GP: "Over the past few years it seems like there has been a rebirth of the side-scrolling platformer. This style of gameplay is hugely popular with indie developers, but some have worked to make incredibly difficult ones. Games like VVVVVV, Mighty Jill Off, and Super Meat Boy have challenged players with tough levels, but they were still loads of fun to play. They Bleed Pixels is the newest entry into the genre of tough but fun platformers and might make some question if it is just a copycat. Is the game too derivative of other titles or does it manage to stand all on its own?"

Gaming Boulevard wrote a review of They Bleed Pixels, explaining it's one of the best indie games ever.
As an anonymous student of the Lafcadio Academy for Troubled Young Ladies, you must battle through your nightmares to defeat a curse that’s slowly transforming your body into a clawed demonic form. Originally released for PC in 2012, They Bleed Pixels balances a perfect mix of fast-paced acrobatic platforming and fierce, one-button, slash 'em up combat. By suppressing their urge to button mash in favor of focusing on stylish and smart kills, players are rewarded with a checkpoint they can choose when to place for safety... or try their luck by holding onto it for extra bonus points.
I still haven't bested Super Meat Boy, so if this is difficult like that, I dunno if I have the heart for it...
