Soul Saga will come to Wii U if Kickstarter stretch goal is hit
Disastercake’s RPG, “Soul Saga”, has a chance of landing on Wii U. The game will head to the eShop if a $105,000 stretch goal is reached on Kickstarter.
Mike from Disastercake already has a few ideas in mind as to what the team could do on Wii U:
I’m not exactly positive how I will deal with it exactly yet, but I think I will be adding a lot of the GUI (graphical user interface) on the Wii U controller, clearing up the space on the TV to look more like a movie. I think it’s great to have lots of screen real estate, and game designers have been struggling to find ways to get the GUI out of the way of the pretty graphics for a long time.
[In the game] the player has a Steampunk styled smart phone for communicating with other people in the game world, so that menu GUI would be able to find a good place on the controller. So if the player gets a text message while roaming the world, the Wii U GamePad will start to vibrate and make a noise. Or, if the player has an incoming call it will also vibrate and ring and display the caller’s portrait on the GamePad like it was a smart phone. The player can then answer the phone to initiate the conversation, or just hang up on them if they want to dodge that call.
More information about Soul Saga can be found on the Kickstarter page here. At present, the title is roughly $35,000 funded. Disastercake is looking to reach $60,000 within the next 22 days.
