โ€œThe BEST dual stick shooter for Android yetโ€

– Justin Diaz (Android Headlines)

Ridiculous Action-Adventure โ€œTowelfight 2: The Monocle of Destinyโ€ Announced for iOS, Android

 

ST. LOUISย โ€“ Feb. 26, 2013ย โ€“ย Indie studioย Butterscotch Shenanigansโ€™ย first major release,ย Towelfight 2: The Monocle of Destiny, drops players into a feud between gods, equipped with nothing but their wits and a powerful, enchanted monocle that summons exploding animals.

An action-adventure game of epic proportions,ย Towelfight 2ย will beard-slap iOS and Android gamers alike with copious bloodplosions, procedurally-generated levels, insane boss fights, 14 power-ups, and 40 unique weapons enhanced by 80 augmentations. Players can dispatch myriad foes with a cornucopia of laser-blasting bees, speed-boosting unicorns, spiraling praying mantises, whales in heat, and ultra-defensive turtles, among others.

โ€œWith Towelfight 2 we wanted to make a face-meltingly deep experience that justย happenedย to be on mobile, rather than make a โ€˜mobile gameโ€™,โ€ said Butterscotch co-founders (and brothers) Seth and Sam Coster. โ€œWe looked back on the handheld games we grew up with โ€“ย Pokรฉmon,ย Zelda,ย Mega Man, etc — and noticed that the mobile space is the perfect platform for a resurgence of these kinds of rich, thoughtful games. Mobile games donโ€™t have to be casual, and we think thereโ€™s a critical mass of gamers chomping at the bit to get something more substantial under their thumbs.ย Towelfight 2ย will satiate that hunger.โ€

Towelfight 2ย is a spiritual successor toย Towel Fight of the Gods, Butterscotchโ€™s entry in 2012โ€™s Global Game Jam. One ofย Towelfight 2โ€™s key features is itsย shot rotation system, which allows players to mix and match a variety of weapon types into a single clip, then unleash them on enemies in a cyclonic flurry of insanity.

 

Features

  • Unique Shot Rotation systemย — Build and customize a rotating clip of โ€˜Jectiles to burn, poison, freeze, electrocute, pinch, and explode your enemies.
  • 40 unique weapons with 80 augmentationsย — Dozens of weaponized animals to launch from your glorious monocle.
  • 14 insane power-upsย โ€“ Mix and match up to three Relics of the Gods, fill them up with the souls of your enemies, and unleash their fury!
  • 10 personality-laden bossesย โ€“ So personable you will shed a single, manly tear after defeating each one of them.
  • Procedurally generated worldย โ€“ Thousands of rooms with plenty of things to kill. There is no end to the madness.
  • 5 Unique Environmentsย — Including the cute, lovable Forest and the squishy, disturbing Nightmare.
  • 4 Monocles with different firing modesย – Want to shoot two โ€˜Jectiles at a time, or do you prefer a โ€œspray and prayโ€ approach? No matter, weโ€™ve got the monocle for you!
  • 4-8 hour campaignย — Plus, for you completionists, dozens more hours of exploration and enough power grabbing to last a lifetime.
  • Featuring gods, a grub, and a pugย โ€“ A narrative for the ages from the warped minds at Butterscotch Shenanigans.
  • Dungeons for the truly hardcoreย — The most powerful items in the game can only be found in the depths of Fornโ€™s dungeons. You must earn them, andย you will die trying.
  • The Arena of the Godsย — Wager coins to face increasingly more challenging armies. The more you wager, the bigger the payoff!

Towelfight 2: The Monocle of Destiny, ordinarily priced at $2.99,ย will be available for a short-term promotional price of $0.99 for the first three days after launch.

About Butterscotch Shenanigans
Butterscotch Shenanigans is a two-man indie studio based in St. Louis and powered by brothers Seth and Sam Coster. The studio was forged in the hellish fires of game jams, bestowing upon the brothers a game development secret sauce — a blend of grit and rapid iteration, with a garnish of mouth-punchingly-tasty personality meat chunks.

What does all this mean? The Costers make games faster than you can make a batch oโ€™ flapjacks.

Before starting Butterscotch, Seth and Sam worked at Simutronics onย One Epic Knight. Seth programmed like a beast in Unity while Sam did psychological experiments for QA and became the voice of the Epic Knight.
