There’s been some vague talk about the possibility of Gunman Clive 2 hitting this year, but it now officially looks like the game will launch in 2015. Creator Bertil Hörberg took to Twitter today and confirmed that his title passed the final lot check testing in North America, but it’s too late for it to release this year. Gunman Clive 2 will now likely arrive simultaneously in both North America and Europe sometime in 2015.
Gunman Clive 2 has passed the final lotcheck testing for the US release!

Too late for a 2014 release though, so I'll probably wait for the EU version and do a simultaneous launch
— Bertil Hörberg (@BertilHrberg) December 16, 2014
the ncl testing was pretty quick so that bodes well for a fast process for the eu version as well

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.
