Squirrel with a Gun Brings a Weapon-Wielding Rodent to your Nature Walk on PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S Later This Year

Walnut Creek, Calif. (March 15, 2024) – Maximum Entertainment and Dee Dee Creations today revealed during The MIX’s Spring Games Showcase 2024 a new Squirrel with a Gun trailer that showcases the intricate lives of squirrels: finding nice trees to live in, foraging nuts to snack on, and absolutely decimating the humans that have done them wrong with an array of firearms. They also like collecting acorns. This chaotic little rodent will be making its home on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and PC later this year: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2067050/Squirrel_with_a_Gun/

Check out today’s Squirrel with a Gun trailer:

In Squirrel with a Gun, you’ll find yourself starting out as nothing but a rodent with a dream. However, once equipped with one of the many firearms squirrels so often encounter in nature, you’ll use your weapon to take on the agents that are hunting you down. You may be less than a foot tall, but you can wreak havoc with the best of them.

This squirrel has more than one trick, though. Need to make a quick escape? Fire off your weapon and use the recoil to propel yourself to safety. With seven different firearms to collect, RC cars to steal and mayhem to start, the world is your acorn in Squirrel with a Gun. Cause chaos, forage nuts, interrupt picnics, steal cake and more to prove you’re one rodent that should not be trifled with.

Squirrel with a Gun will be present at MIX’s on-site GDC press event Monday, March 18 from 8-11pm at Terra Gallery, 511 Harrison Street, San Francisco, CA.

Strategy Shooter Wild Bastards Adds PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch Releases to 2024’s Stash of Riches

New gameplay sets the stage for a galaxy-hopping getaway while debuting out-of-this-world weapons, characters and more

Walnut Creek, Calif. (March 15, 2024) — The intergalactic bandits shooting up the West in strategy shooter Wild Bastards will bring their hijinks to PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch later this year alongside the previously confirmed release on PC (https://store.steampowered.com/app/1660840/Wild_Bastards/). Publisher Maximum Entertainment and developer Blue Manchu just announced the expansion of their interstellar upcoming title in a new trailer featured in The MIX’s Spring Games Showcase 2024:

Today’s gameplay looks to the looming threat that has Wild Bastards’ misfit outlaws on the run as they test an arsenal of futuristic weaponry against devious extraterrestrial threats spanning multiple planets. The footage debuts two new characters, each brimming with eccentric bravado reminiscent of Wild Bastards’ full roster, along with weapons and never-before-shown areas. The antics of these antiheroes demonstrate Wild Bastards’ compelling blend of fluid FPS action with thoughtful management of the bandits; these decision-making moments are key to plotting the bandits’ course to their next incredible haul.

Wild Bastards finds its lawbreakers hunted and nearly eradicated by Jebediah Chaste, a ruthlessly puritanical magnate. After killing all but two of the Bastards, Jebediah’s final targets are miraculously saved by a mysterious, sentient spaceship known as The Drifter. The Bastards are fleeing an unwinnable standoff, exploring an ever-changing and lawless galaxy rife with precious weapons and spoils, as well as grisly fates, in a grand attempt to resurrect their compatriots while living to steal another day.

While working to demystify The Drifter’s intentions in saving them, amass a gang of 13 playable and uniquely talented criminals, managing the relationships between them and guiding their growth. Juggle injuries and feuds while plotting a path through the galaxy, exploring and fleecing planets and, of course, shooting anyone or anything who gets in the way. Prevailing through Wild Bastards’ campaign also unlocks a Challenge Mode which adds modifiers and a steadily ramping challenge to keep outlaws on their toes.

Wild Bastards will be present and playable at Day of the Devs 2024: San Francisco Edition on March 17th at The Midway, San Francisco, CA from 3-8pm and on the GDC show floor in the Day of the Devs station from March 18-22. The onsite demo will also be available at MIX’s GDC press event Monday, March 18th at Terra Gallery, San Francisco, CA from 8-11pm.

Face the Finicky Multiverse of Roguelike Platformer ‘Duck Paradox’ in Steam EA Today, New Demo to Launch at FGS 2024

Quacky Roguelike Precision Platformer Duck Paradox Reveals New Worlds in Early Access Today, 1.0 Release Coming Q3 2024

New publisher Midwest Games adds challenging platforming title to its growing debut roster 

Green Bay, WI – 15 March 2024 – Duck Paradox, the bouncing bullet precision platformer from developer Magic Games and publisher Midwest Games, looks to ignite challenge-seekers everywhere in Steam Early Access today for $9.99. The game is available now on PC via Steam Early Access with Q3 2024 targeted for its 1.0 version, featuring three full-fledged worlds filled with fast-paced fun. To be featured at the Future Games Show 2024, play the brand new free demo of Duck Paradox on Thursday, 21 March 2024!

Navigate the infinite domains of the multiverse as savvy scientist Dr. Paraducks in search of her beloved pet duck, lost in the throes of space-time thanks to a malfunctioning time machine. Tackle difficult-to-master trials, run after run, with the utmost quickness to earn powerful upgrades, save all of the ducks, and repair the tattered threads of reality.

Armed with a trusty ray gun and a can-do quackitude, face dangerous worlds teeming with corrupted pet imposters. Leap across perilous platforms, unleashing waves of bouncing bullets on swarms of feathered foes. Each ray gun blast offers a deadly risk: each miss ricochets off of walls, adding to Dr. Paraducks’ list of troubles. Aim and shoot strategically while dodging lethal hazards and pixelated pits of death, or start from scratch at the start of the world.

Slow down time for some breathing room while solving puzzles and engaging barricades. Procure lifesaving shield bubbles before setting up explosive traps to zap duck doppelgangers while corralling your duck to safety. Select between two randomized upgrades at the end of each level, experimenting with new builds with every reset. Pet enthusiasts will need to keep a level head amidst more than 20 increasingly difficult levels or unlock and test their resolve in the endless Survival mode.    

“We’re looking to build a dynamic roster at Midwest Games, and the endearing yet rage-worthy eccentricities of Duck Paradox were instantly captivating,” said Midwest Games CEO and Founder Ben Kvalo. “Magic Games has created a sensational title as their first release and we look forward to bringing it to a larger audience.” 

“As much as I have been ready to finish the development of Duck Paradox, something keeps bringing me back to make it bigger and better, as special as it can be. I was afraid I would spend years on this game.”, shared Diego Lenero, Director at Magic Games. “Through a partnership with Midwest Games, my vision for the game is finally possible. Beyond the resources provided, they have genuinely believed in the potential of ‘Duck Paradox’ – a game that’s designed to challenge players, but ultimately reward perseverance.”

Duck Paradox is available now on PC via Steam Early Access. To be featured at the Future Games Show 2024, play the brand new free demo launching on Thursday, 21 March 2024. The 1.0 version will launch worldwide in Q3 2024 with multiple localizations.
