Review: The Maw
January 27th, 2009 No Comments
The Maw is a puzzle platformer that’s loaded with personality and polished until it shines. Twisted Pixel’s labor of love may be about eating things and getting bigger to eat more things, but the first thing Maw will devour is your heart.

Interview with Mike Henry of The Maw
September 7th, 2008 1 Comment
Mike Henry of Twisted Pixel Games was on hand to tell us about his adorable purple people eater, The Maw. The game is a third-person action adventure that you’d get if Jak and Daxter crossbred with Ico, and the baby was a craven purple eating machine (and adorable to boot). The player actually controls Frank, a blue alien with a high-tech leash that in turn controls the Maw. You direct the little predator to eat and grow and do all the heavy lifting that requires no courage at all. Frank gets stuck with everything else.
The Maw doesn’t have a scheduled release date yet, but you can check out the trailer at the official site to get a sense of what to expect when it hits XBLA. In the meantime, click the jump to find out more about Frank, how the Maw got so cute, and how feasible it is to make a lot from a little as a developer.
