Midnight City Announces Next Two Indie Titles
Edison, NJ – January 8, in the year of our Lord 2014
– Midnight City, the recently founded indie label of Majesco
Entertainment Company (NASDAQ: COOL), an innovative provider of
games for the mass market, is proud to announce its next batch
of indie games coming to market; generative racer Krautscape and
throwback brawler Double Dragon: Neon will both be coming to
Windows PC via Steam. Both titles are planned to launch in the
first quarter of 2014, each listed at a tasty $9.99.
Midnight City is excited to introduce Krautscape, the
revolutionary racer from Mario von Rickenbach, coming to Windows
PC via Steam early next year. Featuring hybrid bird-like flying
cars and color-soaked racetracks in the sky, Krautscape shows
off Rickenbach’s keenly unique perspective towards tactical
racing - by giving his cars wings. Players can jump off the
track and glide through open air to avoid obstacles and collect
special items. Driver-pilots then return to the track to gain
speed and score points to win, creating a tension and balance
all its own. The dynamic racetrack is generated real-time by the
lead vehicle; turn right and the track builds right, turn left
and it builds left – meaning no two races are ever entirely the
same. In addition to speed trials, different modes challenge
players to do more than just be the first to cross the finish
line. Combining a track that drivers can steer and cars that can
fly, Rickenbach has created a game that looks and plays like
nothing else.
Billy and Jimmy Lee are back in Double Dragon: Neon, a reboot of
the classic side-scrolling beat-em-up that is coming to Windows
PC via Steam. To mark the occasion, developer Abstraction has
gone back to the dojo and returned with an all-new online co-op
mode for the true Double Dragon experience players have been
waiting for. While taking down the Shadow Warriors and facing
off with Skullmageddon, co-op players can ‘high-five’ to share
health, ‘psych’ up their comrades for special moves and revive
their fallen partner. Keep an eye on your surroundings to
discover life-restoring sodas, peruse the shop for items and
find special mixtapes. The tapes can be stacked to pump up their
effects, while playing two tapes at once creates a fusion of
powers for devastating results!
Krautscape is rated E for Everyone, and Double Dragon: Neon is
rated T for Teen.
