A portion of a Gosokkyu interview with Umihara Kawase creators Toshinobu Kondo and Kiyoshi Sakai...

G: I was surprised to see a new Umihara Kawase game announced after all these years. What made you decide to reunite and make a new Umihara game?

Kondo: Working on the DS port was a big part of it, I think. Sakai had previously helped out a little on Studio Saizensen games, but it was after the DS port that we really started talking about doing a new Umihara Kawase game.

Sakai: We originally had planned a small project, a port of the original game which would be included as bonus content on some other release. It was our publisher Agatsuma’s idea to make a brand new entry in the series.

G: The name “Sayonara Umihara Kawase” caused some initial concern, especially internationally—people were worried that the series was going to end before they’d played a single game! Can you explain the significance of the title, Sayonara Umihara Kawase?

Sakai: Considering the history of the series, it wouldn’t be strange if this were the last game. We also wanted to attract older fans of the series with that title. Whether this actually will be the last Umihara Kawase game or not, is still undecided.

Kondo: It depends on how much the fans support us, in other words. (laughs)

G: Fans have long shared their Umihara speedruns online, so the new online leaderboards seem like a natural addition. Are there any plans for further online features, perhaps via DLC?

Kondo: I won’t say it will never happen, but I think it would be difficult. It depends on Agatsuma Entertainment.

Games Shows Are The Worst Place To Play Games

There are only two things that zombies love: delicious, moist brains, and the lure of pop music. If Thriller wasn't proof enough, Sega's most recent DLC addition for blood-soaked keyboard primer Typing of the Dead: Overkill certainly cements the idea.

The "Dancing With The Dead" lexicon transforms the phrases that players are tasked with typing into popular song lyrics. Sega is being coy on which songs it has lifted words from, but the publisher's announcement this morning includes references to groups like House of Pain, Will Smith, The Clash and probably a few others that we're not picking up on.

As with earlier DLC releases for Typing of the Dead: Overkill, the Dancing With The Dead lexicon bears a $3 price tag. It's currently available on Steam to satisfy all of your oddly mundane fantasies of battling walking corpses armed only with keen office skills. [Image: Sega]

Star Wars denied, creativity permitted: a crucial moment in LucasArts history

Guy Claims To Be Using GameStop As His Personal Bank

Founded in 1982 as a new division of George Lucas' entertainment empire, LucasFilm Games intended to hinge its products on cutting-edge technology. David Fox, also known as LucasArts Employee #2, envisioned a visually rich first-person spaceship game for Atari 8-bit systems - and doesn't that just sound perfect for Star Wars?

"I wanted it to be a Star Wars game originally," Fox said, "and we were told right up front, when we asked, that we were not allowed to do Star Wars titles. "And I was really upset," he said, laughing. "I joined the company because I wanted to be in Star Wars and that was the closest way I could do it, to create a game and do it that way."

Though LucasFilm Games would eventually align with Star Wars as it became the LucasArts we knew, it was this initial denial that set a course for long-lasting collaboration and unique design approaches. Speaking at the Game Developers Conference, in the first postmortem panel dedicated to a company, former figureheads spoke of an atmosphere in which creators were permitted to do anything but Star Wars.

Stop And Admire The Original Super Mario Bros. Box Art

Though it borrows a superficial structure from Super Smash Bros., upcoming indie multiplayer game BitBrawlers sets itself apart by giving players the ability to customize their combat.

According to developer Tiny Build Games, BitBrawlers offers players the chance to customize abilities, weapons and even the environment they're fighting in. That trailer above demonstrates a few of these user-generated elements, though the process through which players build new elements for the game remains a mystery. That said, Tiny Build claims it built the above trailer in "an hour on the GDC showfloor," which suggests that the tools are easy to use once you've got a grasp on things.

Tiny Build has yet to offer a solid release date for BitBrawlers, but plans to release the game to Steam at some point in 2014. [Image: Tiny Build Games]
