And Max Scoville gets down and dirty with the game in this video. From the curious minds of Grasshopper Manufacture’s CEO Suda51 and James Gunn, director of movies such as Slither and the remake of Dawn of the Dead!

Key Features of Lollipop Chainsaw

Here is a list of key features that will be available in Grasshopper Manufacture’s Lollipop Chainsaw based on news and announcements made so far.

• Though Lollipop Chainsaw’s genre has not been officially announced, from the trailers we can assume it is of the hack n slash variety, similar to No More Heroes – not a surprise really considering you play a chainsaw wielding zombie-slayer.
• Juliet’s main weapon will be a chainsaw, but her cheerleading skills will also be at the player’s disposal. After completing certain tasks, Juliet’s weapons will be upgradeable
• Suda has also hinted that part of the gameplay will involve sound, there’s no word yet on what that means exactly, but it should be interesting to find out!
