SupScrib press release makes it sound like its a game for crazy people

I ran across this press release over at another site. Pretty typical stuff - barely even worth posting about - but some bits of it struck me as...odd.

• Brand New Levels: Experience 120 brand new, in-depth levels that include task such as finding a cure forthe plague, populating an office or identifying animals with shells.
• All-New Adjectives System:Create a shy green polar bear or an angry zombie pear! 10,000+ adjectivesreflect real life behaviours, personalities and characteristics when applied to objects.

• Universal Feedback System:Visualise progress throughout each level! Relevant objects summoned get athumb up, while irrelevant objects get a thumb down.

• New Control Schemes:Control Maxwell with the D-pad or with updated and more precise new Styluscontrols! Weight, buoyancy, friction have all been reworked to make objects interact better to theplayer’s input and reflect any adjective that is applied to an object.

• Innovative UI:An exciting new UI gives players more control over gameplay, with more detail on how tonavigate through new levels in the game.

For some reason I'm imagining a person who has never heard of Scribblenauts before reading some of this info.


"So...you're telling me in Scribblenauts I have to...furnish an office? And then identify creatures with shells? What does any of this have to do with a zombie pear?!"


It's easy to take for granted just how random and "out of left field" this game really is. Either way, this single press release is enough to make me want to get my hands on the game. It addresses every possible complaint I had with the first. I'm particularly excited about the improvements to the weight and friction of objects.
