Pooh gap

Right here’s one thing you most likely might have lived with out seeing. Twice Completely different is bringing us Winnie’s Gap, a recreation about mutating Winnie-the-Pooh with a horrific illness, to PC.

Yeah, that’s what I mentioned. In Winnie’s Gap, you play as a virus inside the foolish bear, and your purpose is to burrow by his physique and seize cells to mutate. You might want to “Refine his primitive type, adapt for survival, and don’t let his associates comprise you.” It’s grotesque.

Ugh. My goodness. Winnie’s Gap is the results of Winnie-the-Pooh slipping into the general public area. Predictably, this has led to lots of people twisting the character in darkish methods, such because the slasher flick Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey. It’s like Alice in Wonderland, it’s nearly trite at this level.
On the similar time, it’s efficient, which is likely to be why it’s so widespread. Twice Completely different might have created their very own characters, however by making use of the idea to one thing extra beloved and well-known, you get one thing extra disturbing.

There’s no means I’m enjoying Winnie’s Gap. It does some bizarre stuff to my empathy glands that simply makes me uncomfortable. Nevertheless, I do admire the distinctive idea, and I do know a number of folks within the Destructoid neighborhood who can be means into this. I’d guess 5 Canadian loonies that one in all them will present up within the feedback.

Winnie’s Gap is coming to PC by way of Steam. No launch window has been introduced.
