Enough Plumbers
So. There's this game where you control a plumber throughout a colorful fantasy world made of blocks. You jump on enemies to kill them, travel through pipes, collect powerups including mushrooms, one that turns you into metal, and one that turns you into a balloon. The goal is to collect coins and reach the flagpole at the end of the level. Sounds familiar, right?
Aside from the part where collecting coins causes new plumbers to appear, and you control them all simultaneously, of course.
Enough Plumbers is a flash game created by Glen Forrester in 2010, building off of a previous game, Enough Marios, that he made for a contest in two hours. Plumbers can be found here.
