The Superfluous is a rogue-lite platformer featuring jet packs and squad-based mechanics. Bring a crew of specialized spacemen to explore an asteroid on a collision course with Earth. Navigate different biomes and experience an entertaining story while you do it.
Sci-Fi - I love reading all types of science fiction {Asimov, Niven, Heinlein, Card, Howey, Clark, Wells, etc.} and have always tried to find a way to include that genre in my games.
Rogue-like - This game is more like a rogue-lite. There is perma-death if your squad members die: but gear-levels and game progress are persistent.
Progress - Your squad mates gain levels through progressing through the cave, killing enemies, unlocking lore, missions, etc. Each level will unlock Perks giving your squad mate special abilities or passive bonuses. These perks are lost when squadmates die.
Cave Diving - Without divulging too much of the story, this game takes place on a giant asteroid. Inside this asteroid are many dangers and rewards for your men/women to find.
Story - Humor is the keyword here. More on this later
Platformer - Side scrolling, cave diving, rocket jumping.
