GDC 09: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles creator to work with studio on Fistful of Blood

Titmouse Games partners with Heavy Metal magazine editor

Newly formed Titmouse Games has confirmed that it has agreed a partnership with Kevin Eastman, co-creator of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and editor of iconic illustrated magazine Heavy Metal.

The partnership is set to release a number of games, starting with Fistful of Blood, an excessive action game based on the popular Heavy Metal serialisation of the same name.

“As demented as it is, I owe a lot of who I am to the wide body of work that both Kevin Eastman and Heavy Metal Magazine have exposed me to,” says Aaron Habibipour, creative director for Titmouse Games.

“Kevin and I have worked together in the past, and it was a blast. We want to start Titmouse Games off right, and I can’t think of a better way than to pack enough aliens, zombies, vampires, guns, blood, gore, vengeance, and sexy chicks in a game to take down a stampeding elephant.”

“Having been a lifelong fan of Heavy Metal Magazine I always thought the coolest part was the wide variety of stories that were published in every issue,” added Eastman, “and the chance to work with Titmouse gives Simon and I the chance to bring our Heavy Metal inspired visions to a much wider group of rabid fans!”
