November 5, 2018 – Platform after platform, the wurm continues to feast – it requires more subjects. The wurm has broken its bonds and has set its sights on the outside world. On November 22, Nidhogg 2 launches on Nintendo Switch, offering players the chance to throw themselves into the warm embrace of the wurm’s maw wherever they please.

LOS ANGELES, California, November 1, 2018 — Flying Tiger Entertainment presents Johnny Turbo’s Arcade: Night Slashers, the horror-themed beat ’em up by Data East.

The world is overrun by werewolves, vampires and the walking dead. Humanity has little hope of surviving. Monsters intend to take over the world, killing any humans that stand in their way. Unless, of course, they can turn the humans into terrifying beasts themselves.

Night Slashers features seven stages of endless horror action. Destroy mutants at the hospital only to face the Mad Scientist that created them. Wander through a haunted forest filled with werewolves. Even stop a fearsome vampire from feeding on the living.

After fighting waves of zombies, mummies and the Grim Reaper, it’s time to infiltrate the fortress of the evil King Zarutz. Can you destroy the portals of darkness as the fire of the underworld threatens to consume you? Or will you perish in the face of your enemies?

Night Slashers also features hilarious bonus games to give you a break from battling monsters. Anyone up for a friendly game of Whack-a-Zombie or Undead Bowling? With the Real Arcade Feel, Night Slashers is the best spooky side-scroller of the ’90s.

Night Slashers is launching on November 8th, 2018, for $7.99 in North America. Pre­-order today for $6.95!

St. Louis, MO – Nov. 1, 2018 – Crashlands, the crafting-adventure with RPG elements and more than 500,000 players, breaks orbit and lands on Nintendo Switch Nov. 8. Butterscotch Shenanigans will debut co-op on Nintendo’s platform.

Flux’s day began like any intergalactic trucker’s: hurtlin’ through the stars with space-coffee in hand, ready to bring packages of joy to various worlds. Then some jerk named Hewgodooko teleported in, wrecked her ship in search of useful tech, and caused Flux and her robot assistant Juicebox to crash-land (wink wink) on Woanope.

Big baddies put the “nope” in Woanope, but Flux can carve out her own space to live while she prepares to get her tech back from Hewgodooko. Collect resources around the charming-yet-dangerous planet to build tools, structures, and weapons on a daring quest to save the entire galaxy…or just deliver your packages. For the first time you can bring a friend along; couch co-op lets your buddy play as Juicebox, helping with both combat and harvesting.

Crafting, taming creatures, and building a home becomes a meditative, chilled-out experience thanks to Crashlands’ infinite auto-sorted inventory. Erecting walls is as simple as finger-painting. Want some fancy walls and floors there? Done. A stable for new alien friends? Easy. Butterscotch Shenanigans even included muzak for maximum relaxation.

Woanope’s inhabitants are not the type to unwind, so Flux will need arms. Craft swords, hammers, axes, and armor, then augment them with trinkets to find hidden combos. Ever wanted to set an enemy on fire with a flamethrower while berserking with an axe, causing them to leave trails of fire on the ground, damaging other foes? That’s Crashlands for ya. Dancing the furious waltz of death means recognizing each enemy’s custom patterns and avoiding telegraphed attacks.

Flux’s trip to Woanope is an adventure across three huge biomes containing a 40+ hour Story Mode, NPCs, tons of sidequests, and big nasty bosses – all in a whimsical hand-drawn style. There is even Creative and Hardcore Mode for those who like to change-up their experience. It’s also cross-play with saves from the PC and mobile versions via Butterscotch Shenanigan’s Rumpus system. Oh, and it was developed by a trio of brothers in response to a cancer diagnosis. What’s not to love?

“Crashlands was therapeutic for me and my brothers to make while I was kicking cancer’s butt,” said Sam Coster, co-founder, Butterscotch Shenanigans “It’s a wonderfully wacky portal into our minds, and with the upcoming debut of co-op on Switch, we hope it brings your friends and family as much joy as it does our own.”

Crashlands comes to Nintendo Switch Nov. 8 for $14.99 / €14.99 on the Nintendo eShop. Pre-orders begin today at 10 AM PT. The game is currently available now in English and Simplified Chinese on iOS and Android for $6.99 and on Steam for $14.99 / €14.99.
