Publisher Yogscast Games and developer Perfectly Paranormal have announced that they’re bringing The Holy Gosh Darn to Switch. A release is planned for late 2023.
The Holy Gosh Darn, a narrative adventure game with a time-traveling twist, “puts players in the role of Cassiel, an angel who must prevent an army of Phantoms from overrunning Heaven”. We have more information below.
From the creators of Manual Samuel and Helheim Hassle, The Holy Gosh Darn is a laugh-out-loud narrative adventure that puts players in the role of Cassiel, an angel who must prevent an army of Phantoms from overrunning Heaven – which is really annoying because that’s where you live.
Discovering the existence of the Holy Gosh Darn, a mysterious artefact created by God thousands of years ago, you must strap on your time-travelling watch and set about hopping between the past, present and future, meeting a cast of ridiculous characters across dynamically changing locations in a bid to uncover the secret to life, universe and… well, everything.
Use your powers of time travel to jump freely through time across Heaven, Hell, Earth and Helheim. Uncover information in one timeline to alter things in another in a bid to stop your universe from going bang. Again. Expect outrageous humor, inventive puzzles and laugh-out-loud set pieces with Metroidvania-style progression – all expertly crafted by developer Perfectly Paranormal.
Key Features
- Four different worlds to explore, across both Space AND Time!
- Unique time-pressured narrative requires players to hurry along NPCs as they uncover new information.
- Uncover fresh narrative strands which are triggered by progression, time, space and logic.
- 23 Heavenly Elders to insult! Gotta dis them all!
- Exactly 4,250 dogs – none that you can pet.
Simon Byron, Director of Publishing at Yogscast Games, said of the announcement: “I’ve always admired Perfectly Paranormal for their ingenious ideas and laugh-out-loud humor, and The Holy Gosh Darn looks set to take this even further with its hilarious approach to time travel. If you’ve ever wanted to play a game that stars an angel with a magic, upgradeable time-travelling watch, well… you’re going to love it.”
