Have you ever played the “Test Your Might” bonus game in Mortal Kombat? I haven’t, but apparently a couple of guy are trying to get a game on 3DS eShop based heavily around that type of mode, allowing players to memorize button combinations and timing-based actions to break a variety of materials, including wood, metal, and stone. The team has started a Kickstarter for the project, and are asking for $3,000 to secure publication on the platform with rewards ranging from copies of the game to shirts and posters.

You can find their Kickstarter here.

Genius Sonority has created two Denpa Men games thus far. How about a third? If people play and enjoy The Denpa Men 2, executive director Chihiro Kobayashi says that the studio would “sure like to make a another”.

Another topic recently addressed by Kobayashi is the Wii U. Genius Sonority doesn’t have any plans for the console currently, but it is “strongly interested” in the console.

Game Watch chatted with 3D Altered Beast producer Yosuke Okunari and M2’s Naoki Horii. The two talked about the new “Whimsical Transformation” element, long development of the project, and more.

A summary of Okunari and Horii’s comments can be found below.

– Okunari started out by saying he was surprised to be participating in an interview for Altered Beast of all titles
– Was already decided on for them to go with the Genesis version instead of the Arcade version
– When the project of Sega’s 3D enhanced classics started, 3D Sonic the Hedgehog wasn’t the only title they had in mind
– New “Whimsical Transformation” option: allows you to have a chance of going with a different transformation if you’re not satisfied with the one you have
– Ex: in one situation, the players collected the three Spirit Balls to become the Thunder Dragon; Whim Transformation is used to transform the two into the Bear Man
– This could be a useful option depending on the player’s preference, but Okunari believes that it could also create some amusing conflicts between the two players, should one rather not change their transformation
– “Whimsical Transformation” was difficult to name
– Was originally going to be called “Random Transformation”
– Director Matsuoka wasn’t satisfied with the name
– List of other names include: Dokidoki Transformation, Dice Transformation, Gamble Transformation
– Okunari definitely thought that local play should be added
