Mindware Studios today announced their new title Voodoo Nights, which promises to be a stylized action extravaganza for the PC and also the Xbox 360.
Jack and Samuel, two loose cannon cops, are on the trail of a deadly gang who know how to handle guns as well as insidious Voodoo magic. The key to their success is being a perfectly coordinated and synchronized team. Gameplay is based on the fast, dynamic, teamwork of two characters. When one runs for shelter, the other gives covering fire. When Jack levitates an enemy out from cover with a Voodoo spell, his partner can shoot the enemy down. Voodoo Nights is fast, furious and visually impressive.
Voodoo Nights is a 'Buddy Game' concep and the two heroes offering the synergy well known from TV and movies brought to the video game for the first time. At the core of gameplay is the fast coordination of two characters. Players directly control one character, they can switch between the two at any time, and can assign simple commands to the second character - such as 'go here', 'attack him', or 'cover me'.
The controls are simple - just one point and click with context results and picture in picture greatly supports two-player gameplay, as a player can always see what both characters are looking at. When a situation is really challenging, a player can use the DeadTime mode, which helps him to control his actions in slow motion mode.
The game promises epic gunfights bring to mind Hollywood movies as the environment is destructible, with enemies utilizing the latest rag-doll physics. Big explosions are accentuated by camera and postproduction effects.
More news - as we get it.
