About Vampire Strider
In Vampire Strider the prince runs on his own, and your job is the sword. This gothic pixel-art auto-runner sends a vampire prince sprinting through an endless haunted castle while you slash at the monsters in his way and try to survive as long as you can.
The creator paired the mood of classic gothic action games with the quick readability and rhythm of an auto-runner, aiming for a pace that is fast and easy to pick up. They made it in Phaser with Claude Code, and it was 227th of 945 entries in Vibe Jam 2026.
A run is a single dash through dark, hostile surroundings: haunted forests, ruined castles, stained glass halls, and monster-filled corridors, all in pixel art.
