Soda Drinker Pro coming to Xbox One in September
The wild world of soda drinking simulation is finally making the leap to the next-generation. Soda Drinker Pro is coming to the Xbox One, Will Brierly, the game's creator, tells Joystiq. Harnessing the power of Kinect, Xbox One users can drink actual soda to complete the game's various soda chugging challenges (or at least mimic the action to control the game). Also included is Soda Drinker Pro's secret game Vivian Clark, a lucid dream-like platforming mini-game. The Xbox One version will also feature exclusive levels, including a "Drinking Soda Through Time" experience, offering soda fans the opportunity to sip in various environments, including the roaring '20s. Brierly confirmed the game would run at a 60fps in 1080p. "It's important," he tells us, "we need a pixel-perfect experience with complete fluid dynamics." Soda Drinker Pro will arrive on the Xbox One in September. The game is currently available on PC, Mac and Linux.
Vivian Clark, Soda Drinker Pro's secret game, Kickstarted
Soda Drinker Pro is a weird game, a first-person, real-time simulation of drinking some soda. Full disclosure: we don't fully get it. And we didn't know that there was a secret passage in the game, leading into a completely different game called Vivian Clark.Snowrunner Games revealed Vivian Clark in a Giant Bomb interview, and has now gone on to Kickstart a full version of it. It's bizarrely surreal where Soda Drinker Pro is bizarrely hyperreal, a game in which you start as a raindrop and then become the next object or creature you touch – "Everything from a raindrop to a turtlefish to microscopic organisms to electricity to a star wearing roller skates," all rendered in hand-drawn art.The Kickstarter project seeks $20,000 to build Vivian Clark out from a game jam prototype into a full game, with 100 additional playable "worlds" (or more depending on funds). If you want a proof of concept, look no further than Soda Drinker Pro, which, we'll remind you once again, exists and is inexplicable. Here's how to find Vivian Clark in there.
