About Indiecalypse


Three stories, three outcasts, three nerds… and a single destiny: to make the best video game ever. This is the basic premise of Indiecalypse, JanduSoft’s upcoming release, sadly based on actual events.

Indiecalypse depicts the crude reality of indie game developers and their struggles to get their shit together when it comes to releasing a video game.

Three misfits team up to design and produce their own indie game, finding themselves in a path of chaos, self-destruction and resentment. But there’s also space for crude humor, pop culture references, gratuitous and non-gratuitous violence... and fear. Fear of the dozens of lawsuits for copyright infringement, obscenity and profanity we’ll have to face if the game is finally published.

It sounds wonderful, but…
How do I play Indiecalypse?

In Indiecalypse we'll play as Jack Jackson (programming), Ethan Wornick (music) and Violet Oakly (art), and live their own particular stories. The game's main mechanic is based on modern exploration/adventure games, but Indiecalypse also includes more than 20 mini-games, most of them copied, sorry, based (let's say inspired by...) some of the most popular games and mechanics in video game history. Check them out below!

Not everything is what it seems in Indiecalypse, and we know for sure that no one will be left indifferent after playing it.

What are you waiting for? Join this epic adventure.

Features:
  • The definitive Indie Developer Experience
  • More than 20 mini-games, most of them inspired by well-know indie games
  • Different playable characters: Jack, Ethan & Violet
  • A lot of Cinematics
  • Dark Humor

Indiecalypse is a great concept. However, when the charm of the idea and "Cal-arts" Artstyle wears off, You're left with Minigames that range from Tolerable to incredibly Poor. It's a shame too, because whilst the humour only warrants a chuckle, the game is well animated and has a decent amount of charm behind it. The controls can just be far, far too unresponsive and the Minigames are Badly Explained. to give you a good idea of how bad the controls are, they messed up Geometry Dash Controls. You know, a game that requires one button to play. It's not offensively bad but i would not recommend it unless you can look behind the horse-waste that some mini-games offer.

Total garbage devs! The game takes 2-3 hours to beat! The devs spit on content creators with how they work with them! Totally an awful game! Go play Fortnite and get your money's worth there!! My review of Devs and Game! https://youtu.be/RmxpAODXAOo

This game is a very disingenuous piece of work that has a LOT to say about others, but doesn't actually bring anything to the table itself (not to mention, not all of the games are even indie game parodies, like the Punch Out section)

Indiecalypse, developed and published by JanduSoft, is a chaotic, genre-hopping satire that attempts to lampoon the struggles of indie game development through an eclectic mix of mini-games, exaggerated characters, and irreverent humor. At its core, it follows three unlikely collaborators—a programmer, an artist, and a musician—whose attempt to create their dream game spirals into absurdity. Rather than delivering a traditional linear adventure, it unfolds as a rapid-fire sequence of gameplay segments stitched together by comedic cutscenes and self-aware commentary. The structure of the experience revolves around a series of short mini-games, each inspired by recognizable gaming genres. Players might suddenly find themselves in a side-scrolling shooter, then moments later navigating a rhythm challenge, puzzle segment, or reflex-based action sequence. This constant shifting is designed to keep the experience unpredictable and playful, echoing the chaotic reality of juggling multiple ideas during game development. Some mini-games are inventive and amusing, successfully parodying the mechanics they emulate, while others feel abrupt or underdeveloped, lacking the refinement needed to …
