Overview
Battle for the Underground is a 2D, side-scrolling platformer built using TorqueX Game Builder. Players control Walfar as he fends off hordes of emo kids and attempts to rejoin his Norwegian Metal band, Flackenblach, on stage. Walfar weapons are a powerful, hair-whipping Head Bang attack and a mid-air Combat Jump that not only allows him to jump higher, but shoots a fireball out of his ass! The game’s gentle satire of underground music mixed with the classic platforming gameplay makes for a fun and engaging title.
