Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii, Wii U | 0 comments
– Demo takes place in a sewer level
– Green rivers and rafts can be found here
– There are puzzles, such as one in which you need to pull levels to guide a ball of energy from several stations to its ice-melting goal
– Another puzzle: fling a little ball of goo around a 2D box, drenching the poor soul in water at one point to extinguish flames
– Wolfgang: Undead type
– Wolfgang is a villain that can be trapped
– In this game, players can choose to trap bosses and some other villains
– They’ll be stored in physical toys based on their element type
– Wolfgang is a werewolf who happens to be really into music
– He wields a harp/guitar hybrid made from bone, and he can use it to fire off music-note projectiles
– Wolfgang can also charge into groups of enemies with a rock-appropriate stage slide, where he takes out foes while skidding on his knees
– Broccoli Guy complains about his name while battling enemies
– As a Life-based character, he can create a healing aura
– It persists even when players swap between their regular Skylander and their trapped companion

Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric details
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 0 comments
– 4 stages in the E3 demo
– 2 were adventure-like
– Third was a boss battle against Robotnik
– Last one was a more traditional action stage
– Single-player demo
– Switch between Sonic and his friends with the d-pad
– Adventure stages feature puzzle-solving, exploration, brawling, and slower-paced platforming
– Levels include kill rooms, puzzles/exploration, and platforming
– Puzzle/exploration involves levers to pull or switches to push
– The game re-spawns the player close to where you fall without losing much progress
– Only lose a little damage when this happens
– One adventure stage is set in an underwater facility
– This includes secret rooms, and Amy’s 2.5-D platforming segments
– Combat devolves into pushing Y for standard melee attacks
– Special move with X
– Special move depends on the character
– All characters have the energy beam
– Need to use the energy beam in a mini-boss battle and Eggman boss stage to throw smaller baddies at the boss
– Last stage was like a traditional Sonic action stage
– Sonic and his three friends run much faster through rollercoaster ramps and loop
– Some areas have you doing “lane shifting” via the L and R buttons
– Characters play similarly with subtle differences
– Ex: Knuckle is stronger, Amy has a triple jump as opposed to a double jump
– None of the characters are fast
– Knuckles cannot glide, and Tails cannot fly
– Tails can use his tail to fall more slowly
