My Giants is a fast-paced, competitive action game where you collect Giants (monsters & robots) and bring them to EPIC BATTLES against other players online. Remember playing with neighborhood kids on the streets when you were young? That’s how we spent most of our time after school – meeting up with friends before sunset, and coming up with silly games to play together – imagining a monster invading our homes, pretending to be cops and robbers, or simply throwing rubbish at each other. It was simple and fun to run around and chase each other. And it’s probably the best social game we’ve ever played. We decided to recreate this experience of playing with neighborhood kids – interacting with other players in real-time, with various goals to achieve. A new take on action RTS. Some might call it DotA for kids, we’d like to think of it as a way for us to be kids again.
PAX! Last week was a big one – first time ever we showed a playable demo of My Giants to people outside of the team – better yet, we did it at PAX. With all the bugs and crashes and network problems, we managed to get the 2-on-2 game up-and-running and had a blast playing with everyone who came to our booth – kids and adults alike!
Check out some photos and with any luck, we’ll be at the next PAX again! :D Pepwuper.com
