Oh, Sleeper Video Game

2012-03-13 by Ignimbrite | 49 Comments
Texas metalcore quintet [l]Oh, Sleeper[/l] have announced that, on March 20th, they will be releasing a video game entitled "Stand Your Ground" that will be available on the iPhone and iPod Touch. It will be based on the storyline of Children of Fire. Said their press release:

“The side-scrolling arcade-style game focuses on the character of Gage Ryan, a warrior dispatched to lead an army against the forces of savage darkness in a barren post-apocalyptic Earth. Players will fight through multiple levels of challenging enemy forces and strongholds, earning resources along the way which can be used to summon allies and more.

And what game would be complete without power ups? “Stand Your Ground” has plenty that can be used to obliterate all the enemies on the screen. Complete with a deep storyline and a rich cast of characters, “Stand Your Ground” will appeal to fans of games like Swords and Soldiers, Plants vs Zombies, Patapon, and even Golden Axe."

@Deathbydaydream, selling a game based on a concept they previously explored on an EP is not materialistic. That would be the same as saying, "Oh look, they are selling albums, they are definitely materialistic."
