![]() “A lot of people are obviously offended by the game. This is a competitive video game, after all, and if you made an analaogy between “Genital Jousting” and a more traditional multiplayer game like “Call of Duty,” you’d think that penetrating somebody else’s butt is like getting a kill, and your own butt getting penetrated would be like being killed.īut that outlook isn’t in the spirit of “Genital Jousting,” which is intended as a joke on that mindset. You earn points by by giving and receiving - something that may not be obvious at first glance. You can see a video of “Genital Jousting” in action at the top of the post (and here’s the requisite NSFW warning). Each point earned adds to the length of your penis. Once every penis is, ah, engaged one way or the other, the round ends and the scores are tallied. “Genital Jousting” is a party game, intended to be played with up to seven of your friends, in which each player tries to insert his or her disembodied penis into the butt of the other disembodied penises. This game, we learned later, is called “Genital Jousting.” It’s the product of Free Lives Games, the small South African game development studio responsible for the action movie parody game “Broforce.”Īlso Read: Who Cares About Realism In Video Games Anyway? 'Dirt Rally' Does What we saw from there was a marvel: four disembodied penises, a couple of which were wearing clothes. So we sat down, picked up the controllers, and consented. My friend and I were confused by the neglect because of what was on the screen: eight colored rectangles of equal size, each containing the phrase “press up to consent.” It was late in the day, and the Devolver lot was full of people hanging out and having a free drink - the arcade stands were occupied, but this TV had been left alone, even though it had an accompanying couch and seating was at a premium. They also had the group Polycade set up a bunch of arcade-style kiosks where any E3 attendee could hang out and play games Devolver had on offer.Īlso Read: How the Video Games Industry Created Its Own Cult of Toxic Fans (Commentary)Īlong with the arcade was a large TV showing off a game that was, on the first day of the show, being ignored. This year Jerri was unfortunately absent, but in her place was a food truck. In the past, that food was barbecue cooked up by former “Survivor” contestant Jerri Manthey. Instead, they buy out a parking lot across the street from the Los Angeles Convention Center, where they park a few airstream trailers for its developers to present their games to press and give everyone free beer and food. It just so happens that the game I enjoyed most at E3 this year was one of those, a gay orgy party game that was on display at indie publisher Devolver Digital’s booth.ĭevolver doesn’t set up in E3 itself. It’s “Video Game Christmas,” as they say, even though the only gifts are ads games fans will have to pay for whenever they come out.īut focusing on the big stuff means you’re more likely to miss the real treasures of E3: Obscure independent games that won’t ever get much of a marketing push. So, if dicks are your thing, so is Genital Jousting, and it is available now on Steam for $7.Every June when the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) rolls around, what everyone seems to focus on are the big games - the new “Call of Duty,” the latest major PlayStation 4 exclusive, and so on. This is the Citizen Kane of penis video games.” “Genital Jousting’s story mode is the greatest narrative ever created for the medium of video games. The plush retails for $30 and features a sound chip that features a “surprise SFX when squeezed.”Īnd just because, Devolver Digital CFO Fork Parker had this to say in a moment of sincere eloquence: To celebrate the launch of the game, you can also get your hands on a Genital Jousting plush that comes with a code for the game. Not that there are many of those, I would imagine. According to the press release, Genital Jousting is “one of the top online sex party video games of the past decade.” The game originally came on Steam Early Access late last year and has amassed a player base of over 300,000. Publisher Devolver Digital has announced that the sausage fest adventure game has left Early Access and is now a full game according to a new press release, and features an all-new story mode starring a dick who is aptly named, John. Other times standing out just means that your game is about dicks, and what comes (giggity) is a little game called Genital Jousting. Sometimes, standing out means it’s better to be unusual than it is to stick with the status quo.
