Fun
The HARDEST I've LAUGHED | Party Animals
My brothers and I have been playing Gang Beasts for years, which is a fun local multiplayer jello boxer game with slippery controls. This game is coming out soon, and looks to add a few more features to the genre as a spiritual successor.
Which begs the question - how on earth did the Gang Beasts developer sit on their genre and IP for FOUR YEARS without adding any content or mechanics?! Big miss for them!
