After a seven-day nap, we’ve finally recouped enough energy to share the sordid details of Playtonic’s E3 adventures, where we privately showed off Yooka-Laylee for the first time and, by our estimation, consumed about 15 burgers in a half-week.

A troop of online media outlets kindly came to visit our meeting room at the Los Angeles-based show, and we rewarded each with a short and sharp demo of Yooka-Laylee – the first time we’ve done so since our crowdfunding campaign a year ago.

The hands-off demo focused on the new stuff we’re aiming to inject into the platform genre; expandable worlds, tonics, freeform move unlocking and our revamped collectibles system. Thankfully they seemed to like it, as we picked up a whole bunch of Best of Show nominations, notably from IGN, MTV, US Gamer and more. We’re very appreciative of the support, so thanks!

We also premiered to fans a glimpse of the Toybox, a custom-built Kickstarter backer experience winging its way to your PCs sometime next month. Oh, and there’s a trove of glimmering new screenshots over on the Yooka-Laylee game page, so have a look.
