Sure, here we go:

Hey there! So, get this—I was just checking out this new game, “I Am Your Beast,” and I had to share. It’s out now for Xbox Series X|S. Fast-paced doesn’t even begin to describe it. Imagine climbing trees and blowing things up like you’re starring in your own crazy action fantasy.
Anyway, the game kicks off with this dude, Alphonse Harding, who’s done with his life of sneaky sabotage. I mean, after seeing a bird get picked off—snap! It’s like something switched in him. COI (some sketchy shadow group he worked for) tries to reel him back in, but instead, he serves them a fist and grabs their gun mid-air. Because why not?
Now you’re probably wondering—what’s the gameplay like? Oh man, it’s wild. You’re zipping through these mini battlefields, pulling stunts straight out of an action movie. Climbing trees, setting up traps, or using beehives (yeah, BEES!) to mess with folks. And if you’re a fan of speedrunning, you’ll probs have a blast trying to perfect your scores.
The game packs in some extra content too, like “Support Group”—which sounds like a catchy self-help meeting but isn’t. It’s where COI agents recount facing our superhuman hero. Then there’s “Cold Sweat,” offering up bizarre challenges. It’s all there to keep your thumbs busy.
Oh, also! Wait, there’s this hype soundtrack. Honestly, if it were in Eurovision, I’d hand it 12 points. But who am I kidding? I’m biased, end of the day.
I had a chance to yak with the creators. Dan Pearce, the lead dev, wants you leaving the game feeling epic. He says it’s about choreographing your action movie scene, where guns are more like boomerangs. You’re not just watching cool stuff happen, you’re causing the chaos.
And Jim Brown, the level guy, keeps talking about discovery. Like, there are all these secret paths, and he just dares you to find them all. Each level is a raid on your creativity and button-mashing prowess. It’s a puzzle wrapped in an explosion, served on a platter (well, kind of).
Oh, gotta mention—Jim and Dan had to pick one word for their creation. Jim said “Dynamic” because, duh, it’s all about moving with flair. Dan settled with “Visceral.” Picture yourself as a dog shredding history papers. Your enemy? The military-industrial complex, of course.
Strange Scaffold (the cool crowd making this game) wants you to love it as much as they’ve poured their souls into it. And rightfully so, it’s one heck of a ride compressed in comic-book pixels.
“I Am Your Beast” is screaming to be played right now on Xbox, so go punch some bad guys for me, will ya?

There it is, in all its unfiltered chaos!
