In case you missed the news on Destructoid yesterday, the next video game I'm working on has been announced. That game? Bionic Chainsaw Pogo Gorilla! This is a game character I've had sawing away at my brain for years, and thanks to the brave souls at Adult Swim who understand that such a creature needs to be unleashed upon the world, I can finally make this game a reality. I'm working with my good chums Pox (who worked with me on Abobo's Big Adventure) and Jacob (who worked with me on Santa Fu, MonsterTime, etc.) on this original new title, and it will be released by Adult Swim sometime this year. Destructoid has some exclusive screenshots from the game in their article, and here's an additional for you to check out:
Really excited about this project. It's going to have long levels, loads of crazy enemies, huge boss fights, all kinds of surprises, and as you can probably imagine... lots and lots of blood. BLOOOOOOD!!! Be sure to follow me on Twitter and check out the new Bionic Chainsaw Pogo Gorilla Facebook page to stay posted on all the latest updates about the game. More to come!

This reminds me of Pogo the Monkey from GTA. Was that intentional?

Looks awesome. Can we expect to see any of your past or future games on home/portable consoles? This looks perfect for 3DS or XBLA.

The title begs the question.... Is it a bionic gorilla with chainsaws, or a regular gorilla with bionic chainsaws? Enquiring minds want to know.

I'm so tired of cartoon gorillas being brown-and-tan. Kudos making him blue-and-gray. Much better.. and suitable for a bionic goriller.
This looks pretty awesome and I can't wait

FireballDragon - Nopers, can't say it was, as I've never played through a full GTA game. Any time I even tried doing a mission, I ended up screwing around and crashing my car into things. :P
some dude - Definitely hoping to port it to other platforms eventually, so we'll see how it goes.
HowardC - Oh he's no regular gorilla. He be bionic. He needs that extra strength to be able to wield dual chainsaw arms and move around constantly on a pogo stick - not to mention sustain bullet wounds and other injuries.
ColdFusion - Yeah, we wanted him to be nice and bright. Didn't want him to look like one of Donkey Kong's long lost siblings. Definitely happy with how he looks.
Thanks for the comments guys, and feel free to ask any other questions and I'll do my best to answer what I can.

I cant imagine what he's like when he's not killing people , I'm not even sure if that possible.
