Artwork by needyourdisease.com Well it's been a while but I've been chipping away at Vintage Hero in the last few months. I'm happy to say the game is done! I still have to go into peer review and I'll announce a release date after it gets approved but for all other considerations, Vintage Hero has gone gold. To the left is the game box art and below you'll see some game videos and the back of the box I'll be sending out in the press release. Here's a description of the game story:
When Earth comes under attack by alien invaders, the peaceful denizens expect their old hero, Giga Man to once again save them. When it's clear he's too wrapped up in the tempting night life of the robot glitterati, it's time for a new hero to arrive. Help Floyd, an unassuming custodian at the county jail, his mentor Mac and his life long friend Kricket defeat the evil General and his invading alien army!
As you can see in the video below, the game is done in a retro pixel-art style and is obviously heavily influenced by Mega Man, but with my own added twists and level design that hopefully come together to make a fun game. If your a Mega Man fan, a fan of platformers or retro action/adventure games I think you'll find a lot to like here. Here's the trailer and game intro:
