Hi there!

We are Puddle, AKA Brian Gibson (Thumper) and Mike Mandel (Rock Band, Fuser, Fantasia: Music Evolved). You might also know Brian as the bassist for the band Lightning bolt. This is our new game, THRASHER.

THRASHER is a cosmic racer and essential audiovisual experience. Swoop, dash and thrash across the void at breakneck speed, busting through obstacles and stacking up combos as you battle towards the next wild boss.

Alongside out-of-this-world visuals, there’s also a thumping soundtrack brought to life with 3D spatial audio, so you can truly lose yourself in the sonic spectacle.

We plan to release the VR version next year, with flatscreen versions to follow sometime after. That’s all the news we have for now. Make sure to follow for more updates!
Thanks,
Puddle
