DOOMWHEEL!

,
keyart_2017_01_10.jpg

Hey Katsu fans, we've got big news! Today we are announcing our new project, DOOMWHEEL. Working with Games Workshop is a total blast and we can't wait to show you more. To start off, have a bite of this press release: DOOMWHEEL, a wickedly fast-paced infinite runner is currently in development by Katsu Entertainment, in collaboration with Games Workshop®. Doomwheel will be coming to mobile devices in 2017.

The Skaven underworld is a rat's nest of deceit, danger, and backstabbing. As an up-and-coming warlock enginseer of clan Skryre, your only goal is to rise through the ranks of the ratmen by building the ultimate engine of destruction: the fastest and most powerful Doomwheel ever made! Powered by scampering rats and hallucinogenic warpstone, the Doomwheel embodies the sheer inhuman ingenuity of the Skaven race: an enormous iron-reinforced wheel, outfitted with spikes, blades, and blasting powerful bolts of lethal warp lightning as it crushes all in its path: enemies, or the least fortunate of your allies.

Pilot your Doomwheel as it rattles through the battlefield at breakneck speeds in this fast-paced infinite arcade adventure. Dwarves got you down? Doomwheel. Rival clans done you wrong? Doomwheel. Goblin grief? Doomwheel. Shatter, skewer, shock and bounce foes of all shapes, sizes, and races as you claw out territory for yourself across the Old World. Develop a newer, deadlier, Doomwheel in your workshop while fending off the vengeful plots of your backstabbing rivals.

"No man-thing can think to surpass my genius, yes-yes!" said Ikit Claw, Clan Skyre Warlock Enginseer and talented inventor of the original Doomwheel. "Let them try!"

"Run, you fools!" said Imperial Wizard Thomas Steiner, immediately before disappearing beneath an active Doomwheel. Steiner was unavailable for further comment.

Doomwheel is coming to smash everything in its path on mobile devices in 2017. Because sometimes you just need to run things over: Doomwheel.

Looking Back: Sausage Bomber

,

One of my favorite parts about making games is when you can take a step back and see the progress that's been made over the course of a project. Sausage Bomber isn't done yet but it's come a long way from the very first prototype. Check it out: The Sausage Bomber Prototype

The idea for Sausage Bomber came up at a dinner with friends. Later that night while sitting in front of the TV I cooked up a little app with found artwork. As you can see, back then you could drop as many sausages as you wanted. No enemies, no scenery, just a lot of sausages. But even that was fun and made us laugh so we knew we were on the right track. After several months of tweaking and figuring out gameplay, and with the help of some very skilled artists, we've got something that looks like this:

Sausage Bomber, January 2016

Looks like a game, right? We're still not done - new art is coming in - but it's quite a difference, huh? But still sausages and bombers, the chewy center of the game.

Hey, Katsu! you say, why don't you show us some images of the evolution of the Hello Kitty World of Friends game? Well, that's because we've teamed up with our friends at Assorted Nuts and Sanrio to make that game, and when we work with partners we only show the game in the best possible way, as a finished product. When we work with you to make a game, folks will only see the best of your game, too.

Sausage Bomber Gameplay Footage

, ,

One of the cool things about being a small indie developer is having lots of new experiences. Right now we're in the process of submitting Sausage Bomber to game festivals and showcases. It's still in what we'd consider a "pre-alpha" state, but we had a great response from the crowd at ECGC and are excited about sharing the game with everybody. As part of submissions we've cooked up some gameplay footage for you to enjoy.one of our goals is to design the levels so that they can be (with a bit of luck) completed using only one bomb. Much like rocking a rhyme, it's tricky! But this video is evidence that it can be done if you believe in yourself and never give up. Stay tuned for more!

Oh, did you want one of these?

What are those? Are ... are they Sausage Bomber buttons? If I have one will I be part of the super-mega-elite Sausage Bomber Corps? Yes and yes.

We've cooked up a limited supply of these promo buttons that frankly I'd love to just keep for myself, but We'll be giving them out at our booth at the upcoming East Coast Game Conference. So not only do you get to actually play the game, you get to represent the SB by sporting one of these guys. If that isn't value for your convention dollar I don't know what is.

Here's the catch - to get a button you need to like Katsu on Facebook or follow us on Twitter. You're probably already doing that anyway.

Oh hang on, did we mention that we're making a game called Sausage Bomber and that we'll be showing it off at our booth at ECGC? This counts as an announcement, right?
