Here is a foolish puppet boxing sport you by no me...

I’ve not performed a single boxing sport exterior of Wii Sports activities this century, however that might be about to vary. Summer Game Fest Live introduced us the reveal of Felt That: Boxing, which stars puppet pugilists.

This mission from the appropriately named Sans Strings Studio and Seth Inexperienced’s animation firm, Stoopid Buddy Stoodios, is billed as “a comedic, over-the-top boxing sport set in a world the place the allure of furry puppets collides with the fury of boxing.” The clip is structured like a trailer for an underdog sports activities film and it’s simply pleasant.

The snippets of gameplay counsel there shall be coaching minigames that embrace dodging slices of burnt toast {that a} coach hurls at your puppet (who is called Fuzz-E) and, uh, plunging a bathroom. In keeping with the outline on the YouTube video, the builders are aiming to make the “boxing mechanics are deliberately ridiculous, favoring enjoyable over precision, with [puppet] limbs flailing about with an insane sense of chaos.” Beautiful.

This trailer was instantly essentially the most fascinating factor throughout SGF Reside as much as that time. Felt That: Boxing doesn’t but have a launch window, however you possibly can wishlist it on Steam now, like I simply did.
