Capybara Games Releases New Super Time Force Footage; Head Explodes From Insanity

During our time spent at E3 we were lucky enough to stumble upon Super Time Force hiding in the corner of the expo. While our time with the game was limited, it instantly dawned on us how damn ridiculous the game was going to be. To put it simply, the game never slows down; you fight a boss, die, revert to a different hero, fight the boss again, die, revert to a different hero, and continue this trend until there's so many explosions on the screen you hardly know what to do other than shoot. 

The pure insanity of it had us a bit overwhelmed at times, but the time spent opened up a world of possibilities that no other game could pull off in such a fast and fluid experience. Super Time Force is set to hit XBLA later this year.

Let's Check Out: Megabyte Punch

For this week's second Let's Check Out, we took a look at Reptiles Game's Megabye Punch, a side-scrolling beat 'em up with a hell of a lot of depth. Created by a 3-person Dutch team, Megabyte Punch takes the fluid combat of Super Smash Brothers and throws it into a side scrolling campaign that Masahiro Sakurai would be jealous of. While the game is still in development, the group has created a fluid experience with combat that grows deeper the farther you get.

 

On it's surface, Megabyte Punch is exactly how I described it, Super Smash Brothers meets a solid side-scrolling campaign, but the more you play the more begins to unravel. Using an inventory system, players can attach different parts to their character, adding new abilities and stat boosts that allows players to create a play style they prefer. With a planned multiplayer, I can already see a lot of  time being spent creating the perfect class and class counter. For only $7.50 (50% of it's normal price) you can gain access to the games beta and support this awesome indie title. Head over to Reptile Game's website to pre-order and nominate for Steam's Greenlight.
