All Articles: Super Daryl Deluxe

Owlboy, Rick and Morty: Virtual Rick-ality, Super Daryl Deluxe, more coming to PS Store this week

A handful of side-scrollers, a dimension-hopping VR adventure, and a game where you hunt giant ogres that look a little like Shrek top this week’s PlayStation Store update.

Owlboy was in development at D-Pad Studio for almost ten years before its PC debut in 2016, and now it’s coming to the PS4. Another colorful side-scroller, Super Daryl Deluxe, a hand-drawn beat ’em up/RPGvania, is also now available to download for Sony’s home console.

If you’re looking to give your PlayStation VR headset a workout this week, Owlchemy Labs will release Rick and Morty: Virtual Rick-ality for the PS4.

And finally, Iron Galaxy (the creators of the Killer Instinct reboot) will bring their ogre-hunting adventure game, Extinction, to the PS4.

You can learn more about the rest of this week’s additions to the PlayStation Store after the break. (more…)

Super Daryl Deluxe is a hand-drawn action RPG… and it’ll be available on April 10

Posted on March 13, 2018 by John Scalzo

Dan & Gary Games has announced they’ll release their debut title, Super Daryl Deluxe, for the PC, PS4, and Switch on April 10. Featuring hand-drawn graphics and an original soundtrack, players take control of a hapless high schooler named Daryl in the game, and they’ll need obtain a variety of superpowers if they want to save the day:

Water Falls High School, of course, is a perfectly normal multidimensional high school. Its classrooms literally whisk students away to alternate worlds coinciding with their subjects, where kids can do anything from arguing the value of capitalism with Joseph Stalin in History to offering a fist bump to Oedipus in Literature. You know, just like every other school.

What’s not normal are the missing students, the locked down classrooms, and the shadowy principal that no one has actually seen. Not to mention something about a secret that nearly destroyed the world 40 years ago.

Enter Daryl Whitelaw, the poorly-postured mouth-breather who just wants to make friends that has found himself the unlikely hero of this story. With the aid of a self-help book, Daryl can attain more than 45 powers, from thrashing enemies with an axe three times his weight to cleaning their faces up with a mop. Abilities can be customized and upgraded, making for endless playstyles and combinations.

A new trailer for Super Daryl Deluxe has been embedded above, and it’ll give you a good idea about what to expect with this side-scrolling action RPG in the “MetroidVania” mold.
