Splatter League
A downloadable game
You’re not a superhero. Superheroes are clean-cut bozos that wear capes and fuss over rules, law, morality, and order. You? You are vengeance, fury, and wrath. You are a badass that takes shit from no one, dead set on bringing ruin to enemies like fascists, corrupt businesses, corrupt government, uncorrupt government, drunks, dudes that kick dogs, subpar restaurants, or even just rude people. Do your powers make you a hero? Do your actions? Maybe sometimes, a hero is defined more by what they are against than what they are for; damn, I guess you are a superhero.
Welcome to the SPLATTER LEAGUE, the no-holds-barred, bare-knuckled game of super-powered fury. With lightning-fast character creation and lightweight rules, you’ll jump right into the action no matter if this is your first time playing a roleplaying game or if you’re a seasoned veteran.
How? Through the use of the brand new... BADASSFACTOR system. There are only two stats in the game: “Badass Factor” and “Powers.” This design is intended to be lightweight and encourages the rules to be broken and abused. The basic premise is that you should be able to do, and narrate, batshit-crazy, off-the-wall, inane, and frankly ludicrous scenes of wanton destruction and madness.
A single game could see a character going from a barely alive chump to fist-fighting Cthulhu with some sort of rocket-powered punch. You grow more powerful by making the person running the game say “Oh shit!” or “goddamn!!” Or even “That’s stupid, you insane, yet beautiful lunatic!” Power fluctuates wildly and quickly. This isn't just a philosophy but is the very crux of the mechanics of the game. It serves as a vehicle for telling off-the-cuff, insane, inane, splattery supers stories. If you want a game that is heavy on action and the only crunch is from the bad guy’s skull, we gotchu, fam.

Hey Madness Heart Games, the gameplay in Splatter League stood out to me especially the pixel animations.
I’ve worked with devs to build up visibility, wishlist numbers, and early reviews that help boost a game’s success post-launch.
Let me know if you’re looking for that kind of support happy to connect and share ideas.
The pixel animation in my tabletop roleplaying game that includes no pixel art? You have done a poor job with your spam.
i will be happy to have more chat with you
