Description
It's 8:08am on the 8th of August, 1988, and the diabolical Dr. H8 has pushed humanity to the edge of obliteration! His ultimatum couldn't be clearer: hand over $88 octillion within 88 minutes, or watch as his arsenal of 88 thermo-nuclear warheads reduces the entire planet to ash! So who exactly stands between civilization and total destruction? The greatest warriors? The most elite operatives? Not quite... meet the 88 Heroes!
Get ready to storm Dr. H8's fortress with the most bizarre, baffling and utterly ridiculous collection of superheroes ever assembled! Spread across 88 grueling levels standing between you and the villainous doctor himself, with just 88 seconds to blitz through each stage and the dreaded Doomsday countdown already underway, you'll command 88 one-of-a-kind characters – every single one packing their own peculiar abilities – through a wild adventure of platform-leaping, enemy-pummeling and hazard-evading heroics to spare the world from utter catastrophe!
Can this motley crew of 88 Heroes actually pull it off? For everyone's sake, let's hope so! They tried calling the best of the best, but apparently they had other plans…

Can this motley crew of 88 Heroes actually pull it off? For everyone's sake, let's hope so! They tried calling the best of the best, but apparently they had other plans…
- 88 wildly distinct heroes! Uncover each character's extraordinary powers and harness them to overcome every stage – but be warned, once they fall in battle, they're gone for good (mostly, anyway)!
- 88 uniquely crafted levels! Navigate the depths of Dr. H8's sprawling lair across four thrilling worlds, steering clear of treacherous traps and ruthless enemies out for heroic blood.
- 88 seconds on the clock per level! Time is already slipping away; can you battle your way up to Dr. H8's penthouse atop his orbiting space station before that terrifying 88-minute Doomsday timer hits zero?!
- Limitless replayability! The hero lineup shuffles every time you play to ensure no two runs feel alike, and you can challenge yourself to save humanity with just your eight favorite heroes – or even attempt it solo. Best of luck!

I'm so glad I found this gem of a game! It's very retro-ish, and parodies Mario, Ninja Turtles, Portal, a TON of movies, and some other funny little things. It's really entertaining in a silly sort of way, and a little

I had received this game for well under five dollars on sale. It was well worth it as it's fun and enjoyable for what it is. It doesn't take itself seriously but the controls are good and about a quarter of the

A brutally hard plattformer where you get 88 lives but they are each a different wacky character. Most have a gimmick which either helps or hinders your gameplay. Very few are OP as hell. This is only recommended for

This game has its charm in its presentation and gimmicks, but that's all it has. While the gimmick is 88 different characters with powers bordering on useful to useless, the rest of the game is tedious and frustrating.

I mean its kind of fun to see all the references of the heroes. This is the best part of the game. The main-gameplay isnt that fun and some things are more annoying than fun to me. Some design decisions try to make this

i absolutely love this game. the premise of having 88 heroes, 88 levels, 88 seconds per level and 88 minutes in total to finish the game is brilliant. at first you may think this is really hard to do. but keep at it. i
