RymdResa in the works for Wii U
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 0 comments
RymdResa, a space exploration game coming from Russian developer Morgondag, is heading to Wii U.
Here’s a brief overview:
Space is big, empty and silent. Your role as a spaceship pilot is unclear. You know a few coordinates to some random locations; but this is the only information you got.
RymdResa is a text-based game, a space odyssey. Based on randomness.
Abstract poetry and art are expressed throughout a lonely journey in space.
Customize your ship, explore and interact in the retro stylized world of RymdResa.
There’s no word yet on when RymdResa will be hitting Wii U. At the moment, it’s in beta on Steam. The Wii U version should arrive once development is finished. In the meantime, you can watch a trailer below.
Looking into what went wrong with Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Videos, Wii U | 17 Comments
Liam Robertson, a person known for digging up information about cancelled games, recently took on the challenge of investigating Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric’s troubled development.
There’s no question that Rise of Lyric has a number of major issues. That being said, Robertson does offer some insight into why it wasn’t a better game.
For instance, did you know that Sonic Boom’s debut trailer wasn’t actually comprised of Wii U footage? The video was instead created from the game running on a PC with more powerful hardware. That’s one of the big reasons for the graphical downgrade. And even though there was a disclaimer at the beginning of the trailer stating that it was “in-engine footage” and how it represented “a work in progress”, some people may have felt mislead. Perhaps that’s why it’s now being discovered that SEGA pulled the video from its YouTube channel.
