SYDNEY — August 13, 2020 — Boomerang Fu, the frantic boomerang brawler starring adorable yet lethal food creatures from Cranky Watermelon, throws down on Nintendo Switch™, Xbox One and PC today.

Fight as tasty food wielding deadly boomerangs. Choose from 12 selectable superfoods like the delectable Donut and silly Sushi. Slice and dice as menacing morsels in hilarious one-hit one-kill combat where each round means a new level, keeping the party going. Learn the surprisingly simple controls in seconds, then master the art of the boomerang with advanced tricks and precision throws.

Snack attack across 30+ reactive arenas including cloudy temples, mountaintops dotted with portals, and storm-lit fields where the flash of lightning exposes foes. Dash out of danger and take advantage of the environment: sneak up on opponents by hiding under tall grass, smash them with lever-operated traps, and even chuck boomerangs through portals. Add power-ups to the mix and matches start to get really crazy.

Power-ups persist between rounds, so stack up to three of them to really stomp foes into puree. Scour the field for ridiculous power-ups such as multi-boomerangs, ice boomerangs, disguises and much more. Go on the offensive by combining the Exploding and Multi power-ups for sweeping, destructive explosions, or mix Dash Through Walls with Teleport Boomerang to have complete mastery of the map.

Launch introduces three game modes: Team Deathmatch, Free for All, and Golden Boomerang. Make friends out of food in Team Deathmatch, haphazardly hurl boomerangs in all directions in Free for All, or try to hold onto the Golden Boomerang for as long as possible while every other player tries to pry it from your cold, delicious hands.

Boomerang Fu’s light-hearted battles have room for up to six players locally on Nintendo Switch, Xbox One and PC. PC players can take advantage of Steam Remote Play for epic food fights against friends across the world. Practice against devious CPU opponents, or use them to help fill out teams. Their adjustable difficulty levels make it easy to set up nail-biting matches or casual skirmishes.

“Part food fight, part Hong Kong action cinema, Boomerang Fu takes a cute concept and makes it fun for endless hours,” said Paul Kopetko, founder of Cranky Watermelon. “Your parents probably told you not to play with your food, but now I’m very much encouraging you to do so.”

Boomerang Fu is available now on Nintendo Switch, Xbox One and PC via Steam in English, Simplified Chinese, Japanese, Korean, German, French, Spanish and Italian for $14.99 USD. Play locally with up to six players, or use Steam Remote Play Together on PC to play online (experience may vary based on connection and network quality).

SYDNEY — July 9, 2020 — Boomerang Fu, the frantic boomerang brawler starring adorable yet lethal food creatures from Cranky Watermelon, invites up to six local players to duke it out on Nintendo Switch, Xbox One and PC on August 13th 2020.

Select one of 12 unlockable food characters from the mighty Milk Carton to the awesome Avocado, then leave a delightful mess by tearing each other apart in fast-paced food fights. Learn the simple controls in minutes, then deftly dash away from danger and unleash a barrage of bladed boomerangs.

One hit means instant death. Master the basics, then learn advanced techniques including deflecting attacks, curving throws, and drawing the boomerang back across the map while playing defensively. Bank boomerangs around corners, off walls, activate traps or even toss them through teleportals for tricky feints. After acclimating to ordinary boomerangs, up the ante with stackable power-ups.

Power up boomerangs with flames, frost, or explosives to obliterate opponents, then take it a step further with telekinesis, multi boomerangs, or teleportation. Learn how each of the twelve power-ups work, find a spectacularly ridiculous combo and destroy the competition.

Practice the art of grocery-slaying through more than 30 deadly arenas inspired by Hong Kong action cinema, such as cloudy tranquil gardens, slippery bathhouses and ancient temples. Wreak havoc in these peaceful environments secretly filled with spike traps, crushing stones, and portals.

Create the perfect custom match with modifiers like win conditions, friendly fire, homing boomerangs to help new players and more. Add in formidable A.I. bots for solo practice or to fill out matches. Play Free-For-All matches to see who reigns supreme or form squads in Team Up mode. An additional asymmetrical mode tasks players with fighting for the possession of the Golden Boomerang, leading to glorious “one versus many” showdowns.

“Boomerang Fu combines everything I love: food, boomerangs, and Hong Kong action cinema,” said Paul Kopetko, founder of Cranky Watermelon. “Which food is best? Only razor-sharp boomerangs decide which veggie gets chopped and which dairy product is king.”

Boomerang Fu will be available on Nintendo Switch, Xbox One and PC via Steam in English, Simplified Chinese, Japanese, Korean, German, French, Spanish and Italian for $14.99 USD. Play locally with up to six players, or use Steam Remote Play Together on PC to play online (experience may vary based on connection and network quality).
