​Spitlings offers a Story Mode as well as an Arcade Mode with over 100 Levels, each is a unique challenge and playable solo or with up to four players. You win together and you lose together because if one player fails on a level, everyone has to start all over. So you get the cozy feeling of playing with your friends and the outrage of versus multiplayer on top. 

 

"We're extremely excited about this opportunity! For our first game, we couldn't have wished for a better publisher than HandyGames. They are nothing but supportive and have the experience to make sure that SPITLINGS reaches the audience it deserves. We got a true co-op partner in them!" Milan Pingel, Founder & Producer at Massive Miniteam

 

You can even create your own levels in a unique 4-player Co-Op editor and experience them together! An intuitive, simple editor that can be used without prior experience to make a working level within minutes. Level Editing is almost as fun as playing itself. Spitlings is currently in development for PC, Nintendo Switch™, the PlayStation® 4 computer entertainment system and the Xbox® One family of devices, including the Xbox One X. The release is scheduled for later this year.
