Super Indiemania

ENG: A Castlevania so indie that it's about rescuing indie developers, with an unserious plot, much like its trailer. On the positive side, it's entertaining and, despite being somewhat simplistic in its gameplay, it offers diverse content: maps, bosses, weapons, and a sort of WTF transformation/vehicles. The number of enemies is vast, and they all have well-crafted death animations, which shows that a lot of effort was put into it. On the negative side, the levels are somewhat linear, and the game lacks originality overall, relying heavily on the nostalgia factor. You won't discover anything new with Super Indiemania, but you'll have a good time, especially in the boss fights.

Por el lado positivo, es entretenido y, a pesar de ser algo simplón en su jugabilidad, tiene contenido diverso: mapas, jefes, armas y una especie de transformación/vehículos medio WTF. La cantida…

This game is worth every penny. I'm always hunting for Castlevania clones and Indiemania really does well putting its own spin on the formula. The only thing that made me apprehensive to try it was the amateurish art, but the screenshots don't really capture how skillful the animations are. There's little as rewarding as beating a tough boss battle and being duly rewarded with images of their head being ripped open and brains splattering all over. So much is going on under the hood here, and it's all about the little touches. This probably has my favorite implementation of the Sonic-style underwater air bubble mechanic. Occasionally there's fun sections where you're able to use an item/creature that grants unique powers, like turning into a giant frog or a plant helicopter. The levels are expansive and encourage a little bit of exploration and there's so much enemy variety between stages. I would feel no shame buying such a fully featured game at full price. Please make more!

I've only reached Stage 2 but this is good stuff and I've played a crap ton of these "vanias" Always eat the wall meat. Developer is responsive in the forums.

Decent Castlevania like game.

Just started playing this game and i already enjoy it so much. The music and art is really impressive, and the gameplay is challenging and rewarding. Love the fun variety of weapons. An awesome game :D good job, dev!!

This game was hard. I beat it on easy out of 3 total difficulties, which still felt difficult. But this game definitely feels rewarding once you complete a stage. The ending was worth it. It plays and reminds me of old SNES games. Like Mario, Lost Vikings, Castlevania, and many others. Would recommend.
