4.5+ Million Players Now Own 3 out of 10, the Animated Playable Sitcom. Season Finale Debuts Today

4.5+ Million Players Now Own 3 out of 10, the Animated Playable Sitcom. Season Finale Debuts Today

All Season One Episodes Free on Epic Games Store

BOSTON, MA — Sept. 3, 2020 — 3 out of 10, the episodic playable sitcom from Terrible Posture Games about life at the world’s worst game development studio, puts on a new face today with the season finale, Episode 5 – “The Rig is Up!” exclusively on the Epic Games Store for PC. Owned by 4.5+ million players, Season One is free on the Epic Games Store.

Ever wake up and just not feel like yourself? You look in the mirror and just see an empty void where your face once sat. No, seriously—Pylon’s face is gone. When a rigging issue leaves only his eyes afloat above his torso, Pylon needs the help of Midge and Kevin to cure his transparent affliction. Journey forth to a land of enchantment and mystery (Canada) to find a solution for Pylon’s plight, but stay alert! Shovelworks’ losing streak of bad review scores may not be entirely their fault…

In this action-packed season finale, 3 out of 10’s minigames pay homage to video game history and cover both sides of the northern border. As Pylon, escape a makeshift office arena by dodging Viper’s attacks. Brave the mysterious sewer tunnels connecting New England and Canada in a nostalgic top-down dungeon crawler where secret chambers and elusive spider moose guard the path to the Great White North. Reconstruct Pylon’s face in a physics-based, high-score-racking tabletop retro gaming experience. (It’s pinball.)

Was it a video game? Was it a show? In its debut season, 3 out of 10 defied characterization at every turn, rewriting the rules of good taste expectations with dozens of game genres and a serialized story released in five installments over five concurrent weeks. Yet plenty of mysteries remain. Will the Shovelworks crew of well-meaning ne’er-do-wells ever finish Surfing with Sharks? In its final form, will their game be worthy of a review score higher than 3 out of 10? Seriously, Pylon, what’s with the ketchup?

“At the start of this journey, we saw a space in games for an easy-to-digest weekly story,” said Joe Mirabello, creative director for Terrible Posture Games. “It’s been a once-in-a-lifetime pleasure to share this weird experiment and our love of making games with literally millions of people. Well, we hope it’s not once-in-a-lifetime. Please play our game so we can make more!”

3 out of 10’s complete first season is now available for free exclusively on the Epic Games Store. For satirical yucks—and to find out if they ever get to make another season—hang with Terrible Posture Games on Twitter, Facebook, Discord, and the official website.

About Terrible Posture Games

A‘dough’rable Party Game Bake ‘n Switch Preheats the Ovens for Nintendo Switch on September, 10th!

The Buns Are Running Amok in New ‘Bun Madness’ Trailer Released Today!

Kuala Lumpur, MY— 3rd September, 2020 — Ready to get baked?? Violently cute couch co-op party game, Bake ‘n Switch is coming to Nintendo Switch on 10th September! Accompanying this highly anticipated news, Streamline have also released a new Bun Madness trailer today to introduce the various Bun breeds to players! Bake ‘n Switch will be available on the Nintendo eShop for $29.99.

Play as one of the six Bakers – Ginger, Rosemary, Thyme, Parsley, Sage or Salt – and embark on a bun-baking extravaganza through 100 levels of sweet and savory party action! Team up with friends in co-op or battle against them as foes in PvP or Team v Team in local and online multiplayer to merge, punch and bake the adorable Buns before time runs out. 

And now about those Buns…

Tropic Toaster’s Lil’ Bun starts out as a roly-poly doughball and chomps its way into a Big Bun – give these little guys some space, and they’ll do your delicious work for you! The Doughdoughs may not be the smartest buns in the batch, but while they scare easily, they are easy to herd. Surround them and watch them flock toward the oven and hop right in! While the Doughdoughs and Lil’ Buns may be easier to manage, the Doughrillas have music in their feet and pound their mighty hands to their own jungle beat!

