Penny Arcade, the game - a preview
Wired has a sneak peak at the first computer game of Penny Arcade, Penny Arcade Adventures: On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness: Episode I. Besides the familiar Penny Arcade humor, this game is special in that it will be released in episodes, only available directly from the PA website.
Each episode will presumably be cheaper than a complete game, therefore lowering the threshold for buyers. However, it also puts a lot of pressure on each episode: make one bad episode, and you might lose some of your fans, resulting in lower sales.
I’m looking forward to the game, especially after seeing some of the screen shots: they capture the comic’s style perfectly. And it will probably be my only chance to ever see the Fruit Fucker in action…
