Multiwinia Screens Feature Lo-fi Warfare

July 7, 2008 1:10 PM

Publisher Introversion has released a new set of screenshots from Multiwinia: Survival of the Flattest (PC, 360), a multiplayer variant of its 2005 PC strategy game Darwinia.

In addition to a standalone PC release, Multiwinia is also slated to hit the Xbox 360 as part of Darwinia+, a downloadable XBLA package which includes the original game as well as the new multiplayer functionality.

Introversion has not yet announced a release date for either platform.

I'm tired of getting excited about this. I love Introversion's stuff but every time I hear about Multiwinia I'm like "Oh no way they're still developing that?" and then I forget about it for another year.

  same here :(
  
  Enjoyed the heck out of Darwinia, but it's mostly a distant memory now.

    I wrote Introversion for clarification on the release date. I'm pretty sure it'll be within the next few months or so -- no later than the holidays, I'd wager. But hey, it's a small team, takes awhile to churn stuff out when you're doing garage development.

      Oh I don't blame them for the extended development time, no doubt it was a gargantuan task to retool their single player boutique game into something that could be played with multiple people AND be fun.
      
      It's just a bit unfortunate it has taken so long. I'm sure most people (including myself) who enjoyed Darwinia will check it out once the game does finally hit retail.
