Thanks to an interview published by 4Gamer a few days ago, it was revealed that Rodea: The Sky Soldier is still in development. We now have some direct quotes that may make the game’s development status even clearer.

First, 4Gamer shared concern for the game since nothing has been mentioned since its announcement in 2011.

To this, Kadokawa’s Yoshimi Yasuda expressed that everyone in the media has been asking about Rodea, but that he hasn’t heard much himself. But in concern over it being forgotten, he accepts to talk about it for a little bit. Yasuda then expressed that when it was initially announced for both the 3DS and Wii, the project was originally in development just for Wii.

Update: Added in more details.

– Still coming to Wii as well
– Hasn’t been mentioned because the media lost interest
– Was originally planned for Wii only, so the controls didn’t feel right on 3DS
– Team decided to move in the direction of making a control style for 3DS
– They want the player to really have tight controls and feel the flying elements of the game with each button push
– The company wants to make a game that is going to be really enjoyed in full 360 degrees, so the producer is taking his time with the game
– 3DS version is in a “plus alpha” state
– President hopes fans are looking forward to the game
– More details in the near future

Rodea: The Sky Soldier is one of those games that had seemingly become vaporeware. Originally announced in 2011, the game has more or less been missing in action since.

Thankfully, we now have a confirmation that the game hasn’t been cancelled. Japanese publisher Kadokawa Games assured gamers in a new interview with 4Gamer that the 3DS version is still on the way and is 70% complete. The team had attempted to replicate a similar control scheme on 3DS that was planned for Wii, but they weren’t able to get things right initially.

You may remember that, a few months ago, we covered a fan-made initiative that sees Zelda: Skyward Sword’s textures added into Twilight Princess. It looks like things have come quite far since then, as a teaser video has now appeared online. Watch it below:

An official overview from Activision reads:

SpongeBob SquarePants: Plankton’s Robotic Revenge is a third-person, co-op gaming adventure, developed by Behaviour Interactive, which combines exploration, adventure and puzzle-solving.

Fans can choose to play as SpongeBob, Patrick, Squidward, Sandy or Mr. Krabs as they try to locate the hidden keys to the safe before the Krabby Patty formula is lost forever.

SpongeBob SquarePants: Plankton’s Robotic Revenge launches on October 22.
