Hoboman
SteamHoboman is a 2D collectathon platformer with SNES-like graphics and a fun story centered around Pluto, a ship mechanic from the planet Voltra. When tragedy strikes, Pluto is thrown into a wild adventure to reclaim his old way of life. By stowing away on ships, Pluto stumbles on a plot that is larger than he could have imagined...

Note: This game is best played with controller, though keyboard is also supported. If you have issues with a controller setup, it is likely caused by Steam's Desktop Controller configuration, which causes controller buttons to also press Keyboard keys. Turning this off will provide the best possible experience.
