In what’s undeniably an intelligent and well-considered move, Wolfire Games have decided to drop their current project, Overgrowth, to work on Small Tank, a game that features a very small and cute tank. Although furry-lovers are bound to be angry over the switch, I think I respect Wolfire’s decision. Because quite frankly, the world isn’t yet ready for a rabbit with boobs that aren’t at least a D cup.
David Rosen continues his tour with an oldie but goodie from Edmund McMillen: Gish! Although at his pace, it’s less of a tour and more of a rampage. This one’s real fun.
Speaking of Wolfire, if you want a free copy of Lugaru for Christmas, all you have to do is join the Overgrowth Facebook page.
And since I’ve still got some space left, you should also check out this samurai (pizza?) cat from Overgrowth, which is looking better and better every day.
More, eh? Digs furiously into pants. Alright, here’s a series of Mario/Cave Story mashup mockups from arundhir. Okay, that’s all I got. Go home, kid! I said, go home!
Over at the Wolfire blog, updates are coming fast and furious about development of Overgrowth, also known as Lugaru 2. The latest update is a fairly lengthy discussion of how the team is thinking of generating realistic looking terrain for their game. A very interesting read… indeed.
On the art side, team artist Aubrey has posted a time-lapse video of himself working on one of his amazing conceptual pieces for the game!
Overgrowth can’t come soon enough, but in the meantime I’m going to enjoy the hell out of watching it develop.
Overgrowth (formerly known as Lugaru 2) has a gorgeous new website. Wolfire Games is now a five-man team and is working on the game full-time. Badass. I really can’t wait for this one. (Source:Tim)
And OverWave is Monokey’s latest project – a vertical shoot ‘em up with a brand new game engine that will come out before Force Majeure (which will also use said engine). (Source:the2bears)
There’s only concept art available for both these games right now, but jeez, it looks good. I got high expectations already!
