GC 2025 Press release

Bold Head Interactive brings Yarn Guardians and Pecker to gamescom 2025

Dortmund, August 7, 2025 – Indie publisher Bold Head Interactive is excited to announce its participation in gamescom 2025, showcasing two playable titles: the then freshly released twin-stick adventure Yarn Guardians and the quirky 3D platformer Pecker.

Both games will be available to play at the Indie Area – Home of Indies, from August 21–24, at Hall 10.2 – Booth E10/D11

Yarn Guardians (Release: August 14, 2025)
 

Fly through a hand-drawn fantasy world as one of five magical cats in this cozy-but-chaotic action adventure. Yarn Guardians combines twin-stick combat, metroidvania-style exploration, and a heartfelt story. The game will be presented in its final release version just days after launch.

Pecker (Available on Steam & Epic Games Store)
 

In Pecker, a young woodpecker with a flexible beak hurls himself through medieval worlds in a hilarious and colorful 3D platformer. The game launched in April 2025 and will be playable in both solo and local co-op at the booth.
