Press release:
Tangerang, Indonesia – September 25th, 2018 – Toge Productions are proud to announce that it’s teamed up with developer Mojiken Studio to bring its 4-player arcade action affair “Ultra Space Battle Brawl” to Steam on October 4th for $9.99/8.19€/ 7.19£.
Ultra Space Battle Brawl is a competitive local multiplayer party game mashing up the best qualities of Windjammers, Street Fighter, and Pong on steroids. Ultra Space Battle Brawl tasks players with protecting their diamond, and destroying their opponents’, by deflecting a ball projectile back and forth. The cast of 10 playable characters each include their own unique story and stats, dictating power, speed and attacks. Featuring a full single-player campaign, 1v1, and 2v2 modes, Ultra Space Battle Brawl is easy to pick up and play, but hard to master and could contribute to a fair amount of animosity amongst your friends.
Ultra Space Battle Brawl’s style is heavily influenced by Indonesian culture. The soundtrack is composed of “funkot” tunes, a genre typically associated with Indonesian truck drivers that merges dangdut (Indonesian folk) and house music. Ultra Space Battle Brawl also has an intro soundtrack by legendary composer Manami Matsumae, of Mega Man and Shovel Knight fame. Ultra Space Battle Brawl’s art direction was inspired by the concept of “what if a gaijin (Japanese term for foreigner) made a Japanese influenced game in the 80s?”
“We’re all fans of competitive local multiplayer games, and Ultra Space Battle Brawl combines the quick reflexes and tactical strategy that’s made us fall in love with the genre,” said Toge Productions Founder and CEO Kris Antoni. “On top of that, we aim to include regional Indonesian culture in all of our games, and we pride ourselves in that there’s nothing else out there that looks or sounds quite like Ultra Space Battle Brawl.”
