Zeboyd Games (Breath of Death VII: The Beginning) is proud to announce their upcoming RPG, Cthulhu Saves the World for the XBox 360.

Cthulhu was all set to plunge the world into insanity and destruction when a band of heroes cursed him and sealed away his powers. The only way for him to break the curse is to become a true hero. Save the world to destroy it!

Features:

An epic journey of redemption and insanity!

Classic 8/16-bit style combined with the best of modern gameplay design.

720p! Parallax scrolling! Backgrounds!

Use magic and skills to inflict insanity upon your opponents! Insane enemies are more dangerous but also more vulnerable!

More accessible than ever before! Collect Save Notebooks to save wherever you like! Collect 1Ups to retry failed battles!

7 playable characters – Umi the beautiful heroine with an unhealthy obsession with the ocean, Sharpe the sentient floating sword, October the cute necromancer, Paws the alien cat, Dacre a senile old man, Ember the dark dragon, and of course, Cthulhu from the classic horror of H.P. Lovecraft!

A 6-10 hour main quest with multiple difficulties and post-game modes like Score Attack and Highlander to increase replayability!

All of the great features players know and love from Breath of Death VII: The Beginning have returned – fast-paced gameplay, combo system, random encounter limits, unite techniques, branching LV-Ups, and more!

Cthulhu Saves the World is currently scheduled for an August 2010 release on Xbox Live Indie Games. It will cost 240 MS points ($3 USD).

    Wow looks pretty neat….the graphics are definitely nostalgic as well as the music….

    Gotta keep my eye on this one! =)

  2. Totally stoked for this. BoD VII was great and shows that this title might deliver on its promise.

  3. Clint says:

    …Sweet. Super excited about this one. Day one purchase? Most likely.

    Breath of Death VII is awesome, and this looks to be even more so. My only complaint about BoD is the music being slightly lackluster, and this new battle music is pretty darn good, so I have high hopes. Chiptune version plz?

  4. Jake says:

    Very cool man… Looking forward to playing it when it comes out.

    They talk about Cthulhu on Major Nelson’s podcast.You should make sure they’re fully aware of this game so they’ll mention it on the show.
    I think the one guy named his dog Cthulhu.

    I can’t wait I enjoy your RPG’s even though you already know that. I can say I wish other gaming companies were this smart to bring back retro RPG arcade games. Instead of the really boring ones. I look forward to all future releases of your RPG games. If you all have a banner for your RPG games in future email them to me I support 100%
