I mean, the game is called Fluffy Horde. You know right now if this game for you. The 8-bit loveliness, the psychotic swarms of bunnies, the "misunderstood" bad guy shaman? I'm not going to lie, I also stuck around for the digital dubstepping ear attack. There are bunny giants that puke more bunnies, big roundy guys with ice cream cone unicorn horns, and an ending that's far more ominous than hundreds of other games' ominous endings.
Look, 8-bit 2D sidescrollers are a dime a dozen, I know. But this one looks like a standout. It hybridizes real-time strategy and tower defense, reminding me a bit of Kingdom. There's a cast of five spunky characters: a mech boy with a glowing pickaxe, a selfie-smiling Playboy bunny, a Dig Dug-looking knight wearing his shorts on the outside, a hairy legged furry except it's a carrot suit, and a Link-alike for the Zelda set. And there's just enough pseudo-sexual imagery to awaken the Freud in anyone.
Fluffy Horde is out November 7 on PC.
