Astrogun becomes official Wii U developer, bringing Project CIDER to the console
Astrogun founder Xander Davis made waves when he blasted the Wii U last year. Since then, he changed his tune and has high praise for Nintendo’s indie approach.
Davis’ new interest in the Wii U has resulted in his company becoming an official developer for the system. Better yet, Project CIDER has been confirmed for the eShop.
Davis told Nintendo Life:
“The kid in me is so thrilled to be making a game for a major Nintendo console that I dug up all my Nintendo Powers from 1988 onward and have been pouring over them for inspiration. It’s a good feeling, and I think that’s already making its way into the game design. I’m fulltime developing Project CIDER now, and the next few months are especially going to be very intense with a lot of rapid development. It’s a very exciting time.”
