Mad Bodies is a homebrew Breakout-style/shoot 'em up video game developed and published by FORCE Design exclusively for the Atari Jaguar on May 2, 2009.[1] It is the first and only title to be released for the platform as of date by FORCE Design.
In Mad Bodies, the player takes control of the "ETHunter" space crew in an attempt to stop an entity known as The Graphics Man, who fused reality with his mind to reign supreme, by entering the Dark Knight Games tournament co-hosted by Dave Vaporware. Originally intended for the Atari Jaguar CD add-on, the game was developed over the course of more than six years. It received positive reception for its presentation and originality, however, it was criticized for its high difficulty.
