I have not played a single boxing game outside of Wii Sports this century,
but that could be about to change. Summer Game Fest Live brought us the
reveal of Felt That: Boxing, which stars puppet pugilists.

This project from the appropriately named Sans Strings Studio and Seth
Green's animation company, Stoopid Buddy Stoodios, is billed as "a comedic,
over-the-top boxing game set in a world where the charm of furry puppets
collides with the fury of boxing." The clip is structured like a trailer for
an underdog sports movie and it is just delightful.

The snippets of gameplay suggest there will be training minigames that
include dodging slices of burnt toast that a trainer hurls at your puppet
(who is named Fuzz-E) and, uh, plunging a toilet. According to the
description on the YouTube video, the developers are aiming to make the
"boxing mechanics are intentionally ridiculous, favoring fun over precision,
with [puppet] limbs flailing about with an insane sense of chaos." Lovely.

This trailer was immediately the most interesting thing during SGF Live up to
that point. Felt That: Boxing does not yet have a release window, but you can
wishlist it on Steam now, like I just did.
