A downloadable NES Homebrew

Well since I made a F13 game... what was next? Why not Michael Myers? Had a lot of free time in high school and got this done right in time for Halloween that year. Play as Michael & stalk Laurie Strode. 

This was originally made in Klik N Play, converted over to Click & Create, and then ported to play on an NES.

For more information on the original windows game, visit the official page here.

Alternate download link.

{Windows 98 version released: Oct 31, 1999. NES demake released: Sept 30, 2022.}


-=List of easter eggs and codes=-

  • On the credits screen.. Press the select button 31 times to jump to the Bonus Hospital Level instantly. 
  • After exiting the cave. Slash through the bushes on the left for a familiar cameo.
  • During the Bonus Hospital Level.. after killing Jimmy (fro guy from Halloween II), go back to the hot tub for another familiar cameo. 
  • After you kill the 2 cops by the dare poster. Go outside and press down + select for a secret surprise.

-=Tips=-

  • Grandma troubles? That tree looks like a nice hiding space.
  • More grandma troubles? Stay in the middle of the floor. Count the white dots on the bottom closest to the black line next to the box. Walk to the right as far as the fourth white dot goes, then turn around and go the other way. You'll reach your goal in time.
  • You can take those two cops out at the same time if you're positioned right.

-=Notes=-

If the slasher roms aren't running on your device, download THIS zip file of all 4 games. They're all different mapper versions of the roms.


-=Extras=-



Went to cameo and sent footage of my free horror games I made about these legends to them! This is what they had to say!
