Katamari Damacy’s Creator on Wattam’s Insane Initial Concept
Wattam, the latest project from Katamari Damacy and Noby Noby Boy designer Keita Takahashi, has been a long time coming. Many many years at this point. In that time, it’s shifted publishers from Sony to Annapurna Interactive, its team has been broken down and then rebuilt and it’s switched game engines, but one thing hasn’t changed – it’s still a game about creating colourful explosions that send its bizarre cast of anthropomorphic creatures into gales of laughter.
Of course, I wouldn’t dare call them “creatures” in front of Takahashi. To him, they may be walking, talking flowers, rocks, toilets, poos and blocks of land, but they’re all “people”. Wattam, after all, is a metaphor for the way that people from different countries can find commonalities. We may not all speak the same language, or have a similar culture, but there are things that can bring us together as people. And in the case of Wattam, as mentioned, it’s setting off the bomb that perpetually sits under the hat of the game’s Mayor character.
Bee Simulator Is Like For Honor With Butt Swords
With a name like Bee Simulator, you might expect to see a tiny, airborne version of something like Goat Simulator - a wacky, physics-based comedy game that, while entertaining, does very little to actually simulate the day-to-day reality of Bovidae Capra. However, you would be very much mistaken.
Bee Simulator, from development team Varsav Games, focuses on what the real lives and struggles of the American wild bee. Or, at least, as close as they can get while still making an entertaining game - and one that's far more educational than you might expect.
"Goats are, like, doing nothing interesting. They eat grass," laughs Lukasz Rosiński, Varsav's founder and CEO. "And bees are doing many, many interesting things. There's a whole part

Zombie Army 4: Dead War Is More Than A Sniper Elite Spin-Off
I have always enjoyed the Zombie Army series in spite of it feeling like a bit of a perfunctory afterthought to Sniper Elite. Zombie Army 4: Dead War adds a host of arcadey abilities and perks that help to distinguish it in this respect, but still retains the series’ trademark slow-mo kills, straightforward gunplay, and lovable B-movie narrative. My time with an early build at a behind-closed-doors E3 appointment left me chuckling and optimistic.
I kicked off the demo by taking control of series’ front man Karl Fairburne in a WW2-era Milan train station. Before I knew it, a runaway passenger car teeming with undead Nazis barreled into the station and I found myself retreading familiar ground by slow-mo sniping zombies in the head, and other less ethical places.
Former Epic Production Director Would Have Cancelled Fortnite
In an interview with Game Informer, former Epic Games production director Rod Fergusson says that if he had stayed at Epic, he “would have cancelled Fortnite.”
Fortnite: Save the World, a sort of horde mode defense game that featured the same building mechanics, was the original incarnation of the now massively popular franchse. It wasn’t until developers implemented a battle royale mode a couple months later in August 2017 that Fortnite began to explode in popularity, earning the most annual revenue of any game in history last year.
