Arkedo to be disbanded

Posted on 12 years ago by (@NE_Brian) in DS, News | 0 comments

Hell Yeah! Wrath of a Dead Rabbit and Big Bang Mini developer Arkedo is no longer the studio it once was. The company is moving away from games due to a lack of funds. On the bright side, Arkedo decided to “disband the team when there still was enough money to get good conditions for everyone”.

Writing about the new direction for Arkedo, co-founder Aurelien Regard said:

“It has been decided to disband the team when there still was enough money to get good conditions for everyone, rather than replace permanent positions with interns and a bad atmosphere. As in any human matter, it is important to know when to stop, to get a clean situation. It is precisely because we did this at this time that everyone from Arkedo is still having a good time together, even after it’s officially over.”

Arkedo still has “two small games” that have yet to be released. These are due out “soon.”

Gaijin Games was a staunch supporter of the Wii– and Nintendo in general– over the last generation, but believe it or not they had initially planned on skipping the Wii U with their upcoming game Runner2: Future Legend of Rhythm Alien. The following comes from an interview with NES:


Once we started seeing what the Wii U had to offer, being Nintendo developers, we started to get excited. Since we’d self-published with Nintendo before with lilt line, we were confident that we could handle it with Runner2, and made the decision to go in that direction for the Wii U version.

– Either Alex Neuse or Mike Roush; it isn’t clarified


They weren’t always completely happy with the system, however, and they say that if they had to complain about anything it would be the way Nintendo does online. They say it “isn’t as robust as Sony or Microsoft’s”, but note that it’s “WAY better than the Wii” and in the end it’s easy enough to work with once you get the hang of it.
