Hanakai Studio hopes to develop Prodigy for Wii U

Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 25 Comments

Wii U is one of a number of platforms Hanakai Studio hopes to create its new project Prodigy for. PC is the only confirmed system at present, but the team is developing in Unreal in order to make a multiplatform release possible.

Hanakai’s Kickstarter for Prodigy states:

Beside PC/Windows, we hope to develop Prodigy for Mac, Linux, PS3, xBox360, PS4, xBoxOne and WiiU. Our current focus is on PC, but we are developing with Unreal 4 to make it possible to port to other platforms in the future.

Prodigy sounds neat, as the RPG combines figurines with video games. It’d be interesting if the game could take advantage of Wii U’s NFC features somehow…

You can check out Prodigy on Kickstarter here.
