This short top-down game has a simple story, it's a knight's quest to get back his birthday cake stolen by the Ogre. We don't want to spoil but it worth playing until the end!

Pinata Venganza is, as its name suggest, the revenge of a Pinata against the kids! The story of this beat'em up is crazy and the main character, a pinata, is the cutest donkey ever.
A lot of efforts have been put in the visuals and we hope that gmao will contnue working on this project!

Save the cake!
A clown with a candle flamethrower protecting a birthday cake from balloons? While it may seem like some hallucination, this is exactly the game Baz, Mythril Age, and Jump Game Studio have prepared for you!
How long can you last in Birthday Cake Defense?


Thank you everyone!
