It's Super Virgin Samurai!

You are the Super Virgin Samurai, a sad, lonely and big-boned manchild who dreams of one day becoming a true Japanese Samurai. Unfortunately, your bones are a little bigger than you think they are -- but as you step outside of your home for the first time in months, you find a sword imbued with magical powers. These magical powers just so happen to be represented by numbers, and when you grab the sword you realize you are now WAY STRONGER!

Entranced with hope and wonder, you truly are the Super Virgin Samurai! Hack'n'slash your way through hordes of the evil, goo-like Doombies! Collect over SEVERAL MILLION PROCEDURALLY-GENERATED SWORDS! Use special scrolls on the swords to reveal their secret stats and see what powers they hold! Use your awesome stats to kill even more powerful foes and get even more loot with even better stats! Jump higher! Run faster! Throw their attacks right back in their faces! Be the Super Virgin Samurai you've always dreamed of being!



In short; Super Virgin Samurai is a single-screen hack'n'slash action/platformer in the vein of such titles as Super Crate Box. Jam that together with the loot system of Borderlands and there you have it. The loot generation system is mostly implemented -- more on that in a later post.

Stay tuned for some technical updates. Still undecided on the name; I think Supercreep sounds nice, and it's a little more PG than "Super Virgin". But who knows?
