He said:

“I love the Wii U. I think it is a great console. Yes, bringing Mutant Mudds Deluxe to the Wii U has been a lot of fun. Playing it on the GamePad and TV is a really fun and different experience. We will definitely be developing more Wii U games in the future.”

A Kickstarter for a project titled “Anima: Gate of Memories” began at the very end of November. The campaign just came to an end today, and raised well over the $90,000 goal.

Anima: Gate of Memories was originally intended for the PC and Mac, but it’ll also be heading to the Wii U eShop.

The game features an action battle system with customization elements. Different skills can be applied, each of which brings its own visual flair to the characters. There will be quick-time events, full 3D visuals, and an orchestrated soundtrack.

Two prototype videos can be found above.

Kirk’s comments in full:

“We have experienced the same challenges that are presented on any new platform or device. Nintendo’s support has been excellent, we really could not have asked for more support from them. Overall, it has been an extremely positive experience and I think the doors are wide open for other small studios to bring games to the Wii U. This is an amazing development for Nintendo; huge, positive changes have been made since the days of WiiWare.”

Believe it or not, Mutant Mudds Deluxe will be Renegade Kid’s first console title. The studio has developed plenty of content for the 3DS/DS, but this will be its debut experience with a Nintendo home system.

Speaking with Nintendo Force, Renegade Kid co-founder Jools Watsham explained the decision to bring Mutant Mudds Deluxe to Wii U:

“The thought of playing Mutant Mudds on an HDTV is a very exciting one for me. I have always been a huge fan of handheld gaming, but bringing the Mudds experience to the living room feels very grand. With the fact that Nintendo has been easy and awesome to work with in regards to the 3DS eShop, I knew that bringing Mutant Mudds to the Wii U eShop would be equally pleasurable.

“How accessible the hardware manufacturers make their digital outlets is a big deal for small developers, and Nintendo has proven that they understand that. Developing games is difficult enough without having to worry about the ‘shop’ you wish to sell it in.”

Watsham additionally touched on the new ghost levels in the game. He doesn’t have a concrete idea as to how the idea was born, but Super Mario World’s Ghost Houses may have provided some unconscious inspiration.

“My brain is full of Nintendo thoughts, and I can’t help but be inspired by the amazing games of Nintendo’s past. On a subconscious level the Ghost Houses from Super Mario World must have crept into my mind and spoke to me. I do not have any other explanation for why there are now ghosts in the game! Well, apart from the fact that ghosts are cool and add a nice sense of mystery and mischief.”
