Zombie Cow Studios announces 'Revenge of the Balloon-Headed Mexican'
Following the huge critical success of indie adventure Time Gentlemen, Please!,
which is now available through Steam, Zombie Cow Studios is proud to announce
the first bite-sized episode in the ongoing saga of loveably-haphazard geeks Dan
and Ben.
You'll be joining Dan and Ben in a bit of a pickle, and once again it's up to
you to help sort out their mess with a unique and charming blend of
puzzle-solving nonsense...
"Things are going to be a little different for the guys this time around,"
waffled Dan Marshall, head honcho at Zombie Cow Studios, "which'll lead to some
interesting new scenarios and puzzles. For example, Dan and Ben can now be split
up, allowing the player to flip between the two as and when they choose. So
we've got these two separate branches going on within the first episode - which
makes it feel very different to the previous games."
"We've also made a decision to move away from the overtly parodic nature of the
first games - we've done that, now... so instead we're going to be letting Dan
and Ben run riot with the stabilisers off. That said, I'm sure we won't be able
to resist a crafty reference or two..."
The new episodes take place after the events of Time Gentlemen, Please! but
aren't a direct sequel - "People will be able to jump straight into Revenge of
the Balloon-Headed Mexican without worrying about what's happened in previous
installments. We're shooting for these being truly episodic in size and scope -
we're looking at it being about the same sort of length as a TV show, depending
on player skill."
"Before you get too excited, we still can't afford voice acting, so the episodes
will continue to be read-only until some reckless fool goes and buys 100,000
copies of Time Gentlemen, Please!"
One last thing: "It should be made clear that it's not some sort of clever
allegory or metaphor - our antagonist genuinely does have a balloon for a head."
