Quantcast



This latest trailer for Twisted Pixel's Comic Jumper is kind of, well, it's kind of amazing. Nick Chester and I find the game to be pretty funny, but I know there are a lot of cynics and otherwise-hard-to-please individuals in the audience. Perhaps this video will do it for you?

Just so we're clear what it is I'm referring to here, Captain Smiley uses a woman to surf down a roof, and -- during the manga-inspired portion of the game -- you apparently get to battle a floating, real-life kid's head while riding a unicorn. YES.

Silver Age more reminds me of cartoons like Johnny Quest.

I'm all about this.

There are only two extra 'Splosion Man levels. Or so I hear. But, honestly, who cares! The game certainly looks to stand well on its own, and the pedigree of Twisted Pixel speaks for itself.

Not sure about the mish mash of gameplay, but the variety of art styles on display is interesting at least.

Twisted Pixel has more than proven themselves with their previous efforts. They could have not released any trailers and I'd be excited, but this does look pretty rad.

I'm all about Twisted Pixel. They've taken Rare's spot in my heart for straight up fun games. Plus extra Splosion Man levels makes me even more excited.
