Renegade Kid briefly worked on an overhead RPG before shelving the project
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, News | 0 comments


Renegade Kid briefly worked on “a bizarre overhead RPG-esk dungeon thing” – seemingly for the 3DS – before ultimately shelving the project, studio co-founder Jools Watsham has revealed.
Watsham shared the news in a postmortem blog on Gamasutra. He explained that the company needed to launch some sort of new title for 2014 in order to make revenue and carry on into 2015.
According to Watsham, roughly three weeks were spent on the RPG. However, while the game “was shaping up pretty good”, he explained that “in the end I just wasn’t feeling it at the time.”
Keep in mind that the project may not necessarily be dead. Watsham wouldn’t rule out the possibility of returning to the game in the future, as he said on Twitter:
@BradleyKragen Possibly. We have a lot of games we need to complete, and more ideas than we have time/money for it seems. 🙂

Update: Back in stock! Place an order here.
Pre-orders for the Shulk amiibo have already sold out on GameStop. This was the only retailer selling the figure in the United States, so there’s currently no alternative store where reservations can be placed. We can only hope that GameStop opens pre-orders again before Shulk’s launch in February!

PlatinumGames updated its official blog once again recently with a new post about Bayonetta 2. The studio shared a release event report plus more tips for the Wii U title.
Check out a few excerpts below:
Nintendo shared lots of stories about release day events from various other countries as well, and I was very happy and relieved to see the game was being so warmly welcomed all over the world, so I’m very grateful to all of you who picked it up!
As a small token of my appreciation, I have a few more tips to share, since our last blog was very well received. Hope you enjoy them! (Thanks to game designer Ryoya Sakabe for providing them!)
Touch of Gold
Did you know that the environments you normally just run through actually contain several objects that reveal haloes when you touch them on the Wii U GamePad!? If you search every nook and cranny of every stage, you might become a halo millionaire in no time!
Head on over to the PlatinumGames website for the full post.
