Gori: Cuddly Carnage is out this summer, an adult-themed action platformer featuring a hero cat with a hoverboard that fights against mutated toys who destroyed the world.
Games Asylum: "Gori by name, gory by nature. Despite the titular star being a soft-centred ginger moggy, this hoverboard-based hack ‘n slasher cranks up the crassness. Said method of transport is equipped with swirling blades that turn adversaries into meaty chunks, and the dialogue is littered with f-bombs and other obscenities. The whole shebang is carried by a warped sense of humour, making for an experience that doesn’t come around often. It recalls the twilight years for the Xbox 360 and PS3, where games with violence and subjective humour – such as Lollipop Chainsaw, Anarchy Reigns, and Shadows of the Damned – appeared more frequently. Sunset Overdrive seemingly provides inspiration too, especially for the rail grinding elements."
One summer evening I was sat scrolling online store fronts. Far too hot and bothered to actually decide what to play I found window shopping far more relaxing. On that very evening a trailer burnt on to my retina, that very trailer was ‘Gori Cuddly Carnage' - Author: Andrew Kelsall for Game Hype UK
"Gori: Cuddly Carnage combines gory, swift combat with a saccharine presentation - however, it tries too hard to shock at times."
