Animales de la Muerte

Animales de la Muerte

There's trouble brewing down in ol' Mehicko. High Voltage Software (the ones doing Gyrostarr) reveals another game in development for WiiWare: Animales de la Muerte. Translated that means "Animals of the Dead".

It's the age old story of zoo animals turning into zombies. Lead characters Marco and Maria Mendoza use an array of colorful weaponry to waste the undead, and rescue the good animals. These weapons include:

  • Sub-machine gun.
  • Bullwhip.
  • Chainsaw.
  • Flamethrower.
  • Cattle prod.
  • Rocket launcher.

The game is described as a top-down run-and-gun game, similar to Alien Syndrome (but hopefully better). You move your character with the Nunchuk's control stick and aim using the Wiimote. Here's a trailer:

Reminds me of the code in Jurassic Park for undead looking dinosaurs. That game's going to be controversial, because not all Hispanic guys wear sombreros. Oh, and the kids with guns thing.

Hell yeahhh! I now realise, we don't need to use the wiimote as a tennis racket, a rocket launcher, not even a lightsabre. We need a FPC (First Person Chainsawer).

Cattle prod! Looks pretty gory, I wonder what it will be rated.

Wait, I'm confused. A mix of viva pinata, resident evil, and gears of war? How can a game like this even exist? But it looks awesome in a disturbing way.

It had a cute funny vibe to it. The part when the man gives the guns to the children was classic. It's like Resident Evil meets Dora the Explorer.

That has got to be the most messed up thing I've ever seen. Pretty hilarious.

Well, if it takes WiiWare to prove that there's a hardcore audience on Wii, then great! We might start seeing more quality.

Whose deranged mind came up with this? Kids with guns and enough blood to feed over 5000 vampires. This is one of the most disgusting things I have ever seen.

OH. MY. GOD. This looks awesome, I can't wait. I don't buy a lot of Wii points but I'll do it for this. Kill Boots Dora, before he eats your brains.

Well I got the wrong idea of this game. I thought it was about training animals.
