Deadbolt is a side-scrolling stealth-action video game developed by Hopoo Games, who also created Risk of Rain. The game was released as a demo on April 19, 2015, and officially on Steam for Microsoft Windows on March 14, 2016. Linux and Mac OS X versions were also made available a few months later.
The game centers on the Grim Reaper as he progresses through three sets of nine levels filled with hordes of undead that he must kill. There are three main types of undead throughout the game: Zombies, Vampires, and Skeletons, also known as Dredged. Each set of levels is based on an undead type: the first set of nine levels focuses on Zombies, the next set focuses on Vampires, and the last focuses on the Dredged. The game also has a map editor where levels can be shared on the Steam workshop.
