First, we don't think this is a way early April Fool's joke but on the surface it certainly could pass for one. A newly announced game development company called Grimoire Assembly Forge (made up of 100 forum posters at the NeoGAF message boards) has revealed its first game project; a free browser based title called (deep breath) "Dudebro - My S*** Is F***** Up So I Got to Shoot/Slice You II: It's Straight-Up Dawg Time" (exhale).

Yep, this game is designed to be a parody of a number of typical gaming cliches. Even the game's title makes it a sequel to a game that wasn't released because "sequels are always more awesome than original games - as all hardcore gamer dudes know." The 3D top down shooter will have John Dudebro as the lead character along with his sidekick Habemus Chicken. They will have to fight off a number of enemies that "threatens the world's brodiocity." The press release says that while paying tribute to previous games, it will also give some respect to the old school action genre with "power-ups, pixel art story sequences and ridiculous boss fights."

The game, which will use the Unity 3D engine, has also secured the voice talents of Jon St/ John who is best known as the voice of 3d Realms' Duke Nukem character. Dudebro II is due for release later this summer.
