PERTH, Australia – March 4, 2020 – Baron: Fur is Gonna Fly, the frenzied aerial shooter from Dogmelon Games, takes to the skies today on Nintendo Switch, Xbox One and Steam.

It’s 1917 and the age of aviation is in full flight. The glory of soaring through the air has attracted patriotic animals to the world of aeronautics. Jump into the pilot seat as a cocky duck, a surprisingly compact bear, and six other anthropomorphized critters. Do a barrel a roll, loop-the-loop, and gun down the competition in dogfights to command the skies.

Choose one of four biplanes inspired by early 20th century designs, each with their own stats, including handling, shields, and speed. Developed by an aircraft engineer, Baron’s chaotic aerial battles are designed to strike a balance between nuanced physics and over-the-top fun. Every plane comes equipped with a wild-spraying Gatling gun and one of 13 special weapons, such as the gravity sucking Black Hole, giant crushing Anvils, and repulsive Stinky Fish.

Up to eight player showdowns take place on stylized landscapes across a variety of single and multiplayer modes. It’s every beast for themselves in free-for-all, or duke it out in team battles to determine who’s the flyest squad around. Master how to fly and craft the perfect loadout in Training mode, then grab a friend to fend off a flock of invaders in Sheep Attack.

“Baron: Fur is Gonna Fly takes aviation combat sims to new heights with dogfights featuring actual dogs,” said Anthony Wiese, Co-Developer, Dogmelon Games. “We’re excited to share our wild alternate world now that it’s available for PC, Nintendo Switch, and Xbox One.”

Baron: Fur is Gonna Fly is available for $19.99 USD on Steam, Nintendo Switch and Xbox One. It supports English, Chinese and Japanese on PC, with more to come post-launch.

Sweden, February 26th, 2020 – UKIYO Publishing and independent game developer Nexile are thrilled to announce that their critically acclaimed and comically punishing platformer Jump King is heading to PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch in 2020.

Jump King is a tough as nails, tongue-in-cheek platforming game that challenges players to ascend a colossal tower to rescue the mythical “Smoking Hot Babe” at the top. In this Tactical Leaping Adventure, players must set themselves in the desired position, charge their jump, aim, then let gravity do its thing as they make each nerve-wracking leap. Should they be the right and true king of jumping, they shall land on a ledge. Otherwise… well, it could be a long drop down.

Every point of progress is saved along the way… but so is every setback. Jumps that cause you little grief one time may become the bane of your existence upon encountering them again. It’s worth experimenting with different routes and tactics though, as Jump King features multiple paths to success. All this is wrapped up in a nostalgic pixel art aesthetic, full of colorful characters and evocative locales.

Make no mistake, Jump King is an extraordinarily difficult game, yet it can be relished by anyone looking for a tough but fair challenge. It’s sadistic enough to drive a seasoned gamer to tears, yet accessible enough due to its simple controls and mechanics, that anyone can overcome its challenges – perseverance is key! Do you have what it takes to be the one true Jump King?

“Jump King was made to make you look silly. It makes jumping, something often taken for granted in games, into the sole challenge of the game!,” said Felix Wahlström of Nexile. “It looks quite stupid – why are people having trouble jumping with simple three-button controls? But once you give it a try you understand why and get sucked into the engaging gameloop! It is a modern idea in a captivating and nostalgic package that we think will hit the spot for console gamers”.

“Jump King has caused our team so much pain and anguish that we lost our sanity and decided we must introduce the rest of the world to this hell we have wrought,” said Paul Hann of UKIYO Publishing. “Its conclusion still eludes me, but one day I know I will conquer it. One day…”
