'''''Deadly Creatures''''' is an upcoming [[video game]] of the [[Action game|action]] [[Thriller (genre)|thriller]] genre for the [[Wii]] video game console. It is developed by [[Rainbow Studios]] and published by [[THQ]].<ref>[http://wii.ign.com/articles/852/852222p1.html IGN: Introducing Deadly Creatures]</ref> |
|||
==Overview== |
|||
''Deadly Creatures'' allows players to play as a [[scorpion]] and a [[tarantula]] and engage in brutal combat against other [[insect]]s and [[arachnid]]s. The game uses motion-controlled combat, and has a dark story. Content of the game revealed so far resembles a 3D brawler, but lead designer Jordan Itkowitz has stated that there will be more to the game than this. |
|||
The game's concept was inspired when Itkowitz had a dream about using the [[Wii Remote]] to control a snake, slithering through the grass and striking a mouse. In brainstorming, the idea of the snake and other creatures were left on the cutting room floor, leaving the scorpion and tarantula. |
|||
==Gameplay== |
|||
Previews have revealed that the two creatures have different playing styles, with the scorpion's levels featuring more action-orientated gameplay, while the tarantula is more stealth orientated, with less linear levels.<ref>[http://wii.ign.com/articles/863/863974p1.html IGN: Hands-on Deadly Creatures]</ref> The Wii Remote and Nunchuck are used for both movement and attacks, with motion controls incorporated for special attacks and finishing moves, while the tarantula also utilizes the pointer function to shoot webs.<ref name=Gamesradar>[http://www.gamesradar.com/wii/deadly-creatures/preview/deadly-creatures-first-look/a-20080402154621510077/g-200802159321743700 5 Gamesradar: Deadly creatures - first look]</ref> New abilities are also gained as the player progresses through the game. |
|||
Along with dispatching common insects such as [[Armadillidiidae|pill bug]]s, [[Cricket (insect)|cricket]]s, [[wolf spider]]s, [[dung beetle]]s and [[hornet]]s, most of which can be devoured to regain health, the player also faces [[Boss (video games)|bosses]] including a [[Gila Monster]], a [[rattlesnake]] and eventually humans.<ref name=Gamesradar/> The clashes between the insects are described as similar to monster movies, with a similar impact to battles in ''[[King Kong]]'' and ''[[Jurassic Park]]'' albeit on a smaller scale. |
|||
== Plot == |
|||
Little has been revealed about the plot, except that the creatures will cross paths multiple times with two humans, voiced by [[Billy Bob Thornton]] and [[Dennis Hopper]]<ref name="IGN Voice Talent Reveal">[http://wii.ign.com/dor/objects/14235413/deadly-creatures/videos/deadlycreatures_horror_tsr_l.html Deadly Creatures Nintendo Wii Video - Gameplay Trailer - Voice Talent Reveal]</ref>, who are looking for a location in the desert where something is buried. |
