LET’S GET READY TO TUMBLE! CONSOLE MINI GAME OUT NOW!
Aug 30, 2016
Break blocks and bring your foes low! Tumble is the second mini game we’ve released for Console Edition – a frantic competitive clash in which players destroy the very floor beneath their enemies’ feet, sending them plummeting to their doom.
Sound familiar? It’s inspired by community favourite: Spleef! We wanted to bring that experience to console and, as with Battle, streamline the experience so players don’t have to worry about re-setting maps between matches or even keeping score.
Oh, and it’s available as a free update today! Freeeeeeeeeeee!
There are two variants of the game to choose from: one which lets players launch snowballs, the other equipping combatants with shovels. Each bout consists of a best of three, on a series of semi-randomised maps, each with several layers of differing materials and hazards. Do you duke it out at the top, or tactically drop a level, blasting your opponent’s perch from beneath? Take care not to get glued to slime blocks or trip over TNT!
Anyway, it’s smashing fun.
Oh! And console owners can also get their mitts on the latest map pack for our first mini game – Battle! There are three thrilling new maps within: the colossal Castle, the incredible Shipyard and the terrifying Invasion! It’s available for $2.99 from your console’s store!
Have another Tumble screenshot for good measure:
Get out there and get cracking!
Cheerio!
