Songs For A Hero (translated from its Portuguese title, "A Lenda Do Herói") is a Brazilian sidescrolling platformer by Dumativa Game Studio, an Affectionate Parody of 8-16 bits platform games based on the eponymous Web Animation shorts made by the YouTube channel Castro Brothers. It's a classic fantasy story with a twist: the knight who's questing to save a princess narrates everything he does in song, including the player's specific actions: from finding secret paths to staying for too long at the same spot, everything is commented in song form.The game's English localization was released in May 2020; the original Portuguese version was released in March 2016.In 2022, a sequel called Songs for a Hero 2: March of Malachi (A Lenda do Herói: A Marcha de Malaquias) was announced, featuring the Internet humourist and musician Lucas Inutilismo. The story is set to happen many years after the events of the first game and will have different protagonists, although the musical narration and mechanics will continue.

Advancing Boss of Doom: The Giant Scorpian boss battle. It involves the boss chasing the Hero through a linear path, full of traps and enemies the player must avoid. If the Hero is too slow, the boss causes damage.

Snakes Are Sinister: The only enemies in the opening levels are various types of snakes and their boss, the fire-spitting Queen Cobra. Dart traps are also decorated with stone serpents, implying the snakes built them somehow.

 Songs for a Hero (Video Game) / int_54d5074
comment
Speaking Simlish: Minor characters 'speak' in indecipherable bubble-sounds that are subtitled. The hero lampshades that he can't hear the words, but understands their meaning anyway. He himself is obligated to speak in this way after being stricken by a red lightining in the eighth level.

 Songs for a Hero (Video Game) / int_6dcbe9aa
comment
Deconstructive Parody: Many video game cliches are portrayed with the character remarking on their existence and absurdity, but eventually, a ridiculous reason is given for them near the end: aliens using powerful alien technology were using Earth as a laboratory and creating these battle snakes, floating platforms, causing people to speak in bubble-sounds, and doing other things.

comment
Underground Monkey: The basic green snakes from the first level have many variations, abilities and colors across the game: fire-breathing red ones, more resilient armor-wearing yellow ones, flying serpents with a darker tone of green, ice-breathing blue ones and Aztec-esque purple ones in the epilogue, not to mention the larger barrel-spitting ones and their leaders, the Queen and King Cobra. The variations are implied in the fifth level to be the green snakes modified by mysterious red lightings later revealed to be caused by the aliens.

Forest of Perpetual Autumn
 Songs for a Hero (Video Game) / int_a836c7fb
comment
Forest of Perpetual Autumn: The second act of the first level "Not so Greenish Hills" is set in a bush with autumn-based vegetation, with a color palette much more inclined to orange than the other acts. This is lampshaded by the Hero himself, who wonders in song form how could so much time have passed since he passed through the last phase, which was still green. He gets confused again in the third act "Venomous Fortress", where the foliage is green once more.
