Viscous!

Iron Paw is officially dead in the water for the moment, even after some nice-looking concept art. We may return to it at some point, but Tekken is far too beautiful and complex a game to be emulated by a barrel full of monkeys with delusions of grandeur.

So! The next project is Viscous, a 2D doujin fighter involving some real slimy characters (literally!). It's early days for the project, but those monkeys with delusions of grandeur will keep you updated on the games' progress through out social media (http://www.tinyurl.com/DataWestGames). On the dawn of the sixth day, look to the West - Data West, that is! Aroogah!

Iron Paw: 'Bryan Furry'!

The fourth character in Iron Paw (our 2D doujin fighter) is 'Bryan Furry', a police station mascot with a penchant for assisting his human comrades - until he was killed in the line of duty. Brought back to life by advanced veterinary science, Bryan now lives only for causing destruction wherever he goes - all thoughts of justice and honour gone from his mind.

Roster Complete!

Concept art of 'Greggs-Chan' (Greggs Fighter).

'Greggs-Chan' (name tentative!) is a character design for our doujin game, Greggs Fighter. At the moment, we're thinking that she's going to be a secret character, or a computer-only opponent. Figures that the concept art we spend the most time on, ends up being hidden from the player...
