About this game
The purple night is a 2022 Game Boy Advance platformer game by LostImmortal, setsquare.
Save a lost soul and take them safely back to the afterlife! The purple night is a platformer game for the Game Boy Advance (also playable on emulators) where your health bar is your sword. The more damage you take, the shorter your sword gets, making you more nimble and your attacks faster, but also increasing your risk. Do you choose to stay at high health but low mobility, or low health and higher mobility?
