Penny Arcade has joined Hothead Games to produce a game starring Pennya Arcades Comic.
The creators of online ultracomic Penny Arcade have joined forces with
Hothead Games, an independent and experienced video game developer, to
collaboratively create video games based on the Penny Arcade comic.
"We're really excited to be working with Hothead Games on our first
electronic adventure," said writer Jerry Holkins, his clawed feet
resting atop a huge slab of granite. "From the moment we laid eyes on
them, it was clear they had the technical and creative chops to execute
our grim vision. Now that we have pooled our strengths, our dark work
may truly begin." Holkins then paused to eat a rat whole.
The first game, entitled Penny Arcade Adventures: On the Rain-Slick
Precipice of Darkness, will be a comic adventure game initially
available for Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux, followed by a version for
next-generation consoles. The game will be available by digital
download, delivered in episodic format with new installments of the
adventure coming out several times a year.
