“Experience high school again in Super Daryl Deluxe, the last totally normal high school themed RPGvania you’ll ever want.”
Hailing from Rochester, New York is the artist-programmer duo Dan & Gary Games who are hard at work bringing their first title: Super Daryl Deluxe to the forefront of the gaming world. Super Daryl Deluxe brings the classic 2D setting of the Metroidvania genre and fuses it together with RPG elements and a brawler-style combat system opting for an “RPGvania” experience. Today, the duo announced in a press release that their “first pathetic attempt at facial hair” will be debuting across the Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 and Microsoft Windows on April 10th 2018, making things weird while simultaneously saving the world.
Super Daryl Deluxe places you in the shoes of Daryl Whitelaw, a poorly-postured mouth-breather who just wants to make friends at his new school of Water Falls High, which is a school with the ability to whisk it’s students in and out of alternate worlds. Daryl finds himself on a path to find his missing classmates as well as discover the secret that nearly destroyed the world 40 years ago. Featuring side quests that allows Daryl to raise his social rank, over 45 abilities that he can learn with the aid of his self-help book, as well as a trusty battle axe and mop that Daryl can use to dispatch his enemies, Super Daryl Deluxe definitely looks like it’s going to live up to its “RPGvania” namesake.“Super Daryl Deluxe is a deep, explorative look into the male teenage psyche” says Gary Porter, of Dan & Gary Games. “Nah, just kidding. It is pretty good though. You should check it out before all your friends so you can tell them how great it is and how you played it before they did and how much better than them you are.”
Super Daryl Deluxe launches on April 10th at the price point of $19.99 / €19.99 initially available in English only.
