Woo!
Just released our first game Sum Fighter on XBLIG!
In short, Sum Fighter is a mishmash of Blocksum and Puzzle Fighter. Two games we hold near and dear to our hearts.
In long, here’s our press blurb:
Sum Fighter is a math based puzzle fighter. Choose from one of six high school archetypes, use their unique abilities to bury your opponents and rise to the top of the school math competition.
To crush your opponent, rapidly add numbers to destroy blocks on your board and drop them into your opponent’s board. To destroy your blocks, you must drag adjacent blocks together, combining their face values. Once you’ve connected as many groups together as their face value the blocks disappear (players would connect five groups of the value 5 to destroy them or two groups of the value 2 and so on). The first player whose blocks reach and stay at the top for ten seconds loses. Our narrated tutorial steps the player through our mechanics before their first match.
Each character has their own path through story mode with their own unique character interactions and ending. The Jock, Nerd, Emo, Tagger, Principal and Librarian each have a unique ability they can unleash on their opponent, in order to be crowned the Sum Fighter Champion!
Sum Fighter Features:
- Fully animated intro.
- A narrated tutorial.
- 2 Player vs, and Story Modes.
- 6 Different endings.
- 8 Expertly composed music tracks.
Sum Fighter is available now on Xbox Live Indie Games for 240 Microsoft Points!
So what are you waiting for! Go grab the trial! Make your friends grab the trial! Make that acquaintance you haven’t talked to in months, but once waxed nostalgic about Tetris Attack one slow afternoon get the trial! Make that guy who casually mentioned he played Drop7 nab the trial!
Can you say no to these mostly smiling faces?
Help this niche puzzle game thrive :P
On another note, if you’re in the New Brunswick region (Google Analytics is telling me the chances are slim) pop into the Miramichi Jalloo Festival of Animation and Games. In celebration of Sum Fighter’s release we’ve set up a copy of the game to play in the festival arcade!
