Dunkadillo Swings Onto Platforms This September
Fans of quirky indie games, get ready for a new treat! Thomas K. Young, the creative mind behind the beloved comedic arcade game Dadish, has announced his latest project: Dunkadillo. This vibrant new platformer is set to release on September 9th, promising a unique and bouncy adventure.
The game introduces players to Dill, an adorable armadillo with an unusual talent. When his best friend, Pickle, gets snatched by a mysterious tentacled creature, Dill sets out on a daring rescue mission. His special ability? He can curl into a perfectly orange, bouncy ball, allowing him to spring through levels and literally dunk himself into basketball hoops, all in the name of friendship!
Players will navigate through 50 colorful and challenging levels. Along the way, you'll need to master Dill's rolling and bouncing mechanics to overcome obstacles and outsmart peculiar foes. Expect to dodge exploding bees, avoid scatterbrained porcupines, and outwit overly friendly frogs. For collectors, hidden character cards featuring cameos from Young's previous games like Dadish, Super Fowlst, and Be Brave, Barb will be scattered throughout the levels, adding an extra layer of discovery.
Thomas K. Young shared his enthusiasm for the project, stating, "I had so much fun making this game, especially coming up with the bad guys with my four-year-old son, Roddy. Dunking Dill the Dunkadillo into the hoop feels really good and cool. But please don't try to dunk real armadillos into a basket – they won't like it." This personal touch highlights the charming and playful spirit of the game.
Dunkadillo is packed with features for players to enjoy:
- 50 diverse platforming levels
- 10 unlockable characters
- A collection of hidden character cards
- 5 challenging boss battles
- Gamepad support for a smoother experience
- A "banging soundtrack" to keep you grooving
- The mysterious appearance of a giant rabbit
The game will be available across multiple platforms, launching on PC via Steam, Nintendo Switch, and mobile devices (iOS and Android). PC and Nintendo Switch players can expect to purchase Dunkadillo for $9.99, while mobile users will be able to enjoy the game for free, supported by in-game advertisements. Please note that Russian language support is not planned for the game's release.
With its unique premise, charming characters, and signature comedic flair, Dunkadillo looks set to be another delightful addition to Thomas K. Young's portfolio. Mark your calendars for September 9th and get ready to roll, bounce, and dunk your way to victory!
