Construct 2 support on the way to Wii U
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 1 Comment
Scirra’s HTML game creation tool Construct 2 is in the pipeline for Wii U, the company has announced. The tech works in conjunction with Nintendo Web Framework so that new and existing titles can be ported over to the system.
Scirra hopes to make Construct 2’s initial release on Wii U available “soon”. “Engineering work is currently being done to make sure everything is running smoothly,” today’s announcement states.
In order to take advantage of Construct 2’s Wii U support, developers will need to become an authorized Nintendo developer. A Construct 2 license will also be required to export games to the console.
