ULTIMATE LOCAL MULTIPLAYER RETROGAMING ARCADE

Manic Archers is a game that I personally would have liked to play back then, but it was not possible in the 16bit era because of technical limitations. A game that overflows with gems inspired by the arcade 2D high-times - 1000s of sprites and interlocking effects cumulating into a sensory overload of 16bit hype - while keeping that absolute, direct and perfectly controllable arcade grip. It took 2 years to perfect this game as a solo-developer.

GAMEPLAY FIRST

MANIC ARCHERS is an atmospheric and extremely addictive local and online multiplayer arcade game in pixelart-style.
It features simplistic and on-the-point gameplay with amazing game mechanics and lovely pixelart-details.
It is playable with up to 4 players simultaneously on one single screen in several well known multiplayer variants.

THE MOST SIMPLE GAME OF ALL TIME

One screen and 3 buttons is all you need to know - jump, shoot and dash/block. The depth of good gameplay is found in simplicity accompanied by great mechanics.

THINK ZELDA AND DEATHMATCH

With the intention to make a multiplayer match top-down game, MANIC ARCHERS owes to and actually should remind of the heritage of all top-down games like the Zelda and Final Fantasy series. Imagine the same love for details put into a competitive multiplayer arcade game for 4 players simultaneously.

APPROVED MULTIPLAYER FUN

In versus-mode players each control an archer, shooting the opposing archers until only one archer is left - besides Free-For-All versus, Manic Archers is featuring several other well known multiplayer modes.
During the game a lot of combinable and game changing powerups and special arrows appear on the playing field, enabling players to turn the game around in an instant.

AI TO KEEP YOU GAMING

In case you need one more player to start a 2on2 teamplay match or if you are alone and want to train, Manic Archers got AI opponents to fill up the slots.

RETRO CAUSE WE DO NOT NEED 3D FOR THAT

The game takes place on a single screen with classic arcade wrap-around scrolling. The players make use of the top-down environment strategically such as water, higher grounds, obstacles and interactive map parts such as switches, explosives, burnable trees and more.
