Hail to the Chimp is a party game where players battle one another to become the new leader of the Animal Kingdom. Players use the game’s unique team-up mechanic, balancing cooperation with competition, to claw their way to victory.

“We're as happy as a hippo in a henhouse to be a key part of Gamecock's launch,” said Wideload founder and CEO Alexander Seropian. "We're working hard to craft an original, fun game, and retaining ownership of the IP is a huge benefit of this partnership. The Gamecock guys have a stellar record in publishing games and treating developers right, and are poised to give the video game business a much-needed kick in the pants."

“Alex and his team have proven that original titles have an impact in this marketplace,” said Harry Miller, President and Head of Development for Gamecock Media Group. “This group is not afraid to take a risk or push the limit on originality and humor. Hail to the Chimp is set to carry on their benchmark humorous legacy established by Stubbs the Zombie.”
