Battletoads info and some offscreen gameplay - High difficulty, music by David Wise, Lead animator of Earthworm Jim
- Thread starter Theorry
- Start date
I guess "lead animator" means Michael Francis Dietz? They're credited as the animation director on EJ, at least.

The legend you ordered has arrived, sir.
Dlala Studios is making it, none of their previous games are particularly major unfortunately.
Looks great! :) Also a nice surprise during the E3 press conference, i didnt expect at all to see a new Battletoads game being announced there.
But will there be online co-op? I am not 6 anymore. I am nearly 30 and have a job and families and my friends and I do not have time to gather very often for game nights(and most of my closest gaming friends have moved away). I want to play this with co-op, but I do not want to wait just to play a bit of it once in a blue moon.
Wasn't sold on the trailer but this looks great, and sounds like they're not making it easy just for the sake of popularity - on the contrary, they might try and bank on it like Cuphead which was famous for that too, among other things.
One thing I notice from that video is the big fist type attacks don't have the same weight as the older games. In the older ones those moves would have a bit of hit stop and the character would kind of skip forward a bit (even fly off the ground a bit) from the momentum, but I'm not seeing that here.
David Wise and the Earthworm Jim lead animator? Back to being hyped again.

Gameplay looks great and the combat actually looks really satisfying. Plus the artstyle is great. This game is going to be amazing.
Welp, so no online co-op :'[
Still very excited, but that's a bummer.
Yea, I saw that, too. https://twitter.com/DavidJHousden
David Wise lists Battletoads, too.
Hopefully we can get clarification on this soon.

Some impressions of the game
Besides the bike level does any of the other later game stuff show up in the game? or is this game mostly just focusing on the beatem up part?
I wanna play again before I offer more concrete thoughts. There's something about the collision system in this current build that is rubbing me the wrong way, but that might be because I need to get the hang of juggling and attacking from mid-air, which I found really tricky to pull off in my first hands-on session.
I'm sorry to say that but I know the guy from the source tweet (not Klobrille, NilOggier), I was moderating him in a French forum, he's a delusional Xbox fan that could tell lies every time he gets the chance to hype up an Xbox game.
Trust me, he's not a reliable source, I'm waiting for a better one.

I keep saying it, but highlight of e3 for me. Looks like a lot of fun, and im glad its still difficult as that was a concern for me. Personally, i like the artstyle, but each to their own.
