What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

Super is in early development, and is in true Alpha state. There is a lot of play-ability, and tons of bugs/missing features. It is my hope that this will grow with community input and support.

This is a massive project made with much love for games, and the gaming community. Your constructive feedback is appreciated. :)”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Until Super feels right, both with controls and game-play. The development of this game is fit in between working paying jobs to keep the bills paid, so it will be a bit slow going.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“More content, tighter controls, and fewer bugs. The city will be develop-able, the citizens will be influence-able, and there will be more locations and bosses. There are also plans to save your fallen characters in "Comic Book" form.

Planned Features:

  • Genre Spanning Mini-Games
  • Stacking Abilities to Further Character Variation
  • In-Depth Character Creator
  • City Development
  • Citizen Development
  • Immortalizing Past Heroes in Comic Book Form
  • Unlocking outfits
  • Outfit Customization
  • Finish Persistent Save-File System

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

Current Features (all Alpha of course):

  • Character Creation - Hero and Alias Names, Outfits, Abilities, and more!
  • Explorable City - A multi-map city with branching locations.
  • Stores - Sly's Sleuthing, Jim's Gym.
  • Unlockables - Origins, Aliases, and Abilities.
  • Enterable Buildings - Homes, Factories, Stores, Sewers, Windows, and more!
  • Vehicles - Car, Helicopter
  • Origins - Average, Vagabond, Military, Athlete, Mutant, Wealthy... and more to come.
  • Aliases - Vagrant, Cleaner, Delivery Worker, Construction Worker, Scientist, News Photographer, Emergency Worker, Police, Thug... and more to come.
  • Powers - Flight, Laser Beam, Mind Reading, Super-Speed, Super-Jumping, and more on the way.
  • Devices - Fire Extinguisher, Grapple-Hook, Pistol, Break-In Tools, Camera, and more on the way.
  • Skills - Heavy Lifting, Drivers License, Pilots License, Capture, Civil Engineering, First Aid, Fighting, Acrobatics (Ledge Jumping).
  • Alias and Super Costumes - One for each vocation, one for each Origin, and then some.
  • Day/Night Cycle with Events - Giant Robots, Alien Abductions, Alien Invasions, Fire Breakouts, Robbery's, and more on the way!
  • The beginnings of a Dual City Economy - All citizens have a need. Each need will shift the cities economy. Robbers need to steal from stores, which takes from the cities income... but adds to the Enclave underworld. Workers walk to work and produce stock, so citizens shopping at the stores can pay city taxes.
  • Bosses - Currently 2 are being tested.
  • Dual Reputation System - Both your Alias and Super have their own reputations. If the heat is too difficult for one, change in a booth. Reputation can be positive and negative for both the Police, and the Enclave.

There are a lot of mini-games planned. Many are partially in place. But, some mechanics need to be ironed out. Still, it's pretty fun just to travel around.

Some assets need to be tweaked as well.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“No, it will be free. There may be an Add-On pack for the community to buy, so that they may help further development.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“Thru Forums and Messaging. :)”

It's pixelized platform mayhem in Venture City!

Be warned... opposition sits at either end.
