It looks like a lot of indie developers are really embracing the PlayStation platform and for the most part, we are reaping the benefits with tons of really interesting and unique games. We’re also getting sequels to games once long forgotten which is what Finish Line Games will be releasing this spring on PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, and PS Vita. They are reviving the old Cel Damage franchise and bringing it back as Cel Damage HD.

For those who might not remember the game, Cel Damage is a vehicle combat game in a demolition derby style game. Think of it like Twisted Metal but more cartoony with cel-shaded art. Since this will be a Cross-Buy title, Cel Damage HD will offer single-purchase, multi-platform support, and once purchased can be downloaded for all systems.

Press Release

Toronto – February 27, 2014 – Independent video game developer Finish Line Games announced today that it is bringing the chaotic, cartoon-inspired vehicle combat title, Cel Damage HD, to the PlayStation®4 and PlayStation®3 computer entertainment systems and the PlayStation®Vita handheld entertainment system this spring. As a Cross-Buy title, Cel Damage HD will offer single-purchase, multi-platform support, and once purchased can be downloaded for all systems.

A revitalization of the timeless classic Cel Damage, the “HD” version is a fast-paced vehicle combat game where the world’s toughest cartoon drivers get behind the wheel of outlandish cars and battle each other in order to gain fame on the most popular cartoon demolition derby show on TV. With six characters to choose from, combatants smash, shoot and slice enemies into oblivion using an array of destructive armaments for personal glory. With vibrant cel-shaded art, Cel Damage HD transports players into a real-life cartoon environment, and allows them to explore 13 arena-style levels with 10 playable cars and more than 30 weapon power-ups.

“As longtime developers we’ve always enjoyed games that meld the realm of video games with other, similar forms of entertainment,” said Daniel Posner, co-founder of Finish Line Games. “With Cel Damage HD, we’re bringing back one of our favorite mash-ups of classic vehicle combat games and cartoon animation to give players the distinct experience of playing as if they are in a cartoon. We are excited to see how modern-day fans react to this merging of mediums and we’re thrilled to be giving players Cross-Buy support to allow them to play on their preferred system.”
