Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, News, Wii U eShop | 1 Comment
NG.DEV.TEAM is now an official, licensed Nintendo developer. The company’s first order of business? Bringing Gunlord to Wii U and 3DS.
Gunlord was actually released on the Neo Geo and Dremacast. Now the team will be looking to take advantage of the features provided on Nintendo’s systems.
Here’s the official game overview:
Gunlord is a “eurostyle platformer” with emphasis on exploring huge worlds and blasting off enemies. This game features 10 stages of exciting 2D game play with over 45 unique enemy types. Blast yourself through giant landscapes, explore caverns and reveal tons of secrets!!
Gunlord will feature an increased field of view – 400×240 – on 3DS and a 16:9 display on Wii U. The 3DS version will feature stereoscopic 3D visuals while the Wii U release will incorporate off-TV play and an optional retro style TV scan line effect. Both will contain reworked difficulty, an easy difficulty level, reworked controls, and an auto mapping function on the touchscreen/GamePad.
NG.DEV.TEAM has taken to Indiegogo to help fund development on the Wii U and 3DS. The company’s campaign has a 50.000€ goal. Remember, unlike Kickstarter, the team will receive all funds even if the target isn’t met.
