Morphies Law is a third-person shooter developed and published by independent studio Cosmoscope. The game was released for the Nintendo Switch on the 20th of August and a PC version is on the way, although they have yet to announce an official release date for it.
The game has an interesting concept that has players shooting at their opponent's extremities. Every time an extremity is hit, the size of the affected limp is transferred to the one that took the shot; thus growing in size while the opponent's limb shrinks.
After a disappointing launch, Cosmoscope has revealed that they will be adding free content in the future; all of this in hopes to fix some bugs, and make people more interested in playing the game.
The official
Morphies Law website has shared a new blog giving players an update on the current state of the game, as well as letting players know that they are working hard on improving the experience and that this free update will come out sometime around Christmas and, if not, before Easter.
The
entry on the official Morphies Law website reads as follows:
Dear Morphies around the globe,
Due to a bunch of reasons – some of which we could influence, others not – our launch wasn’t good and sadly it’s hard to find full games these days. This sucks for a multiplayer game and we are determined to fix this situation. For this to happen though, we need to make a big splash.
We can’t tell you yet what this big splash will be, but we can tell you this: You will get A LOT more Morphies Law – for free! We just ask you to be patient for a little while.
The whole team is hard at work improving things and implementing new ideas and content, some of which we think will make a big difference, and once it’s ready we believe it will convince people to go back to stealing mass and morphing massively, and not just on the Switch!
Whether Santa will deliver the package we don’t know yet, but we can tell you that it won’t be the Easter Bunny.
Soon we’ll start sharing some more details about what we are working on, and we’ll be updating this page with that information. Worry not, we’ll let you know on social media whenever there’s an update!
Thank you all for your support until now, it’s been fantastic and we will make sure that you aren’t disappointed with what’s to come.
Team Morphies Law
Morphies Law is a robot morphology driven 3D shooter with a simple basic law: each weapon hit transfers mass from the victim’s damaged limb (making it shrink) to the corresponding limb of the attacker (making it grow).
Morphies Law is currently available for the Nintendo Switch.
