the colorful charm of the 16-bit era, explore handcrafted worlds, discover outrageous combinations and carve your way through cultists, monsters and unforgettable bosses. Every run tells a different story.

Little Jimmy's Nightmare looks like a classic adventure.

Until someone explodes.

Chainsaws, shotguns, rocket launchers, exploding enemies and far more blood than any cute hand-drawn world should reasonably contain. One minute you're exploring a peaceful forest. The next you're dodging vomit beams, escaping falling comets or trying not to become dinner for Chicken Man and his army of angry chickens.

Cute. Brutal. Mayhem.

The best builds are rarely planned.

Mix weapons, trinkets and active items to discover powerful synergies and completely new ways to play. Some combinations are obvious. Others are hidden until the right pieces finally come together.
