Cuphead Deluxe Vinyl Soundtrack Coming Later This Year

Along with getting a release date, Studio MDHR announced Cuphead will be getting a Deluxe Vinyl Soundtrack. Teaming up with iam8bit the soundtrack includes over 3 hours of 1930's style music. You can preorder the Vinyl soundtrack right here for a cool $100 dollars.

Iam8bit is proud to collaborate with Studio MDHR to bring you this period-specific thrill ride of jazz jollies and big band boisterousness - an outrageously rare treat comprised of four jam-packed records featuring some of the coolest and smoothest tunes you’ve ever grooved along to.

This is a spectacular sensation of a vinyl set, comprised of so much delicious, fully-orchestral decadence that we couldn’t resist creating a ridiculously complex custom companion package, stripped straight from the 1930s. Designer Jango Snow spared no detail in collaborating with the maniacally brilliant Studio MDHR to create this beautiful folio design, affectionately inspired by record sets almost a century old.

Cryptark Coming To PlayStation 4 June 20th

It was released on Steam almost two years ago, and then announced for PlayStation 4 a few days later, but now Alientrap's 2D Sci-fi Roguelike shooter Cryptark is coming to PlayStation 4 later this month on June 20th. Creative Director at Alientrap Jesse McGibney took to the PlayStation Blog to talk a little bit about the game:

In Cryptark, making money by scrapping spacecraft is the name of the game! You and your motley crew of mercenary privateers will have to blast into heavily defended alien derelicts, survive waves of cyber-skeleton attack drones, and surgically pick apart security systems with strategy and absurdly weaponized mech-suits (all while staying within budget, of course)!

Happy to announce after 2.5 years of dev, Cryptark launches June 20th on PS4 / Steam! https://t.co/4n7pnFvYsg pic.twitter.com/WbTWTXfp23

Snowman's Five-Year Anniversary

Snowman's five year anniversary was celebrated last month, and they've re-released their first game, Circles Memory Game, to celebrate.  Version 1.5 has better performance, and some bugs have been fixed.

“At its core, Circles is a digital take on a favourite physical toy from our childhood. It’s a memory challenge that asks you to pay attention to the glow of multicoloured rings, and repeat them in order with taps of your own.

For us, it’s more than that though. It’s an exploration of what can be done when physical play is unconstrained, and it represents the beginning of the aesthetic that’s guided all our projects.

As part of the update, we’ve spruced up performance, fixed a few lingering bugs, and optimized the game for all of Apple’s newest devices. We’ve also added Taptic Engine support. While it may sound like a subtle change, it’s been a total joy to feel as if we’re really pressing a button each time we tap out a solution.”

Their game Alto's Adventure (on the App Store and Google Play) is also on sale until the end of the day.

Runbow Pocket Release Date Announced - Also Working On New IP For Switch

It's been a while since we've heard about Runbow Pocket, but 13AM Games always let me know it's coming. Now we know what day it will be available.

In a post on Nintendo Life, Alex Rushdy, CEO and Creative Director at 13AM Games, announced that Runbow Pocket will come to June 20th in North America, and Europe for the new Nintendo 3DS, and new Nintendo 2DS. Alex even went into some of the trouble they had in porting their multiplayer Wii U game:

As part of our company culture, we don’t like keeping our fans in the dark as to why a game has been delayed or changed in some way since reveal, so I’d like to answer some of the questions that you guys might have about the game. It was a very difficult process to squeeze a large Wii U game into the New 3DS, especially when the engine it is built in is not our own. Being a pilot project for Unity New 3DS meant we had to face a cavalcade of technical difficulties, creating a new networking system, creating an e-commerce plug-in, figuring out how to maximize performance with significantly smaller CPU, GPU and memory compared to Wii U, and reorganizing all the UI and UX to work on the lower resolution dual screens. 

Runbow Pocket has had a long road to New 3DS, but now it has a release date. Check out all of the details in our exclusive reveal - http://www.nintendolife.com/news/2017/05/exclusive_runbow_pocket_gets_new_3ds_release_date_as_13am_games_teases_new_switch_project Check out our full site ■ http://www.nintendolife.com Like us on Facebook ■ https://www.facebook.com/nintendolife Follow us on Twitter ■ https://www.twitter.com/nintendolife

Alex also mentioned some contests they are running on their Twitter, so check out the full Nintendo Life article for more.  

We also get a tease at 13AM Games next project, which will be a single player action game on Switch that is also "weird", and distinctly "13AM". With E3 a few weeks ago, maybe we'll find out more, but for now we'll have to sit tight and wait. 

Will you be picking up Runbow Pocket in June?
