Stagehand

It’s called Stagehand. It’s the new game from Big Bucket—my main man Matt Comi and yours truly, the intercontinental couple who brought you The Incident. It’s something we call a reverse platformer: a run’n’jump game where you control everything BUT the protagonist. It’s out today.

The idea for Stagehand was formed back at XOXO 2012, a conference where we were demoing our then-unreleased game Space Age. Five years later, we actually made our idea—how often does THAT happen, am I right? Stagehand is a spiritual successor to The Incident; you’ll notice some familiar faces are back. It’s a fast, think-on-your feet game. 

We were able to blackmail/strongarm our pal Cabel Sasser into doing the music for the game yet again, and the result is… well, you have to hear it to believe it. Cabel, we truly love you.

Go play Stagehand on your iPhone/iPad/Apple Watch if you’ve hacked it like I’ve seen people do on YouTube. Click to download. Swipe on.
