The Magnificent Metal Men

Often thought to be too silly by the general population, some people harken back to the Silver Age as the greatest comic book period ever. Taking feedback over how dark and edgy their cinematic universe is going, DC Comics is testing the water with a brand-new game featuring one of their beloved (at the time) IPs: The Metal Men. Looking for game studios who seek a challenge, DC Comics wants to commission a brand-new game starring the titular Metal Men. Curious studios should familiarize themselves with Doctor Magnus and his group, then create a game utilizing their unique charm. Designers must make a decision which of the Metal Men or their adversaries to feature, particularly whether to include Copper or not. Likewise, the kind of game is important and there should be more of a focus on the team than any individual. Modernize the Metal Men and see if the group can bring more humor to the current age!
