Warner Bros To Get Rid Of Adult Swim Games Division In Very Warner Bros Fashion

Warner Bros To Get Rid Of Adult Swim Games Division In Very Warner Bros Fashion

, , , 6

Warner Bros has revealed they’re shutting down Adult Swim Games, the off-branch of the cable network that specialized in publishing mostly small, quirky indie titles. If you had to guess how they’re doing it, what would you assume? You’d be correct…they’re simply delisting all the games from Steam with no chance of return. At least they’ve given advance warning this time: the removal of that library is supposed to happen within 60 days, or two months, so if there was any Adult Swim Game that struck your fancy yet you never pulled the trigger on, you still have a chance. The full list of games is at this link. Mind, WB didn’t formally announce the impending death of ASG. The reason we know about it is because they told the developers of these games, and the developers vented their frustration to social media and to reporters. Owen Deery, creator of Small Radios Big Televisions, was the first to blab, and as an apology for events he can’t control, he is

Samurai Jack: Battle Through Time Announced For Summer

Samurai Jack: Battle Through Time Announced For Summer

, , , , , , 0

Jack is back! Sort of. The cartoon series has wrapped up its story for good (thank you, Adult Swim), but you can experience a lost chapter from the wandering samurai’s adventures when Samurai Jack: Battle Through Time is released for consoles and PC. It turns out that right before Jack went into his final confrontation with the villainous (yet loveable) Aku, the dark demon zapped Jack into an alternate timeline! (What, again?) To return, Jack must team up with the friends he gained throughout the series to re-battle the entire lineup of villains he faced during those five seasons. The narrative is, essentially, an excuse to give Samurai Jack fans what they want from a game. You decide if it’s canon. Want to know more about Samurai Jack: Battle Through Time? There’s no demo yet, but the game will be shown off at PAX East. Samurai Jack creator Genndy Tartakovsky and head writer Darrick Bachman will be in attendance at the Adult Swim Games panel, which takes place in the

Rise And Shine Comes To Nintendo Switch

Rise And Shine Comes To Nintendo Switch

, , , , , , 0

Adult Swim Games’ Rise and Shine was released in 2017 for Playstation 4, XBox One and PC. Now with the addition of another console to the market, it’s time to Rise and Shine once more — on Switch. Rise and Shine is primarily a shooter, but not a mindless one. There is a good deal of puzzle-solving mixed into the run-and-gun-ness of it; many obstacles and even some bosses cannot be defeated without figuring out a brainteasing trick. An irreverent sense of humor keeps you giggling as you play while parodying the game industry at large. This is a rare case where the developer’s own name (Super Awesome Hyper Dimensional Mega Team) is better than the game’s name. For easier reference, they often shorten it to “Super Mega Team.” Popgeeks took a look at the XBox version of Rise and Shine last year; read our review. The game is available on the Nintendo eShop as of this minute, for $14.99. Rise & Shine combines the bullet-hell action of an arcade shooter

There are more than 100 levels featuring soccer, mini-golf, winter sports, summer sports, dive bars, birthday cakes, motorcycle gangs, a Ferris wheel, castles, ghosts, zombies, lollipop forests, wheat (wheat?), and a variety of other things that can’t even be described. Pool Panic is a sprawling adventure game starring a mischievous cue ball in a giant game of pool across a colorful cartoon overworld filled with jungles, deserts, carnivals, cities, and more to explore.

Yesterday, Nintendo hosted their first Nindies Showcase of the year. Where they showed off some of the indie games that you can enjoy on the system this year. One of them is an exclusive title from Adult Swim Games, and it’s called Pool Panic. Check out the details below: “Adult Swim Games has announced it will publish independent developer Rekim’s sprawling adventure game, Pool Panic, “soon” on Nintendo Switch™ and Windows PC. Pool Panic is the world’s least realistic pool simulator. Play as a mischievous, and dare we say, oblivious cue ball in a giant game of pool that sprawls across a colorful cartoon overworld with more than 100 levels. Explore jungles, deserts, carnivals, cities and more while knocking around a peculiar cast of billiard balls, most of which won’t appreciate being pocketed. A variety of evolving rule sets and mechanics force players to think strategically about how to line up the perfect shot through each stage, whether it’s solving puzzles or fighting bosses.

Rain World Comes To PS4 In Two Weeks

Rain World Comes To PS4 In Two Weeks

, , , , , 0

In a fortnight, Rain World will be upon us. The 2D exploration/survival game from Videocult and Adult Swim Games casts you as a mutant animal in a land of mutant animals. They don’t call it “Rain World” for nothing — a big storm is coming and you’ve got to run, climb, hide and hunt to survive the oncoming downpour. You are a nomadic slugcat, both predator and prey in a broken ecosystem. Grab your spear and brave the industrial wastes, hunting enough food to survive, but be wary— other, bigger creatures have the same plan… and slugcats look delicious. If you say so. Though Rain World won’t be downloadable for another two weeks, you can preorder it on Playstation 4 starting today. It’s cheap at just $20, and if you’re a PS Plus member, you’ll get a 20% discount. Rain World will also be available on Steam. Now here’s a trailer…. Torrential rains are approaching and you, lonely little Slugcat, must scour the industrial wasteland for nourishment and shelter from

Rise & Shine (Xbox One) Review

Rise & Shine (Xbox One) Review

, , , , 0

There is a particular problem, not really associated with other forms of media, that plagues video games that aim to lampoon the industry. While other types of parody simply have to be funny to be considered a success, a game has to pull this off while simultaneously managing to still be a decent experience to play. Otherwise the joke, and the title itself, will simply fall flat. This is the challenge that faces Rise & Shine, a video game that draws almost all of its inspiration and humor from the industry it is part of. Rise & Shine sets its tone very early. The plot begins with the player being introduced to the protagonist, a young boy named Rise, who has to take on the mantle of hero when he comes across a legendary sword known as Shine. Together, the two must battle a horde of invading evil space grunts while they try to reach a mythical location that cane somehow stop the threat and restore some semblance of peace

Headlander (Xbox One) Review

Headlander (Xbox One) Review

, , , , , , , , 0

Headlander is exactly the type of game that you would expect Double Fine Productions, the Tim Schafer company that has been responsible for the likes of Psychonauts and Brutal legend, to make. The only real difference between it and some of their other output is that they have squarely prioritized gameplay over everything else, meaning that the story and action isn’t quite as in-depth or funny as you might expect, but boy is it really fun. The game takes place in an unspecified futuristic setting that is very much inspired by the likes of Logan’s Run. Technology has advanced to the stage that humans are now able to upload their consciousness to a cloud storage system where they can effectively take over the bodies of robots to carry out any physical tasks. Unfortunately, an authoritarian AI known as Methusaleh has been causing a stir and it is up to you to relieve the rogue AI from power. Having awoken as just a floating head with no idea of who you
