Made for gamers who’d love a platformer with a strong storyline, where you can talk with characters, solve side quests, find and buy items, change weapons and wearables, with great hand-drawn-looking backgrounds… All of that presented in a very comical way!
In a village far, far away, a dull peasant named Rufus was living an ordinary life. The boss of the house was his wife, Brunilde, a boisterously smart and funny woman that you wouldn’t exactly call “pretty”. Life was nice and happy in the village, until one day, awakened by some magical mistake, the Evil One started to spread his minions around town, performing hideous acts against the people. The worst of which was the kidnapping of Brunilde. She was torn from Rufus’ hands and put in a prison at the Evil One’s castle. Transformed into a blondie duck-faced doll girl, she now spends all her time staring at herself in a small handheld mirror.
Determined to win her back, Rufus made a helmet out of a bucket and picked a broom as a weapon. Everybody now calls him the CLUNKY HERO, but he might be the only hope to defeat the evil one that no one wants to call by name. Rufus is now on his journey to save his wife and the whole village!
Chaosmonger Studio has launched a Clunky Hero kickstarter campaign, looking to raise $13,675.
Besides the game itself and tons of bonus digital features like wallpapers, concept art, and the soundtrack, there are lots of other cool physical perks available, including an awesome poster, a CLUNKY HERO t-shirt and even a retro style physical copy of CLUNKY HERO in a big box!
These are all great, but the most attractive rewards are the ones that will place the backers into the game itself! By helping us to fund the game, we’re offering you a chance at naming an item or a character, or having a portrait on a painting hung on a wall in one of the levels! There’s also the many combos and packs that allow you to collect various rewards at a fair price.
Interested fans can test the quality of Clunky Hero by playing its free demo. With about 1 hour gameplay and the huge amount of details, it's rather a small-game than a demo!
Besides the initial broom, there are a minimum of 6 different weapons that Rufus can use during his journey. Some are secret loot to be found in the remote corners of the many levels that he must explore during the adventure, some others are sold at high prices in various shops throughout the land and some he must win by defeating a boss. We don’t want to spoil all of the surprises, but here’s a few to check out…
The Evil One’s minions cover a wide range of clumsy foes. From the Vegan Zombie and the Monthly Ghost, to the One-Legged Frog and the Sober Man, they provide a great challenge to Rufus despite their clumsiness. To save his beloved Brunilde, the CLUNKY HERO must defeat over 30 different kinds of them.
