Twisted Pixel (Comic Jumper, Splosion Man), has just gone and announced the studio’s next title in the form of ‘The Gunstringer’ for Xbox 360 Kinect, an action game with elements of an arcade light-gun shooter.
In the game, you play as the titular ‘The Gunstringer,’ a skeleton cowboy character that you’re able to manipulate and control with your hands, like a puppeteer, using the Kinect for motion recognition.
[Update] This just keeps getting better! A debut trailer for Twisted Pixel’s latest game has been released! Check it out below! [End of Update]
We’ve been patiently waiting for close on two weeks now for downloadable game masters Twisted Pixel to announce the studio’s next fantastic title, and now, finally, the developer has obliged by revealing the existence of a follow-up to 2009’s action platform and puzzle game, Splosion Man.
The name of this follow-up? Ms. Splosion Man.
Twisted Pixel released the following excellent press release, reproduced here in full due to the aforementioned excellence:
Indie game developer Twisted Pixel has rapidly become one of the ‘go to’ studios for original, creative and humorous titles, starting with the excellent action adventure game, The Maw, in early 2009, continuing on with the awesomeness of ‘Splosion Man later that year, and capping it all off with the 2010 release of the brilliant Comic Jumper.
Now, Twisted Pixel is teasing the announcement of the company’s fourth mystery game with a countdown clock on its website, with the reveal set to happen on December 2nd.
But… maybe it’s not the studio’s fourth game. Maybe it’s something else?
Twisted Pixel recently announced that the team has crafted an epic soundtrack for their most recent Xbox LIVE Arcade game, Comic Jumper, while letting everyone know that it can be found on their website right now.
But the best news about the announcement is that this Comic Jumper soundtrack is absolutely free!
Here’s a bit of additional cool news from Twisted Pixel’s marketing director, Jay Stuckwisch:
We all know by now that Twisted Pixel’s latest downloadable title for Xbox LIVE Arcade, Comic Jumper, has been unleashed onto the Marketplace, and is currently earning an enormous amount of ‘Internet Kudos’ and positive buzz thanks to the game’s sharp humour, great characters, and fantastic environments, action and situations.
But if there’s one guy that won’t rest until everybody on Xbox LIVE Marketplace knows about Comic Jumper, it’s Xbox frontman Larry ‘Major Nelson’ Hryb, and in the Inside Xbox video below, Nelson shows you just how far he’s willing to go in the name of Twisted Pixel’s awesome new game.
Watch ‘Nelson’ run for his life in an attempt to escape real life BradBots, as ‘he’ climbs over tables, wall-runs, dupes an unwitting bystander into becoming a diversion, and more.
A brilliant, excellently humorous video, which should be watched by you… now:
Are you having a bit of a bad day? A bad week, even? Do you need a good, solid pick-me-up game to help slap a smile on your face?
Well my friend, look no further than the latest addition to Xbox LIVE Arcade’s line-up of games, Comic Jumper!
Already being called ‘hilarious’ by basically everyone residing on the Internet, Comic Jumper is what one would term a ‘mega-action, super-platform game,’ as this title simply wouldn’t be content with normal videogame standards and conventions.
If you’ve seen any gameplay footage, you’ll certainly understand!
The time has come! Twisted Pixel and Microsoft Game Studios have today jointly announced an official release date for the developer’s awesome upcoming game, Comic Jumper!
In addition, Twisted Pixel has revealed the fourth comic style to be included in Comic Jumper, and it’s none other than the unmistakable Japanese art technique of Manga!
