Slap Happy Sam's Stage Show comes to SCEA Thursday codenamegames Codename: The first of our games drops on THURSDAY, we just got the word! @theoddgentlemen's "Slap Happy Sam's Stage Show" comes to SCEA PS Home! ___ More information about this game here: http://www.ifc.com/news/2010/10/indiecade-2010-playstation-giv.php ___ The studio that made this year's acclaimed "The Misadventures of P.B. Winterbottom" will be rolling out "Slaphappy Sam's Stage Show" in December. "SSSS" offers up to six players the chance to compete in a rock, paper, scissors-style face-off. On a vaudeville stage that will be located on Home's central plaza, you and others can secretly choose from one of three moves that can all potentially cancel each other out. Attack lets you punch slap or drop a piano on opponents, Block swats away Attacks and Reflect bounces Attack moves onto other players. However, if you choose Reflect when no one's attacking you, you'll take a lot of damage. Each player starts with 20 hit points and the goal is to be the last one left standing. The game's a simple yet sticky bit of risk-vs.-reward game design that makes your Home avatar feel like more than a glorified paper doll. The Odd Gentleman's Paul Bellezza said, "We wanted to use Home avatars and basically abuse them." The subversive element doesn't end when you get off the "Slaphappy" stage, either. You'll be able to buy abuse items (like that piano) and keep them in your apartment. "Slaphappy" will offer custom emotes, too, so that you can unique animations to communicate with. "Slaphappy Sam's Stage Show" will be out in December and will be free for the first month. ___
Yeah it does look like another pay to play game although it will be free for the first month. I'm curious if the emotes are things that we will purchase as well as whether or not they will be usable outside of the game itself.
that is a good question joanna, i hope we they are free and we can use them outside the game but i have a feeling that we will alteast have to pay for them. but it looks like a fun game and it will be nice and funny to see our avis do something different for a change lol
