After working on this for 5 years, and 3 years full time, I couldn't be prouder to say that The Adventure Pals is out now for Desktop, XboxOne, PS4 and Nintendo Switch.
Story time:
In 2012 my friend Julian and I released a game called Super Adventure Pals on Newgrounds. The game seemed to really resonate with people, and I met so many cool people as a result of it. Soon afterwards we started work on a sequel. The result was a terrible flash game called Super Adventure Pals 2. We made the hard decision to scrap it and start again, to instead target desktop and console and wow am I glad we did! The result is The Adventure Pals. A 10-12 hour adventure through an imaginaton fueled land where you are on a quest to rescue your Papa from being turned into a hotdog, and you have the help of your best friend Sparkles the magical giraffe who lives in your back pack. Collect cupcakes, find stickers (including a newgrounds tank) and battle huge bosses across 5 worlds.
The game came out on Tuesday, and was the result of the efforts from a 2 man team with alot of help with some great friends along the way.
I'd love to talk to you more about the game, but if you did want to help out a couple dudes who made their start in game development right here on Newgrounds, that would mean the world.
