Pid's Butler Theme Music is Retro Amazing

Might & Delight's previous Pid trailer certainly wowed me with its fantastic music. As it turns out, the game's soundtrack comes from a group called Retro Family (who sound quite similar to The Minibosses). The latest video coming from Might & Delight eschews gameplay footage in favor of showing Retro Family in action. The song will accompany a battle with one of Pid's gigantic bosses, The Butler. Don't worry, we've got new screens of The Butler to show you as well.

We Chat with Dylan Barker from Cadenza About What Kickstarter Meant for Them

Indie-Ana Co-Op and The Dev Chat - Cadenza, Retrovirus, and Kickstarter

We're a bit late with this feature, but that doesn't make it any less pertinent. Last week we spoke with Dylan Barker, designer and semi-community manager for Cadenza Interactive, about what's going on with their latest game and their Kickstarter campaign (which is now closed). Dylan offers some interesting insight into their design process this time around and what Kickstarter means to them, and what happens if it fails (which it sadly did). So give it a listen!

Anomaly: Warzone Earth Coming to PSN with Exclusive Local Co-Op Mode

Anomaly: Warzone Earth has been dubbed a "Tower Offense" game. Players form an assault squad and try to defeat alien defense towers. Simple enough. The squad is not controlled directly, rather a player chooses unit paths on the battlefield. In the PC, Mac, and XBLA versions, you could control a commander who would help advancing units by distributing power-ups. Alas, these were all single player affairs.

Looks like the information was good, as we recently got word that patch 1.1 will indeed include Coco Nebulon and Derpl Zork, rounding out the Awesomenauts roster to 8 characters.

Earth Defense Force 4 is Happening

Game Informer recently spied a teaser website for Earth Defense Force 4. The site offers no details, so we don't know what platforms will carry the game, if it will come to the U.S., or if it even supports co-op. So why are we covering it? The last two games in the franchise were cheesy awesome fun, and they both support co-op, that's why.

Sink into Synesthesia, Become a Slave to the Beat

Pixeljunk 4AM Co-Op Review

Q-Games has quite the kaleidoscopic pedigree, touching on very different genres with each game they produce in the Pixeljunk series. Pixeljunk 4AM presents itself as a ‘Virtual Audio Canvas’ that is a musical toy using motion controls in an innovative way, allowing the user to create a soundscape of rhythmic synesthesia. 4AM does away with the traditional sense of mixing music but is built on the foundation of loops, beats, and samples.

Gearbox's Brothers in Arms: Furious 4 is "Evolving"

Gearbox's other four player cooperative title, Brothers in Arm: Furious 4, was notably absent from this year's E3. The studio's head honcho and co-op aficionado, Randy Pitchford, recently told CVG "the game has evolved." He wouldn't say what the game had evolved into... I'm hoping dinosaurs, because, well, WWII-era Nazi-eating T-Rex's would be a glorious thing. But that seems unlikely.
