Penny Arcade Game Goes Gold

| 1 May 2008 17:05

The multi-platform Penny Arcade video game has gone gold.

Penny Arcade Adventures: On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness, Episode One, developed by Hothead Games, will be released digitally "later this quarter" according to a press release.

The distributor will be Greenhouse, and the game will be compatible with Windows, Macintosh and Linux, as well Xbox 360's Live Arcade.

The title is described as "an RPG-adventure game set in the comic-book-meets-pulp-horror-meets-H.P. Lovecraft deranged 1920s universe of New Arcadia" where the doubtlessly keen duo of Gabe and Tycho will set out to solve crimes.

The artwork, characters, story and dialogue are the product of the real-life duo behind the characters, Mike "Gabe" Krahulik and Jerry "Tycho" Holkins.

The first episode will cost $20 or 1600 MS Points on Xbox Live Arcade. The game is rated M.
