Indies Showdown

Indies Showdown is the first game Sleepless Productions ever released and the second one they ever worked on, assisted though by the team at MCleodgaming. It's been widely inspired by both Rivals of Aether and the Super Smash Bros series. The original version of the game, only in Spanish, launched on Nintendo Switch during October 7th, 2019. The later upgraded version launched October 28th, 2020 on Nintendo Switch and just the next day on Project Thunder Dragon, now available in English.

==Events==
=== 2020 ===
==== Creeps and creepers ====
For the time being only one event has been held. The "Creeps and creepers" Halloween event which allowed you to fight and recruit Madotsuki and The Penitent One as new fighters in the game. Which also rewarded you with more prizes such as higher in-game currency if you did so as Isaac or The Beheaded.

==Scrapped ideas==
* Overload Specials weren't always called this. During the first months of the game's launch the team considered calling this mechanic "Giga Beatdown" or "Ultras" before finally deciding to use the current name.
* In 2019 there was an announcement that content from Fnaf , Little Nightmares, Amnesia, and Outlast was gonna be added to the game as part of a Halloween event, eventually they cancelled it due to lack of proper planning.
** However it wasn't completely scrapped as the idea would go to develop into 2020's Halloween event; "Creeps and creepers".
