via IGN,

Today Game$#@! announced a few details on its upcoming bug noir game Insecticide, scheduled for release on PC and Nintendo DS this holiday season. The first offering from developer Crackpot Entertainment, Insecticide takes place in a futuristic city where insects have become the dominant species and is inspired by gumshoe detective films.

Gameplay borrows from both classic adventure titles and action games. Players will have to piece together clues to unravel a mystery and catch its culprit. Crackpot is taking advantage of the unique input options of both the PC and DS to allow for "precise navigation" of the game's environments and control of each character's special abilities.


Six legs and a six shooter.

"The heart of classic detective novels and movies is to get the audience involved mentally, but now via PC and the Nintendo DS we can get players involved in a much more tactile arena," said Rick Stults, Console Chief for Game$#@! Media Group. "The mouse and the stylus are the key to the 'touch and feel' experience we're really aiming for with this game and I think that's something players are really going to enjoy."

The environments of the DS version will be realized in full 3D. The handheld version will also feature a multiplayer co-op mode.
