Owlboy devs reveal Vikings on Trampolines
The designers of Owlboy (opens in brand-new tab) have actually exposed their next video game, the wonderfully entitled Vikings onTrampolines You may think there’s more to it than the name, and there type of is, however truthfully it’s plainly about vikings and they are bouncing on trampolines. It’s an easy idea, one which developers D-Pad studios state is naturally available because the controls actually just require one hand, however it’ll have a singleplayer and cooperative project, multiplayer difficulties, and a range of minigames.
The project will see you handle “the bad Balloonie,” probably by bouncing on and strongly popping his henchmen, who are likewise balloons. Multiplayer fights vary from the simple-sounding– knock other vikings off the trampolines– to numerous rather complex-looking phases, total with powerups. There will likewise be “trampoline sports,” an expression I discover both electrical and thrilling in this context, though no exact examples are provided beyond what appears like soccer, in the trailer.
Vikings on Trampolines does not yet have a release date, however you can discover it on Steam and its main site, in the meantime. We do not anticipate it’ll take them as laboriously long as it took them to make Owlboy, which they stated took 9 years. The expose of Vikings on Trampolines makes this a banner week for specific niche video game category “Games That Are Exactly What Their Title Says” following the expose of Squirrel with a Gun.
