It sounds like another Burger King game, but trust us, it’s not.

When and where video did games became obsessed with combos, exactly? Likely it was far before anything we could guess on some extremely obscure Intellivision game that only a handful of hardcore elitists remember. Regardless, there’s no denying that combos have found their way into every genre, whether it’s role-playing games (Final Fantasy XIII) or especially fighting games (pretty much all of them) and side-scrolling beat-em-ups (Castle Crashers). Super Comboman is a member of the latter, and as the name implies, it takes the combo aspect to a whole new level.
Players will take control of Struggles, a Pacific islander with a “three piece mullet.†Struggles will run around various destructible 2D environments beating the crap out of everyone who stands in his way. And he can increase his combo-tastic arsenal by clicking stickers. Yes, stickers.
I was given an early look at Super Comboman while developer Interabang was part of the IGN Indie Open House, and the game looks like a quirky little brawler with colorful visuals. I’m intrigued to see how the deep, combo-reliant gameplay turns out on a touchscreen, but I believe in the power of the three piece mullet.Super Comboman is being developed for PC and iOS with no announced release date.
