For those who don't know about this quirky little game Rag Doll Kung Fu it is a small project being developed by a Lionhead artist on his spare time and it looks kinda neat. It even features eight players using several USB mouses!

GS: And what about solo players? What kind of gameplay options can they expect to find?

MH: The first thing that is available for solo players is the training/story mode, which takes you through 16 levels of getting to grips with it all--learning to walk, jump, munch mushrooms, fly, use weapons, and such. This is where the film resides too, to tell the story between levels (commonly known as cutscenes, I believe). Hopefully, along the way, you'll find many of the secrets I have hidden--which in turn unlock the various subgames (single-player and multiplayer). The single-player games are as follows: ninja onslaught (how long can you survive against the ever-increasing ninjas?); chu chu wing pooh (kick giant eggs up a mountain to hatch your psychedelic smoke-breathin' buddies); shaolin soccer, and the ability to practice the individual athletic events.

And since this is a Lionhead related interview here is the compelled hype

GS: So, besides Rag Doll Kung Fu, what are you working on now that Fable is out of the way?

MH: OOOOOOOHHHHHH, I wish I was allowed to show you. Basically, Peter has given me and Alex free rein to "make something cool." This, of course, is a dream come true, and the thing we are making is indeed very cool, even if I do say so myself. There are three of us on the project (we kidnapped Dave Smith, a closet physics coder), and it's coming along leaps and bounds. I think I can get away with saying that the main "mechanic" is all about creativity, and the graphic engine pisses over everything else out there. Everything.
