Physics glitches that are common at the start of development can be hilarious. But when it comes to Octodad: Dadliest Catch, they’re actually quite frightening.
The video game about the difficulties of secretly being an octopus while wearing a business suit, Octodad, is getting a sequel. But it won’t happen without the help of people hungry for third-person tentacle stealth action willing to spare some change.
Octodad is the video game tale of one suit-wearing dad whose wife and kids don’t realise he is an Octopus. Despite what its developers from DePaul University told me today at the Game Developers Conference, I’m sure it’s not a documentary.
Loving husband. Caring father. Secret octopus. This is the tagline for Octodad, an adventure game in which players struggle to raise a family, maintain a secret octopus identity and somehow walk upright on tentacles.
