Indie developers The Game Bakers are revealing their next game: <em>Combo Crew<\/em>, a pocket-sized beat \u2019em up that combines innovative touch gameplay with good old-fashioned brawling. This action-packed game from the team behind the critically acclaimed <em>SQUIDS <\/em>and <em>SQUIDS Wild West<\/em> will release simultaneously for iOS and Android devices this Spring. In <em>Combo Crew<\/em>, a trio of heroes face off against hordes of enemies, fighting their way to the top of the tower where they\u2019re being held hostage. When one hero falls, another can take over to climb the floors and advance the crew toward freedom. Inspired by the best of the arcade-era brawlers, <em>Combo Crew<\/em> puts a modern spin on classic beat \u2019em up gameplay with quick play sessions, solo and co-op game modes, a tower level structure, and an \u201cendless\u201d mode. And it\u2019s the first mobile brawler with cross-platform, asynchronous gameplay, so friends can rescue and revive each other from KO no matter what device they\u2019re using. \u201cWith <em>Combo Crew<\/em>, we wanted to bring back the spirit of the old console beat \u2019em ups\u2014the ones you used to play on the couch with your buddies\u2014in a way that makes sense on modern mobile platforms,\u201d says Emeric Thoa, The Game Bakers\u2019 creative director. \u201cGames like <em>Street Fighter<\/em> and <em>Final Fight<\/em> require a D-pad controller, and that just doesn\u2019t make sense for touch devices. So we challenged ourselves to make a brawler with really good, intuitive touch controls. And we\u2019re pretty sure we\u2019ve pulled it off!\u201d <em>Combo Crew<\/em>\u2019s intuitive interface combines highly responsive controls with exciting, tactile gameplay. Swipe to attack, tap to counter, and use a two-finger swipe to unleash combo streaks unique to your character\u2019s martial arts skills. When your super combo meter is full, you can trigger special moves, racking up massive high scores in the process! See how it all works in the first gameplay video: <a href=\"http:\/\/youtu.be\/-20DW6gTK6E\">http:\/\/youtu.be\/-20DW6gTK6E<\/a>. Upon its release, <em>Combo Crew<\/em> will be available for download from the App Store and Google Play. Leading up to launch day, more details will be revealed at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/ComboCrew\">http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/ComboCrew<\/a> and @TheGameBakers. <strong>About The Game Bakers<\/strong> The Game Bakers is an independent video game studio based in Lyon and Montpellier, France.
