By “Tempura,” I am of course referring to easily one of the best Xbox LIVE Indie games available today,Tempura of the Dead. Yep, 8bits Fanatics is back with another game for the independent channel, and this one is looking to be another quality throwback title.

It’s a platformer calledAban Hawkins & the 1000 Spikes, which will be due out sometime this month for one dollar. These dudes really like to go all out with their names, huh? Theofficial sitehas some screenshots to supplement the debut trailer above, so check it.

Aban Hawkins will allow us to “Return to the golden ages of video game.” I’d like that very much.
