Devolver Digital Announces Fork Parker's Crunch Out for the SNES

Yes. You read that right.

If you're into charities and have a SNES console lying around, ready to be dusted off, then you should turn your attention to Devolver Digital's, Mega Cat Studios' new SNES title, Fork Parker's Crunch Out. Yes, it is a SNES game and only a SNES game, and it is a little on the pricey side: $50 for the standard edition and $150 for the limited edition, which contains a cartridge topped with a replica of an office desktop (complete with a coffee cup and LED monitor that lights up when the game is on).

But, you know what?

All profits made from this game will be directly donated to Take This, a nonprofit whose mission focuses on the awareness and support of mental health.

But what is this game about?

According to the official description from Mega Cat Studios:

"Devolver Digital CFO, Fork Parker, enjoyed a life of luxury and spent his days watching the profits roll in from the lucrative indie game publishing industry. However, an upstart new publishing label threatens to take his beloved market share, forcing the handsome executive to take matters into his own hands and start 'motivating' his game developers by any means necessary. Meaningless elements like 'artistic integrity' and 'engaging gameplay' are out the window as efficiency and deadlines now dictate the studio's every move - welcome to crunch time."


Features include:
  • Task management and questionable motivation tactics. You'll need to potentially resort to coffee, discipline, and shock treatment to "motivate" your team to meeting production goals.
  • Wise profit-spending. What will you do with your profits? Will you buy a new espresso machine to boost morale, or will you buy something to satiate your own desires?
  • You'll have power-ups, such as unpaid interns and mandatory overtime, at your disposal.
  • You'll need to take executive action in a series of minigames. No matter what happens, you need to keep yourself and your piggy bank, Pork Farker, sane.
That all sounds great, doesn't it?
