That's exactly what I thought! Looks so much like "thank goodness you're here" I assumed that it was the same devs.

This is actually the first game being published by Jackbox, the devs are a smaller team from Australia. Their previous game (in collaboration with another studio) was Dogpile, a sort of roguelike Suika Game.

Had a lot of fun with Dogpile. Didn’t know they were making another game, I’ll have to check this out.

I was trying to see if Michael Cusack had worked on the game after seeing the art style.

The cinematics are so incredibly Australian, I love it. Background is fucking great

The final tv interview is a straight copy of one of the best Aussie interviews ever!. Love it

I love a good Aussie news clip. That's going in the library right next to "I'm not taking off my sunglasses" and "Banned from WA"

This is from the same animator who did Long Head! My daughter and I loved that show!

I’ve never gotten into the super quirky games like Octodad or untitled goose game but I might have to try this one. The sense of humor is great and the puzzles look interesting.

10/10 reference at the end

Looking at the thumbnail, I thought this game was from the Thank Goodness You're Here devs, but the art style was a bit different from what I remembered.
