THIS SUMMER - From the producers that brought you potato arms dealers (HPAWS), space colonisation (HPWIS), and cannibalism (HPWTH), comes a thrilling sequel of espionage: Holy Potatoes! A Spy Story?!

Hey Spudlings! We hope you’ve enjoyed this snippet we created to introduce A Spy Story?! If you’d like to see more, you can head over to our website for a longer interactive cut. As a heads’ up, we’ll be going into greater detail into the characters and their origin stories for our next post! We’re sorry for the long wait - besides working on this latest game, we’ve also been swamped with other projects; publishing previous titles to PS4 and Switch, getting HPWIS on mobile, localising different languages and so on! Keep your eyes peeled for them, oh, and - In the meantime, why not join our Discord at https://discord.me/holypotatoes for future giveaways, contests and bragging rights ;) Plugging aside, we’ll be back with updates every week or so.

We’ve also undergone a resizing - scaling every potato-spy, building and tree to proportion.

Concerns regarding the potato sprites’ outlines were raised too: due to the use of 3D sprites previously, constant rendering in the game produced image noise. As such, we’re running with 2D sprites instead! Let’s hope they don’t go off the grid!
Here’s to the starch of something great!
