- Ms. Splosion Man coming to PC? - 5 July 2011
Word reaches us from RPS that Twisted Pixel’s upcoming Xbox Live title, Ms. Splosion Man may be on its way to PC. RPS say that it appeared very briefly as a listing on Steam, but was swiftly pulled and replaced with the less explosive “ValveTestApp105420.” Ms. Splosion Man is a platformer in which you get around by blowing yourself up. Nearby enemies are eradicated by the explosions and the percussive force of each blast can propel you to otherwise unreachable ledges. The follow up to Splosion Man will now let you fire your exploding character out of exploding cannons to maximise the amount of explosions you'll be causing per second. Unlike the first game, there will be levels set outside of the laboratory in which Splosion Man and Ms. Splosion Man were created. Twisted Pixel’s first release, The Maw, was released on the PC along with Microsoft’s big black box, since then their games ha…
- Twisted Pixel's Ms. Splosion Man Coming Fall 2011 - 2 December 2010
Twisted Pixel Games doesn't have much to add to the news that their next game will apparently be Ms. Splosion Man. Here's their tongue-in-cheek press release in all of its silly glory. AUSTIN, TX – December 2, 2010 – Twisted Pixel Games was pleased to announce today that their subsidiary, Big Science, has captured the Splosion Man and guaranteed the safety of all humankind. Many remember the terrifying events of July 2009: Splosion Man's horrifying rampage through Big Science laboratories that meated hundreds of scientists and caused untold damage to their underground laboratories. Eye witnesses reported widespread destruction and a staggering number of t-bones and fillets left in his wake. Today that ends, with Twisted Pixel releasing footage of the successful capture of the renegade experiment. The scientists speak with new-found confidence about their success. Says Dr. Wilson, "Even…
- Xbox Live Gets Double Impact, Half Price Deals In April - 6 April 2010
Microsoft has laid out a good portion of the Xbox Live Marketplace release schedule for April, ensuring that no one will buy a copy of The Maw or Borderlands: The Zombie Island of Dr. Ned this week. That's because both of those downloadable goodies will drop to half price later this month, priced at just 400 Microsoft Points for a limited time. The Maw for Xbox Live Arcade goes on sale April 12 with the Borderlands add-on The Zombie Island of Dr. Ned getting the half-off treatment one week later on April 19. Left 4 Dead expansion pack Crash Course, which adds one mini-mission and a handful of new achievements to Valve's zombie apocalypse shooter, also drops to 320 Microsoft Points on April 12. If you'd like to pay full price for something in April, consider Final Fight: Double Impact. The Xbox Live Arcade release, which features the classic side-scrolling beat 'em up Final Fight and the…
