Citing a “mutual hatred of trees and robots,” Demiurge Studios (the developer behind Shoot Many Robots, and its sequel, Shoot Many Robots: Arena Kings) has announced that it’s working with Owlchemy Labs, the creators of Jack Lumber, to develop an iOS game.

Or, given the track record of these two developers (which includes, in Owlchemy’s case, releasing a game about transporting illegal immigrants across the border into America and then replacing them with cute animals when people complained enough), perhaps they were just being wacky. It’s really difficult to tell at this point.
But the smart money is on wacky.
