Story
The year is 2084. After a series of mergers, buyouts and hostile takeovers, only one videogame development company is left in the world: RegnantCorp. A huge enterprise ran by a sounder of greedy piggies. All the fun in video games has been replaced with intrusive addiction algorithms used to control people’s minds and behaviour.
But not all of the world’s inhabitants are under the control of the evil corporation…
A rebellion of game enthusiasts have warded off the hoofed-grip of RegnantCorp, by replacing their software with classic games. Titles from past times, which have long been forbidden and are now praised as relics. Following a distress signal captured through an antiquated game console, Tan Tan and his valiant llama steed Ola prepare to take on RegnantCorp and confront the pigs...
Gameplay
The finest quality ingredients can be found in this Metroidvania! A large interconnected world to explore and unlock, a responsive customizable action-set for combat and an in-game economy-based upgrading system. Unlock and enhance weapons and abilities for both our courageous heroes, Tan Tan the Raccoon and Ola the Llama. Up to three weapons can be equipped simultaneously to provide a range of unique directional attacks. More powerful abilities are executed by inputting a specific sequence of keys... Just like the old days!
Note: The SuperEpic trailer shows one of our parody minigames that can be played on your smartphone. We understand not everybody has phones! (Or may prefer not to bring a phone into their gaming session!) Skipping the minigames will not hinder your progress in SuperEpic.
