Once upon a time, there was a little boy who, like most boys, loved ice-cream. He watched
eagerly as the ice-cream shop owner scooped the last scoop of his favorite flavor when suddenly, a regal looking man with a large mustache burst into the shop demanding the same flavor - it was the Mustache King. The shop owner gave the boy’s cone to the Mustache King.
“Who was that, and why did you give him my ice-cream!?” demanded the boy of the shop owner. The owner replied, “That was the Mustache King, and all must obey the ‘stache of the king.” “Who made him king?” “By the laws of our beloved moustachracy, whoever bears the moustache of a king shall rule over all.” The boy left in a huff but returned a week later, his upper-lip wielding a mighty, yet untested, moustache. He was determined to become the Moustache King! This is an action platformer in the same vein as Castlevania or Zelda II. Players must run or later catapult-warp from town to town to fight various barons, gather power-ups and grow their moustache until it and its owner are formidable enough to be king. Players also earn extra health (tins of moustache wax) from defeating barons and finding kittens. The game was made for the AGBIC competition. The premise of the competition was to design an a game based upon a previously existing fictitious game cartridge. It's based off of an image by Niko Lanzuisi. |
