History VideoGame / SuperEpicTheEntertainmentWar

'''''[=SuperEpic=]: The Entertainment War''''' is a satirical and humorous Metroidvania style action-adventure game, starring a raccoon and a llama in their quest to save an Orwellian society from the rule of an evil corporation.\\
In the year 2084, within a world of anthropomorphic animals, a series of mergers, buyouts and hostile takeovers, leads only one videogame development company is left in the world: [=RegnantCorp=]. A huge enterprise ran by a sounder of greedy piggies. All the fun in video games has been replaced with intrusive addiction algorithms used to control people’s minds and behavior. But not all of the world’s inhabitants are under the control of the evil corporation...\\

* RealityEnsues: As stated in the BigBad entry, [[spoiler:the bad ending shows that, unlike most games, beating the final boss does not make the corporation crumble on the spot. It will continue to exist, and another executive will just replace him as another cog in the machine.]]

** The Senior Monetization Vampire is, well, a vampire pig and his dialogues and behavior are clearly spoofing Dracula from ''VideoGame/CastlevaniaSymphonyOfTheNight''.

* SuperNotDrowmingSkills: Tan Tan and Ola float on water, and picking up a certain item lets them stay underwater as much as they want.

* InformedSpecies: Ola is a llama but does not really look like one, what with its almost duck-like face.

* LaResistance: Hiding around the [=RegnantCorp=] building are some pigs that want to topple the corporation and will give Tan Tan items, special abilities and power-ups in exchange for money or gems.
* PaletteSwap: Almost averted, there are a few examples to keep the 16-bit feel of the graphics.

** The Spying Network Architect and his [[VideoGame/MetalGearSolid Metal Engine]] giant mech.

* AnimalStereotypes: All of [=RegnantCorp=]'s board and most of its employees are pigs, an animal associated with greed. They are also literal [[VisualPun capitalist pigs.]] Other enemies fill the stereotype quota too, for example owls throwing books or shark men dressed as stereotypical lawyers.

* PaletteSwap: Almost totally averted, but there are some [[BedsheetGhost ghosts]] which have hats of different colors but are otherwise identical.

** The girl pig with psychic powers that let her and other objects float looks like [[Anime/DragonBallZ Android 18.]] Other DBZ reference is the scouter worn by one of the helpful pigs that sells you stuff, and an item that looks just like the Potara earrings.

** The girl pig with psychic powers that let her float and use floating things as a shield looks like [[Anime/DragonBallZ Android 18.]] Another DBZ reference is the scouter worn by one of the helpful pigs that sells you items.

* AnimalStereotypes: All of [=RegnantCorp=]'s board and most of its employees are pigs, an animal associated with greed. They are also literal [[VisualPun capitalist pigs.]]

** The janitor pig enemies with a shield are an anthro version of Scruffy from ''WesternAnimation/{{Futurama}}''. The one you can make a deal with is even named Scruffy.

* WorldOfFunnyAnimals: Every character in this setting is an anthro animal of some sort.

** The janitor pig enemies with a shield are an anthro version of Scruffy from ''WesternAnimation/{{Futurama}}''. The one you can make a deal with is even ''named'' Scruffy.

* BigBad: [=RegnantCorp=]. [[spoiler:Unlike most games where its CEO himself is the main bad guy, as the [[FinalBoss Pig Executive Officer]] puts it, he's just a cog in the corporate machine, and can easily be replaced if defeated, as shown in the bad ending.]]

* BigBad: [=RegnantCorp=]. [[spoiler:Unlike most games where its CEO himself is the main bad guy, as the FinalBoss puts it, he's just a cog in the corporate machine, and can easily be erased if defeated, as shown in the bad ending.]]
