Platypus Reclayed devs unleash demo for their next arcade party game today on Steam
Claymatic Games, the developer behind acclaimed shmup Platypus Reclayed, are thrilled to announce their next game as the clay-animated arena brawling online party game Knuckle Creek. Smack your way through a series of stages solo, or compete with your friends to become conqueror of the countryside with up to 8 friends in couch play or online battles!
Knuckle Creek takes players through dozens of varied stages as you brawl your way to victory. Play as Hot Dog Man fending off peckish crows, assume the role of the local vampire facing off against pitchfork-wielding townsfolk, or defend your title as champion boxer Apollo Crude as he faces the Karate Club. Ascend the leaderboards as you compete with friends for the fastest time across Knuckle Creek’s bevy of bite-sized challenges. Unlock hundreds of colourful cosmetic costumes by achieving star ratings across each of its 48+ stages. Take on Random and Endless Challenges for more friendly leaderboard competition and unlockable cosmetics. Mix and match hats, jackets, shoes and hair to create anyone from a badass bumpkin to a gutterpunk bruiser to a funky disco dude, all portrayed in glorious clay-animated detail! Gotten the hang of rumbling in the rustic mountains? Now take on your friends in PvP or team skirmishes across local and private online matches. Practice against bots or take them on as a team! Whether you’re facing a human or machine opponent, frenetic fisticuffs await in this propulsive roughneck rampage!
“At Claymatic Games we believe two things: one is that clay-animation is utterly charming. And the other that games should be fun right out of the gate,” said Anthony Flack, Lead Games Designer at Claymatic Games. “Knuckle Creek is a simple game to pick up, but difficult to master. Anyone can instantly hop into a solo stage and immediately have a good time, while competitive players can opt for a more cutthroat approach against their mates. Ultimately Knuckle Creek was intended as an ‘afterparty’ game for folks to wind down with, whether they’re alone or with friends.”
