GDC 09: Fat Princess is still gaining weight |
Ó
Smooth graphics, multiplayer for 32 people, bloody massacres, and best
of all, royalty that wouldn't say no to more cake. What's not to love
about Fat Princess? More news about the overeating princess comes in as the real monarchs behind the game put up a booth at the 2009 GDC.Loving the concept - a nice, cartoony RTS-like capture-the-flag multiplayer with five character classes to rescue or overfeed your damsel in dietary distress. We've already seen the characters in action at the CES in January, but for recap's sake, here they are again:
- Warrior: melee fighter - hits hard, takes a lot of punishment but has limited range
- Archer: ranged attack - doesn't hit as hard as the warrior, but can attack from afar
- Mage: magic attack - unloads spells, deals great damage but can't take much beating
- Priest: support - your army's healer, but it's just as frail and vulnerable as the mage
- Villagers: workforce - in Warcraft terms, this is your peon/wisp/acolyte/peasant
Even the menu item names have been cartoon-ized, which doesn't sound like much, but it's a cool thing to do anyway:
- Bragging Rights: the leaderboards
- Twiddly Knobs: options menu
- Why I'm Awesome: your player stats, which includes your kill count, wins, etc.
- Get Fabulous: you get to customize your units' skin tone, clothing, hair, even eye color