In Serradurra, the sweet “dessert” world, you’ll encounter a whole new bunch of delectably devious Buns. Armadoughs are tough on the outside, but… actually, just tough all the way through! These curly croissants act as giant bowling balls to smash through flavors and barriers, while the sneaky Bunboa burrows its body in the sand and launches surprise attacks to constrict your enemies. Fluff Foxes are fiendishly cute – fast, with a stunning tailspin. You’ll need to work as a team to corner these sly confections and corral them into the oven. And finally, the Batlava, whose super sweet – and sharp – tooth sucks the flavor right off those Buns in no time flat!

LG PRESENTS “LIFE’S GOOD FROM HOME” VISION FOR THE FUTURE OF HOME LIVING

LG PRESENTS “LIFE’S GOOD FROM HOME” VISION FOR THE FUTURE OF HOME LIVING

Showcasing next-generation innovations for the home and beyond at IFA 2020

BERLIN, Sep. 3, 2020 — At IFA 2020, LG Electronics (LG) presented a new consumer experience unlike any previous IFA show. LG CTO Dr. I.P. Park took to the stage in hologram form to talk about Life’s Good from Home, the company’s vision for the future, which maximises three core home values of care, convenience and entertainment.

“These unprecedented times have made us more uncertain about the future,” remarked Dr. Park. “LG believes this presents a unique opportunity to make real change in the world by realising a new potential for the home. As a leading lifestyle innovator, we’ve doubled-down on our commitment to develop new and improved products and services that provide a good life for consumers the world over.”

LG ThinQ, the company’s AI platform, continues to evolve and innovate to create new services, solutions and business models to lead change. “LG ThinQ is the beating heart of our life-enriching innovative experiences,” Dr. Park said when demonstrating how the updated LG ThinQ app delivers a user-centric experience that extends from customer support to purchasing supplies. Using the app, the AI-based Proactive Customer Care (PCC) can analyse and report back the operational status of appliances and even provide maintenance or repair advice.

LG continuously innovates for the home, investing in wide ranging technologies as it pursues improving everyday life. LG’s CLOi line of robots can provide a way to deliver services in restaurants and hospitals whilst adhering to social distancing regulations. For example, since July 2020, LG CLOi ServeBots have been deployed in commercial locations throughout Korea. LG has set its sights on expanding the robot ecosystem through its CLOi platform, focusing on automated driving, situation analysis, and movement control by reducing the time it takes to develop these products, which is ultimately a driving force for the industry’s growth. Dr. Park highlighted how CLOi 2.0 could serve as an efficient substitute for human interaction, compatible with the open source Robot Operating System (ROS) 2.

LG is also developing technology for remote healthcare management as part of its digital transformation efforts. “Through AI, we can easily and more precisely monitor the health of consumers 24/7,” said Dr. Park. “Recently in Korea we successfully administered a pilot project with Seoul National University in using AI to improve the monitoring and care of patients with chronic conditions.”

Dr. Kim Kyung-ho, executive vice president of the LG’s Business Solutions Europe, followed Dr. Park on stage to introduce LG ThinQ Home. An actual living space and complete home solution in the South Korean city of Pangyo known as Korea’s Silicon Valley, ThinQ Home is a real demonstration of LG’s Life’s Good from Home vision, a future-look into residences. The demonstration is designed to showcase a more convenient lifestyle through the company’s latest appliances and IT technologies.

In Korea, Dr. Park guided the IFA audience through LG ThinQ Home and demonstrated Home Concierge, a smart “mirror” that allows easy control by monitoring appliances and home energy usage through an energy panel. Connected to the home’s electric car charging station, the panel lets homeowners charge and monitor their electric car remotely.

In addition to its holographic media event, LG’s videos illustrate its vision for accelerating everyday innovation, one featuring a special guest appearance by K-pop star Henry Lau touring the LG ThinQ Home. This video and more can be enjoyed on the LG Global YouTube channel (www.youtube.com/GlobalLG) while LG’s virtual exhibition (http://Exhibition.LG.com) provides a vivid experience of LG’s innovative products and services at IFA 2020.
