We're among some big AAA stuff! On Your Tail, the new indie title developed by Memorable Games and published by Humble Games, is one of the most anticipated games of 2024, according to TechRadar Gaming!
«The art style here is certainly unique, but it has its charm - says Dashiell Wood in his review - and with the game set to release as a timed Nintendo Switch console exclusive, the cozy atmosphere seems like the perfect fit for the hardware.»
We are really thrilled, since we also took part in the making of this game (whose release is very close), an open world narrative game that combines the detective and life-sim genres.
In October 2023 one of the most exciting driving games with the famous Mattel™ toy cars came back with a new release by the game developer Milestone. Maga Animation Studio supported the development team on Hot Wheels Unleashed 2 by making an epic adventure through 2D motion comics cutscenes. Similarly to its previous version, Turbocharged is a racing game in which the player takes control of vehicles from the Hot Wheels franchise and races against other opponents in miniature racetracks.
Two days ago, on 10th January, the game has been nominated for "Racing Game of the Year" at the 27th Annual D.I.C.E. Awards (Design Innovate Communicate Entertain), commonly recognized as the video game equivalent of the Academy Awards! After receiving on November 13th the nomination for "Best Sports/Racing Game" at the Game Awards 2023, this second accreditation adds even more meaning to all of us involved in this project.
Yay~! We are so happy to announce that our project Believe in Wonder, produced for Rinascente's last Christmas advertising campaign, won the 2023 Key Award for the Best Special FX and Animation category. We are immensely honoured and grateful for this award. Being recognized for our hard work and dedication means the world to Maga Animation Studio. This motivates us to work even harder towards creating new imagineries and taking them into reality again and again...with always a little of Maga's magic! We would like to take the chance to thanks all the people involved in the production, the creative agency Wunderman Thompson Italy and Rinascente marketing team.
During the Milan Games Week we spent a great time with our friends from Memorable Games and played the new demo of On Your Tail at the Nintendo space on the new NintendoSwitch! It was amazing to see and try the first of many results of our hard work and to catch up with Memorable Games' team.
Plus, on Sunday we got to watch the talk dedicated to On Your Tail, during which some snippets, some fun facts about the making of the game and some of its features were shared with all of you. The art director Imma, Immacolata Botti and head of Memorable Games and CEO Mauro Fanelli were presented by Cydonia and Kurolily.
