Remaster coming to PC next year
Mere days ago, I hoped out loud that 2015 would become theyear of clayfor videogames, and now there’s an announcement for a remaster ofClayFighter. Shame it won’t be out until 2016.
Interplay and Drip Drop Games (who?) are promising “the best of all previousClayFightertitles” as well as “remastered audio and high resolution visuals.” Also, curiously, new mechanics: double jumping, air dashing, counters, and reversals. Claytality moves return, though perhaps they shouldn’t, and there will be 20+ characters (including Earthworm Jim and Boogerman) and stages.
My memories of this series are strongly linked to Blockbuster rentals and, truth be told, I think I ended up preferring the box art to the actual games. I was more of aPrimal Rageguy back then.
Several years back, there was going to be an updatedClayFighter 63 1/3for Wii and DSi but the gamewas canceled. We’ll see if this remaster has better luck.
