Renegade Kid briefly worked on an overhead RPG before shelving the project
Posted on 9 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. 🙂

Renegade Kid is bringing Dementium to the 3DS
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, News | 7 Comments
Renegade Kid’s Dementium franchise is heading to the 3DS. While chatting with Vinesauce during a live stream event last night, co-founder Jools Watsham shared news about what’s planned for the IP.
Renegade Kid is bringing the first Dementium game to the 3DS eShop. The company is working to address some of the more “brutal” elements like enemies that constantly respawn and the save system. In the U.S. release of the first Dementium, players would return to the beginning of the chapter if they lost to a boss. Watsham mentioned that the European version addressed this somewhat by adding automatic checkpoints before boss encounters, though it was still “not quite there.” Dementium II featured save devices, and Renegade Kid would like to implement something like that into the new eShop release.

A small Mutant Mudds Easter egg has been discovered in Xeodrifter. One area of the game has a picture of Max shooting at an enemy along with the text, “Max woz here!”. It’s a nice little inclusion from Renegade Kid!
It’s also worth mentioning that there’s another Easter egg in Xeodrifter, according to Renegade Kid co-founder Jools Watsham:
@NintendoTweet There are a couple of small Easter eggs in the game. 🙂
