Double Fine are now making another game you’ll probably love

Look, I’m going to be honest with you here: I don’t really understand what’s going on inside this game’s code,” comments Double Fine boss person Tim Schafer when talking about their newly announced game Hack n’ Slash. “I believe it contains ‘algorithms.’ But I know what’s going on inside my heart when I play it. And that is joy.

This sounds like nonsense to us, and we love nonsense, so we’ll probably love Hack n’ Slash.

Speaking less nonsense, project lead Brandon Dillon said more words. “Instead of swords, arrows and bombs, you discover exploits, trainers and cracks. The puzzle dungeons will be designed to teach you progressively more sophisticated hacking, cheating and reverse-engineering tools. And they won’t be toys. They’ll actually be used to hack the running game.”

Here is an image of the game with its name emblazoned on it incase you forgot the name of the game. This is helpful. More publishers should do this as journalism is hard.

So, to us, this means the game kind of sounds like Link  from Zelda crossed with Chloe from 24. That sounds good for starters, so we might buy it when it is released in 2014 on PC, Mac and something called Linux.

According to our sources [the Internet], Double Fine is now working on at least 5 games at one time – that we know about.  Our sources also tells us we are going to die from that slight itchy feeling in our big toe. Oh no!
