Estonian indie developer Robotic Laser Shark has launched a gameplay trailer for Grannies on Wheels, a celebration recreation the place you turn out to be a cute little grandma, hop behind the wheel of a monster truck, and battle for jars of jam.
The premise is easy, however splendidly whacky. Every participant begins with jars of jam, which function lives. If you happen to ram one other gran together with your truck, you possibly can knock the jars free and steal them. The target? Be the final nan standing.
The sport will help as much as 4 gamers on a shared display, with every match going down throughout arenas that function your typical physics-based destruction and terrain that modifications as automobiles ignore any semblance of visitors legislation. For solo adventurers, there’s additionally AI-controlled opponents which imply you possibly can go to battle with out the necessity for added grannies, too.
Alongside its fuel-guzzling, monster truck fight, Grannies on Wheels will embrace a choice of mini-games and typical gameplay occasion modifiers. These vary from reversing controls of different grannies, skewing digicam angles, and gaping black holes showing. If that is what the youngsters name “friendslop”, then depend me in.
The sport makes use of a clay-style visible presentation meant to make its characters, vans and environments resemble a hand-crafted toy set dropped at life by way of a toddler’s creativeness.
“We needed to create a celebration recreation that anybody can perceive inside seconds,” mentioned Robotic Laser Shark recreation designer Andri Allas. “You drive, you bounce, you hit your folks, and also you steal their jam. It’s a easy and utterly cheap conflict-resolution system.”
Properly Andri, I feel you’ve managed simply that. I can solely think about what Christmas on the Allas family was like again within the day.
Grannies on Wheels is deliberate for launch on Steam in 2027 and is obtainable to wishlist now. A precise launch date and value haven’t been introduced.
