'Super Mighty Power Man' (ALL) Kickstarter Launched

Super Mighty Power Man is a true 8-bit retro action-platformer keeping with the best 80’s and 90’s NES games of the genre.

Super Mighty Power Man (SMPM) is greatly inspired by the famous Mega Man game series as well as others including: Castlevania, Contra, Duck Tales, Kirby, Super Mario Bros. and more recent ones like VVVVVV, Retro City Rampage and Shovel Knight. Besides being a true homage to all games of the NES legendary gaming era, it is above all else a tribute to the renowned Blue Bomber and a testament to our passion for the games that marked our childhood.

Play as Corey, a gutsy kid who accidentally finds himself caught in a most unexpected adventure to save the galaxy. Helped by a clumsy extraterrestrial robot named Robby, and armed with a mysterious device called ‘The Power Grasp’, Corey must defend the Earth from the spreading evil forces of General Mok. He will need to fight (and jump) his way through deadly environments, hordes of monsters, and other hazardous traps to free occupied planets from the tyranny of his enemy’s lieutenants.

‘The Power Grasp’ grants Corey superhuman powers, allowing him to merge with other lifeforms and become one of the many forms of Super Mighty Power Man!

Super Mighty Power Man players can switch between 8 different suits: human boy (default), ant, eel, falcon, cat, crab, ape, or the 8th suit which is still a secret. Each suit has its own weapon and special moves. For instance, the Falcon suit allows you to glide for some time and perform a high jump, while the Eel suit allows you to swim and freely move underwater.

Box Hedge Games has launched a Super Mighty Power Man kickstarter campaign, looking for €50,000.
