Press release:
Tallinn, Estonia (August 28, 2023).
The Tallinn-based (Estonia) indie games developer Chaosmonger Studio are today very happy and excited to announce that their fast-paced retro-like run-n-gun platformer “Schizollama“, is coming to PC and consoles in mid-2024.

The game, which visuals are created using pixel art to achieve a retro-arcade look (think late 80s / early 90s games), promises to entertain different generations of players, with tons of funny splatterish elements, fast-paced action, humor, and randomized levels.

STORYLINE
A group of highly-trained mercenaries is hired by a wise old llama to join an almost impossible mission. The aim of which is to exterminate every alpaca out there. The reason? Well, first of all, they are disgusting beasts, second, they are often confused with llamas, therefore is better for everybody if only one species survives. Aboard a drilling-machine, the llamas will travel a bizarre journey all around the world, digging their way out, collecting funky substances, and fighting an army of alpacas and their beastie allies.

KEY FEATURES
– Procedurally generated levels for nearly infinite replayability.
– Colored pixel-art toon graphic, with frame-by-frame animations.
– Fantasy violence, with liters of pixelated blood and funny splatter scenes.
– Two multiplayer co-op.
– Very fast action.

Schizollama will launch mid-2024, for PC (Windows, MacOS, Linux, SteamDeck) and Consoles (Nintendo Switch, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series).
