Mickey Mouse, is that you just?
Again at the beginning of the 12 months, the copyright for the unique model of Mickey Mouse (often known as “Steamboat Willie”) lastly expired, and a recreation known as Infestation 88 was introduced on the identical day, utilising the character as a part of its roster.
Now, we have noticed one other one! A recreation known as Rubber Hose Rampage quietly appeared on the Xbox Retailer just some days in the past, by which you play as Mickey Mouse (or “Steamboat Willie”) towards some evil AI chatbots. Sure, significantly.
“Within the close to future, Synthetic Intelligence (AI) chatbots, turn out to be sentient and slowly take management of the world’s nuclear weapons. 5 billion lives ended on August twenty ninth, 2027. The survivors of the nuclear hearth lived solely to face a brand new nightmare: the warfare towards the machines. The chatbots which management the machines, despatched two cyborgs again by means of time to 1928 disguised as cartoon mice. Their mission: to destroy the chief of the resistance, the captain of the riverboat, Steamboat Willie.
Rubber Hose Rampage is a basic 2D motion recreation crammed with 21 boss battles. Impressed by classical music and rubber hose animation from the Nineteen Twenties and Thirties.”
As you possibly can see from the trailer up above and screenshots under, the sport appears to have a good bit in frequent with Cuphead, though it actually would not look as polished. That is mirrored within the very low worth although, with Rubber Hose Rampage being made obtainable for simply £4.19 / $4.99 on the Xbox Retailer at launch.
You will not really discover this within the “New Video games” part of the Retailer, and we suppose that is as a result of it is just like what Xbox used to name a “Creators Collection” title, lacking assist for sure options similar to achievements. Nonetheless, it is positively playable on Xbox One, Xbox Sequence X, Xbox Sequence S and even PC in keeping with Microsoft!

This seems to be horrible…and likewise…extremely questionable when it comes to legality. I am guessing all of the characters used are in public area now?

Yeah, this seems to be atrocious. It's a rip-off of Cuphead and clearly not pretty much as good.

Appears to be like okay for the giggles. 😂

Appears to be like marvelous! Cuphead was all the time a rip-off of that period of cartoons anyway, so having "Steamboat Willie" and different time period genuine characters in a contemporary recreation, finances or in any other case, is totally sensible.

@GamingFan4Lyf
did you… learn the primary sentence of the article?

@RicebinBernacky I am not speaking about Steamboat Willie, I’m conscious of it hitting public area. There are different characters used as properly – like Betty Boop which solely sure iterations are in public area and others usually are not.
In case you watch the trailer, there are a ton of characters in there that make you scratch your head because the developer is unquestionably skirting a line.

Ha. Find it irresistible. Disgrace it's not happening the correct retailer.

@Gonzo_Me Wouldn't precisely say "marvelous" but it surely not less than seems to be prefer it's some enjoyable

If this had a strong finances & dev group this concept has potential.
