GDC 2010: Gameresort’s Upcoming ‘Downhill Bowling 2’

Gameresort showed us their latest game here at GDC. Downhill Bowling 2 provides a sequel to their strangely fun bowling mashup.

Like regular bowling… except you control a bowling ball as it charges down some crazy slopes with jumps, coins, bombs, cannons, speedups, sheep, grow and shrink pickups and mushrooms. Did we mention the raccoons?

The sequel offers the same downhill action but in 3 different environments with 10 levels each. It also introduces a jump button which adds a bit of platforming action to the mix as well as the ability to equip powerups at the beginning of each level.

Here’s the sequel in action:

Downhill Bowling 2 is expected for release in summer. In the meanwhile you can still play the original on the web or from the App Store [Free / $2.99]. Gameresort has also been busy over the past year with a casual free bowling game Doodle Bowling [Free] which has gained a huge audience.
