ROCHESTER, N.Y. – July 18, 2018 – Super Daryl Deluxe, the RPGvania with a brawler-style combat system and hand-drawn comic aesthetic from Dan & Gary Games, will double the awkwardness of its protagonist today with a free co-op multiplayer update on PC via beta branch. Console version updates for Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 4 will follow later this year when the update is made live to all players on Steam.

Now Super Daryl Deluxe has twice the greasy mullet action and more terrible teenage awkwardness with the addition of a co-op multiplayer mode. Team up with another, bluer Daryl to get to the bottom of why WFHS students are suddenly disappearing.

Something strange is happening at the perfectly normal Water Falls High School (WFHS), where students visit multidimensional classrooms based on their subjects. Aid a cranky Beethoven in reclaiming his theater or fight sousaphone-playing ghosts in music class. Run errands for Napoleon Bonaparte in history. But beware, because classrooms are on lockdown and the new principal has yet to show his face to the student body.

With access to more than 45 powers, Daryl and his buddy Daryl can unleash beatings on foes roaming the halls of WFHS. Upgrade, customize, and equip up to five abilities at a time and chain them together to defeat 14 epic bosses and uncover the truth behind what’s going on.

Just because these Daryls have a common goal doesn’t mean they can’t smack each other around. Daryl and Daryl will vie for control of the Mullet Crown and the right to be the one true social outcast. Whoever has control of this holy headgear will dictate when they interact with students or loot classmates’ lockers and which class they’ll tackle next. If we’re lucky, they’ll stop fighting each other long enough to save everyone from certain doom.

“I got kind of annoyed playing Super Daryl Deluxe by myself while Dan just watched, so I added in multiplayer,’” said Gary Porter, Gary of Dan & Gary Games. “Now Dan has to play too, but he always gets the crown. I think I’ve made a terrible mistake.”

Super Daryl Deluxe is available in English for $19.99 USD and €19.99 on Steam, Nintendo Switch, and PlayStation 4. The multiplayer update will be available for free to all Super Daryl Deluxe owners.

ROCHESTER, N.Y. – April 10, 2018 – Super Daryl Deluxe, the RPGvania with a brawler-style combat system and hand-drawn comic aesthetic from Dan & Gary Games, awkwardly introduces itself today on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 and PC.

Welcome to Water Falls High School (WFHS), a prestigious and perfectly normal multidimensional educational institute, where classes are alternate worlds based on their subjects. Distill essences in giant beakers in Science or have a very weird encounter with a very drunk and naked Julius Caesar in History.

Daryl Whitelaw, WFHS’s newest student, still has a lot to learn if he wants to survive and more importantly, make friends. Students keep disappearing. The mysterious new principal sits sealed away in his office. Classrooms are on lockdown and rumors fly about the return of the little thing that almost destroyed the world 40 years ago.

Saving the day might be a stretch for someone who thinks a mullet is a fashionable haircut, but Daryl and his poor fashion sense are the last hope for the students of WFHS. Granted he’s pretty useless on his own, but with a mysterious self-help book Daryl can mix, customize, and upgrade more than 45 powers to unleash on foes.

Unfortunately for Daryl, there’s no page advising against mouth-breathing. Luckily, he can complete side quests for his classmates to try and make up for his lack of cool. Climbing the ladder of teenage judgement sucks, but if Daryl manages to get somewhere he can unlock sweet new passive abilities and other rewards.

“All I can do is look at this game and think ‘Oh no what have I done?’” said Gary Porter, Gary of Dan & Gary Games. “Our playtesters said they really like Super Daryl Deluxe, but maybe they were just trying to be nice.”

Super Daryl Deluxe is available in English for $19.99 USD and €19.99.

ROCHESTER, N.Y. – March 12, 2018 – Super Daryl Deluxe, the RPGvania with a brawler-style combat system and hand-drawn comic aesthetic from Dan & Gary Games, will proudly display its first pathetic attempt at facial hair on Nintendo Switch in addition to the previously announced upcoming PlayStation 4 and PC releases. Super Daryl Deluxe will make things weird and save the world on April 10, 2018.

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.

While he’s got combat covered, Daryl’s going to need some help making friends. Luckily, he can complete side quests to increase his social rank, gain new passive abilities, and be less of a hopeless mess. Daryl can piece together some sweet gear to beef himself up, but at the end of the day he’s still rocking his snazzy headband and mullet.

Fashion icon he’s not, but it’s up to Daryl to find out what’s happening at Water Falls High School and what connection it has to that mysterious something or another that happened four decades ago. You know, the one that almost destroyed the world. Yeah, that one.

“Super Daryl Deluxe is a deep, explorative look into the male teenage psyche,” says Gary Porter, Gary 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 will be available in English for $19.99 USD and €19.99.
