Sumoman - is a horizontal arcade puzzler with an advanced physics, destructible objects and ability to reverse time. The players will solve various physical puzzles, trying to keep a sumoman on his feet in the challenging environments.
Sumoman has became one of 8 finalist in Main Competition of the 6th Independent Games Festival China (IGF China 2014)! So, we are going to Shanghai on GDC China. The game is powered by UNIGINE engine.
Sumoman Story
A young Sumoman returning home from the sumo tournament finds his fellow countrymen in a dramatic peril. An Evil Mage has enchanted the inhabitants of the island, including the magnificent Daughter of the Daimyo, putting them to the eternal sleep.
Our clumsy yet fearless hero starts his journey across the stony islands, dark mountain caves, mysterious haunted mansions, deserted flotilla of merchant ships and many other scenic environments to reach the Daimyo's castle. He will have to overcome the puzzling contraptions and threatening surroundings to face the Evil Mage. Sumoman makes no haste, because nothing can be worse for a noble hero than to fall over and lie helplessly.
Split-Screen Mode
We have already implemented core game mechanics, some levels for single player and two split-screen modes for two players - Race and King of the Hill. It is the most funniest part of the game.

Thank you, Leon.
I have made all graphics. Except the animations, I have paid for it to one good freelancer.Almost all code is made by my yonger brother. One our good freind helps us time to time with coding.
And there are sound guys in the other country, who offered us to make sound for the game.
So, most of all was maded by only two developers. =)
