Peter Molyneux's parody twitter account, Molydeux, has released a parody trailer of Peter Molyneux's upcoming game, Curiosity.

Peter Molyneux's parody twitter account, Molydeux, has released a parody trailer of Peter Molyneux's upcoming game, Curiosity.

The parody persona has become a celebrity in its own right and inspired a global game jam in Molydeux's name. In the 1:11 minute trailer, Molydeux pokes fun at marketing departments at major publishers and explains in the accompanying YouTube video description that this trailer was the reason he decided to go independent.

"This is a rough video edit proposed by the marketing team," Molydeux writes. "Not only were they showing my creation as it was not intended, but they were also trying to change the actual game design. I cannot forgive them for this."

The dubstep-riddled trailer shows plenty of explosions, purchasable skins, celebrity cameos, and a PEGI 16 rating.

Curiosity is an upcoming iOS, Android and PC game in which players tap away at a cube made of 60 million smaller cubes. The fake trailer can be viewed below.
