Yo gang!

We’re deep in the grips of developing Wrestling With Emotions: New Kid On The Block, but a couple of weeks ago we took a little time out to run with a fun mini-game idea for SA Game Jam 2022.

Game jams have been such a big part of the development of Team Lazerbeam; they challenge us to try out new things and let us take a break from our overarching projects to create a small rad experience for players to enjoy.

Over the years we’ve participated in SA Game Jam, Ludum Dare Game Jam, and Free Lives Game Jam Island! In fact, the original Wrestling with Emotions was created for a little jam, way back in January 2016!

When brainstorming for this game jam, we jammed out exploring the idea of a "band scouting simulator" mini-game for our pro-wrestler dating sim.

In the 72-hour time limit, we wrote and recorded some new tunes, and made up some imaginary bands for you to pick and choose from. Not bad for just two people!

INTRODUCING: Band Hunter

"BAND HUNTER" is a game about listening to tunes and deciding the fates of bands in an alternative 1994! Successful bands will get to play at our in-game skate-park/ club, Thrashers.

Will you give tomorrow's next superstar their first break?

Or will you shatter the dreams of an ever hopeful new band?

Only you can decide!

You’ll be able to play Band Hunter when Wrestling With Emotions: New Kid On The Block releases or you can try it out through SA Game Jam.

We hope you all have a fantastic holiday period and we will be back in January with our next dev update! As always, you can find us on Discord or Social Media if you want to keep up with all our latest news:
