“We’re big fans of TV shows like Lost. We love shows that really cement the feeling where you watch an episode, you have a cliffhanger, and you absolutely need to watch the next one.”

“That’s our plan for season two and beyond, [for us] to approach it in a similar way. ‘What’s the whole point of the season? Where do we start and where do we end up?’” – Renegade Kid co-founder Jools Watsham

Dakko Dakko lead designer Rhodri Broadbent has spoken very positively about the studio’s experience working with Nintendo and the Wii U hardware for Scram Kitty and his Buddy on Rails’ creation.

In an interview with ONM, Broadbent commented that Dakko Dakko has “found Nintendo to be tremendous to work with, and very supportive of Scram Kitty and his Buddy on Rails right from the start.”

Broadbent also shared a few remarks about developing for Wii U. He said that the recent report from an unnamed developer, which essentially blasted the console, was “out-of-date information and needless negativity around Wii U development.” Ultimately, he feels that “bringing your game to a Nintendo system should be about taking advantage of the toybox of possibilities they provide you with in terms of the controllers, the two screen setup, Miis, and so on.”

Be sure to head past the break for Broadbent’s comments in full. You can also find ONM’s full interview here, which includes comments about developing for one platform and more.
