You may have heard that Skullgirls had a remarkably successful crowd-funding campaign recently. The next step is for Lab Zero Games to actually get that money so it can start development on all the precious goodies that fans funded, and it's hit a snag on that front.
When Skullgirls started a crowd-funding campaign to create a new character, it hoped to make $150,000. It hit that goal in a single day, necessitating the formation of some stretch goals, and the campaign has now ended at a whopping $829,829. That means you're not just getting one new character, but five, and a handful of other extras as well.
The fighting game community is known to be passionate, but punching men in the face is often overshadowed by shooting men in the face. In case you needed a reminder that yes, they're out there and, goodness yes, they're loyal to games, look at how Skullgirls crowdfunded $150,000 in less than one day to create a new DLC character.
A PC port of Skullgirls was announced all the way back in May of last year, and since then we've heard nary a peep about the game. Autumn Games has now announced that it's preparing to start work on the port, thanks to a publishing arrangement with Marvelous AQL.
Skullgirls is getting a cheeky "Slightly Different Edition" patch tomorrow on the PlayStation 3. It boasts a pretty large series of new features and modes, new balance adjustments, and a few bug fixes to boot.
Indie fighting game Skullgirls is heading to PC after all. Autumn Games and Reverge Labs announced today that it will hit PC via various digital distribution services later this year, complete with a few enhancements.
Skullgirls in many ways pays homage to classic 2D fighters. Its art style and overall presentation show reverence for the heyday when numerous titles competed for the fighting game crown. Likewise, its fighting mechanics often borrow from the heroes of the genre. Once the final take is complete, however, Reverge Labs firmly establishes its new fighter as more than merely an ardent admirer of the craft. Skullgirls stakes its claim as a new star in the making.
Gears of War developer Epic games offered a couple of revelations over the weekend at PAX East. Designer Cliffy B told GameSpot in an interview that an unannounced game titled Gears of War: Exile had been cancelled, and that that was all he had to say on the matter. During an earlier panel at the expo he also promised that the studio is now working on a new PC game. The Netflix app for the Xbox 360 received an update today that promises more vivid colors and deeper blacks along with a few other nice-to-have improvements. And it's a digital download sort of week for new releases with Fez, Skullgirls, and Tribes: Ascend leading the pack.
Check out today's episode of Shacknews Daily.
Revenge Labs' gorgeous hand-drawn 2D fighting game has just been dated. Skullgirls will be available on the PlayStation Store on April 10th, and Xbox Live Arcade on April 11th for $14.99 (1200 Microsoft Points).
For the uninitiated, Skullgirls promises "the most frames of animation per character of any fighting game." And although a downloadable game, it promises the standard features of a retail fighting game, such as online multiplayer, story modes, and training modes.
Reverge Labs' upcoming 2D fighter, Skullgirls, won't release in 2011, as expected. The developer is now citing a release "early in the first quarter of 2012." Reverge attributes the delay, in part, to its "gameplay first development approach," and asserts that it'll be using the extra time to polish up the game.
