Santa Ana, Calif.—May 6, 2016— Nicalis Inc., a publisher known for its work on games such as The Binding of Isaac, 1001 Spikes and Cave Story today announced a partnership with StarQuail Games to publish 2D action platformer Tiny Barbarian DX.

Tiny Barbarian DX is one Barbarian’s “Sword-‘em-Up” quest for vengeance. Inspired by heroic fiction classics, Tiny’s journey offers a musclebound medley of engaging 2D platforming and 16-bit inspired pixel art, complemented by a catchy chiptune soundtrack. The action is broken into four individual episodes—not unlike fantasy stories in pulp magazines—each boasting its own unique setting, enemies and music.

Features of Tiny Barbarian DX

●Fast and addictive 2D platforming: leap, grab, hang, ride and climb past a plethora of perilous platforms and pitfalls

●Varied swordplay: Flay enemies with savage swordplay and finish off foes by skillfully ending three-button combos with a Sword Dash, the Spinning Sword or a Ground Slam

●Unique locales: muscle through four distinct episodes, each spanning across various landscapes including a snake worshipping temple, the mysterious Ruins of Xanadu, an altitudinous Sinister Spire and beyond!

●Bad bosses: use Barbarian brutality, brains and dexterity against epic bosses. Boss battles will truly test players’ ability to master Tiny’s skills!

●Exclusive content: included with the game on top of the main episodes is also an additional bonus episode , The Domain of the Ice Queen!

Developed by StarQuail Games and published by Nicalis, Tiny Barbarian DX is currently in development for consoles.

Smash & Stomp Your Way To Bunny-Bashing Victory

San Francisco, CA, August 29^th 2016: Hold onto your hare and prepare for the bunnapocolypse with the release of Bunny Bash by DarkArts Studios, an action-packed online multiplayer death-match arena game with cute, adorable, yet dangerous bunnies… Available on PC, Mac and Linux via STEAM™, this Early Access download can be yours with 10% discount off its regular USD $15.99 price tag for a limited period of time. The objective of the game is to pick your bunny and enter levels of bunny blitzing mayhem. Take on your friends or meet new people as you demolish them into piles of bunny-goo.

Launch Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RXsKewRUnqg

The once wonderful Bunnytropolises filled with tranquil hopping past- times are no longer the sanctuary and place of bliss it used to be. Today, it has become a bunny’s worst nightmare, a terrible Bunnapocolypse, where mega-cute bunnies grind, smash and bash on each other’s fur in a state of bunny stomping frenzy. Come join the fun!

Bunny Bash offers 4 unique environmentally different worlds to play with seven challenging levels. Play quickly, or strategically, by selecting different gameplay modes, and prepare to stir up some fur. Your fluffy companion offers skin, fur and even “fluff” customizations, allowing you to tailor and perfect your very own bunny-stomping machine. Overcome obstacles and avoid traps as you hop yourself to victory against opponent players. Power-ups (and power-downs) can be life-savers during the game, and the trash-talk will make you cry with laughter.

Bunny Bash is a hysterical game full of humor and fun. It offers endless hours of multiplayer bunny-bashing fun with more levels, more worlds and more content promised by the developer until its official release with the support of its growing fan base and community. Download today!
