The thing is that’s not the only game Gamecock is planning to spew. Teaming with Auran and Firefly Studios, Gamecock will also be releasing Fury (Auran), a massively multiplayer “player vs. player” game for the PC this 2007 holiday season, and Hero (Firefly Studios), a comical dungeon romp for next-gen consoles and the PC on spring 2009.
Handhelds are also set to see some juicy offerings from Gamecock. Developed by Red Fly Studios, Mushroom Men – a game about a civil war between men and their mushrooms, er, I mean mushroom like men – is slated for a 2008 release for next-gen and handheld platforms. Crackpot Entertainment‘s offering to handhelds is a game entitled Insecticide, and it should see a 2007 holiday season release.
A recent press release says that the goal of Gamecock Media Group is to bring originality and humor back into video gaming. The new independent game publisher is comprised of former executives of Gathering of Developers (G.O.D.), and promises to favor only the most innovative and original video game developers in the industry.
Here’s a video teaser of Mushroom Men as spotted on GameTrailers, just in case you guys want to have something to judge Gamecock games with. We’ll let you guys decide if Gamecock’s offerings are sticky or not.
