The same development company made a 2D sidescrolling RTS called Swords and Soldiers. I highly recommend it.

They were probably sent a code. They've said a few times too that it's easier to capture video off of a 360.

What's up with the hard cut at the end of the video? No fade out?

seems really cool! it probably wont get a PC release though, so I'll miss out on the fun.

yeah, The bull doesn't do any damage to anything, its just pushback. I just which they got someone the their crew who actually understood and appreciated MOBAS.

jeff, in mobas you can suicide to go home insted of walking, as long as you spent all your money, die to jungle/neutral creeps, and the respawn time is shorter than what it will take to walk home.

For a game that snuck out, this looks really interesting. Will definitely have to pick it up at some point.

I think Lucas owns the rights to droids.  They're going to have to change that.

To Ryan Davis: Try jumping over the enemy than using the bull attack to push enemy into your turret. Finish him off with dynamite once he is weakened by turret fire. Haven't played Awesomenauts but that's a common tactic in MOBAs. Might be applicable.

It actually does do damage once it's upgraded. It's not that much and it's not it's primary use, but still .... damage. This game is really fun by the way, wish more people played it on the 360.

I wonder if Ryan ever found out that you can charge the dynamite throw, to throw it further.

Also, Medic-naut is OP. Just sayin

@Slaegar: The bull seems to be an everything repellant, which seems useful for a ranged class.

Looks fun but man, it's boring to watch.
