Utrecht, The Netherlands, January 30, 2025 – Indie development studios Rangatang and Glowfish Interactive have shared that the first open beta playtest for their upcoming multiplayer arena brawler Nubs!, will take place this week from Friday, January 31st through Sunday, February 2nd on Steam.
A co-development from alumni behind the hit indie title 'Awesomenauts', and Belgian studio Glowfish Interactive, Nubs! lets players square up with friends and foes to duke it out in chaotic multiplayer brawls full of oddball characters, formidable weaponry, and deadly traps. The playtest will be a chance for players to go hands-on and all participants will receive a stylish ‘golden chicken’ in-game character skin for their troubles, which they will be able to sport proudly on the battlefield during the beta and when the game launches in the first half of 2025.
