Whip your way through hordes of supernatural monsters and bosses! For fans of classic-vanias and linear 2D side-scrollers with a goal of mastering each stage and destroying its boss! Discover hidden items, secondary weapons and even vehicles!
In stereotypical fashion, Super Indiemania is a game inspired by the 16-bit era of gaming (it's possible...that this has already been done before...) It is a 2D action side-scroller and mainly a linear experience. Keep moving forward to each new stage while fighting supernatural enemies/bosses, avoiding hazards, discovering items, and utilizing vehicles! The goal of the game is to progress to the last stage and defeat the final boss.
The Demo version contains Stage 3.
Early Access Features:
7 playable stages, for a combined total of 40 areas of varying size
Example areas: a barren wasteland, mushroom jungle ruins, an underwater palace, evil forests, a castle...and more of course!
Your main weapon is a whip with a multi-directional ability: attack horizontally, vertically and diagonally
Discover a new sub weapon on each stage: Crystal Crosses, Mushroom Bombs, Throwing Leaves, etcetera
Each sub weapon has a secondary use, e.g. the Crystal Cross can turn into a shield to repel enemies, the Throwing Leaf can be thrown at multiple angles
Find hidden items, such as health, score, projectile ammunition and extra lives pickups in each area
50+ different enemies and 7 bosses to battle
In certain areas, utilize vehicles such as minecarts, a mushroom-ship with a laser cannon, a super strong penguin and others

Developed by one guy!
Story:
An Evil Nerd has created yet another 2D game...how surprising! To create his new world the Evil Nerd has stolen and corrupted the souls of many Indie Developers! Our hero is forced to play the game over and over until he is able to free the Indie Souls and defeat the Evil Nerd and his minions!
Do you have what it takes to put an end to the Evil Nerd (and his unoriginal ideas) and destroy Castle Indiemania once and for all (or maybe not...)?
