DeathSpank (XBLA, PSN)
Charming. Intelligent. Enigmatic. These are just a few words that nobody ever uses when describing DeathSpank. Developed by indie developer and publisher Hothead Games and created by Ron Gilbert of LucasArts adventure game fame, “DeathSpank” will bring to life the hilarious adventures of the game’s titular hero. Set on a wrap-around world map with a unique art style utilizing 2D elements in a 3D world, DeathSpank will roam the world on his many varied quests without ever encountering a load screen.
“DeathSpank” is scheduled to be published in 2010 by Electronic Arts as part of its EA Partners program.
On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness, Episode Two (XBLA, PSN, PC, Mac, Linux)
The madcap Penny Arcade experience continues in Episode Two of the RPG-adventure game series! Players can jump right in with a fresh character and new customization options or carry over their look and stats from Episode One. Plus, there are more puzzles, areas to explore, levels to gain and new difficulty settings to make the journey more insane than ever before. Rejoin Gabe and Tycho to go crazy with a whole new episode, moving ever closer to solving the mystery in the heart of New Arcadia.
On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness, Episode One (XBLA, PSN, PC, Mac, Linux)
Welcome to an RPG-Adventure game set in the deranged 1920s universe of New Arcadia, delivered to gamers via accessible episodic releases. Players join Gabe and Tycho, the crime-solving team of the Startling Developments Detective Agency, to combat savage enemies and solve mysteries hidden deep in the sinister heart of New Arcadia. The game is the result of close collaboration between Hothead Games and Penny Arcade, featuring distinct artwork and characters designed exclusively by Mike “Gabe” Krahulik, story and dialogue by Jerry “Tycho” Holkins, both brought to life by the Hothead team.
