Pixelry, a delightful portmanteau of Pixelated & Chivalry, offers players a chance to see what it would be like to be a medieval Knight made out of pixels. We've all dreamed of it, and now it's a reality. Activities you'll take part in include training up your knighthood skills by hanging out in a pub drinking beer, managing your weapons and armour, and training up your trusty steed. But that's all building up to fighting, and in Pixelry the fighting is jousting.

As seen in the footage above, a well times stab with your lance will result in a very satisfying impalement. Not gentlemanly, but that's the way of the Knight.

Pixelry is available as a playable alpha preorder from either Indievania or Desura, and comes in both Windows and Linux flavours.
