- Jazzpunk gets Director s Cut and Flavour Nexus DLC - 19 June 2017
Comedy espionage caper Jazzpunk has had its entrails extracted, altered, and re-inserted into its codey cadaver. By that I mean it has become Jazzpunk: Director s Cut , gaining an extended local multiplayer mode and a ton of additional story/joke content not found in the original game , say developers Necrophone Games. There s also a new piece of DLC, Jazzpunk: Flavour Nexus , which inserts special agent Polyblank into a supermarket to discover a hidden flavour, newly invented by scientists. …

- Jazzpunk's Director's Cut goes live a day early (Updated) - 12 June 2017
Update: Surprise! The Jazzpunk Director's Cut came out a day early, and is thus available now on Steam , and at a 60 percent discount too—that means you can snag it for $6/£4/€6. Only until Saturday afternoon, though, so don't dawdle. The Flavour Nexus DLC is still set to go live tomorrow. Original story: Bizarro comedy adventure game Jazzpunk is getting a new edition and some DLC, three years after it launched on PC.  Jazzpunk appeared on PC back in 2014, but Necrophone Games wasn’t able to add everything it had envisioned into the game. Extra bits, including a cyberpunk sequence, were added in the PS4 Director’s Cut last year, which will be available on PC on June 16.  On top of the Director’s Cut, a slice of DLC, titled Flavour Nexus, will also be available. Despite the imminent release, Necrophone is keeping shtum about wha…

- Most Original Game 2014: Jazzpunk - 23 December 2014
Check out our game of the year awards 2014 page to find out how the awards were decided . Phil Savage: There s a moment in the first level that, for me, perfectly captures what makes Jazzpunk so original. It s an animation that plays as you climb through the window into the Russian embassy. You land in a roll, and a two-note musical fanfare announces your arrival. What s great about it isn t that it s a funny entrance, but that it s the only time you ll see it happen in the game. Game development, by necessity, values efficiency. Animations and assets need to be reusable. That s what makes Jazzpunk so essential. It s all about the random flourishes—the joy of discovering something new and unexpected. I played it with a constant sense of anticipation. Anything could be behind the next encounter, from a simple pun to a fully interactive minigame. Jazzpunk isn t just Most Original be…
- Teleglitch is free on Humble Bundle - 29 October 2014
Very good Quakelike roguelike Teleglitch: Die More Edition is currently free on Humble Bundle , the only price of entry being your email address (you can untick to subscribe from the Humble newsletter). That would be worthy of a news post all on its own, but it's accompanied by another great indie bundle (sorry, inDIE bundle—it's Halloween), which contains OlliOlli, Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet, and Tower of Guns at its base, pay-anything level. By beating the average, you also get Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs, four copies of Risk of Rain, and Jazzpunk, which we scored 92% back in February . More games will be added to the Beat the Average tier in the near future, but if you fork out $12 or more you'll get a copy of Shadowrun Returns (the original, not its improved, now standalone sequel) thrown in too. It's not clear how long Teleglitch will be available for free for, but the te…

- Kings of comedy: the flourishing art of interactive humour - 25 June 2014
Few games are designed to make you laugh. And among those that do, laughter is often a happy accident, the inadvertent by-product of a combination of systems that provoke moments of unintentional comedy. People laugh at videogames constantly, says former Irrational Games alumnus Jordan Thomas, who recently worked as creative consultant on South Park: The Stick of Truth. But largely it s because they re laughing at the clumsy and often absurd intersection between the designer s intent and their own. Thomas insists there s nothing necessarily wrong with that, but the distinction is clear: we re laughing at games, not with them. For comedy writer and director Graham Linehan, it s pretty low on his list of priorities when playing a game. For me it s like comedy in porn, he says. It s kind of beside the point. Valve writer Erik Wolpaw, who co-scripted Portal and its sequel, admits that he on…
