As part of the upcoming release of Squirrelington: Battle for Acorn Supremacy on PC, scheduled for August 29, the developers are celebrating in style by hosting a unique livestream event on Steam featuring real-life squirrels engaging in playful activities. As writing goes, it’s still in progress, and that’s pretty awesome?
In the event you’re out of the loop, Squirrel With A Gun has gone from “>a factor that simply made for enjoyable Twitter movies a number of years in the past to a factor that is now truly popping out on PC and console, and it is about precisely what you’d have anticipated, in addition to some platforming you may not have.
As the day arrives when the eagerly anticipated sport unlocks on Steam and the Epic Retailer, its developers are gearing up for a special celebration – a livestreamed extravaganza dedicated to those charming creatures, with the help of YouTube channel Yard Buddies, renowned for offering an unobstructed view into the fascinating world of wildlife.
It’s fascinating to note that a specific aunt and uncle own an astonishing 15 million birdfeeders, which has led to a new trend in video game development. The industry is now catering to their unique preferences, likely incorporating features that cater to their unusual interest in absorbing hedgehogs.
We’ve embedded the broadcast underneath; feel free to take a look yourself. For the enjoyment of the squirrels, we’ve designated certain areas where they can play and frolic, complete with tiny plastic toys from an online game. The stream I’m currently watching features a toy automobile accompanied by an assault rifle situated next to a meal bowl, while the stream’s perspective repeatedly oscillates between that setting and a larger backyard area featuring multiple food stops – one of which contains a revolver sitting adjacent to an enormous sniper rifle.
The general consensus suggests that the squirrels remain remarkably unfazed by the presence of firearms, busily attending to their typical squirrel concerns with impressive proficiency. While watching a snail slide slowly down to where its tail attaches to its body? The opposite squirrel seemed less than thrilled, its sudden departure betraying a hint of disgruntlement. Ahh, nature.
Given that Steam developer broadcasts are typically not archived after their conclusion, I’m hoping that at the very least the highlights will be uploaded somewhere to preserve these events for future reference?
