Death Inc. could come to Wii U
Posted on February 5, 2013 by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop
Death Inc. is yet another Kickstarter project that could make its way to Wii U. Developer Ambient Studios is only working on PC, Mac and Linux versions at present, but it sounds like a release on the Wii U eShop could be possible.
An Ambient spokesperson said the following when asked about a Wii U version:
“A Wii U version would be amazing! First thoughts on this are (bearing in mind I’m at home, so I can’t talk to any of the programmers right now) is that we’re building in Unity. I have no idea whether the engine supports that platform nor the additional work that would be involved in getting it to work. If however, it does and the kickstarter is successful and the game is well received, then I would love to take a look into doing this. It’s a great idea!”
Just what is Death Inc.? It’s a strategy game that has you playing as the Grim Reaper, who is looking to spread the bubonic plague. Ambient is made up of former employees from Media Molecule, Lionhead and Criterion – a nice selection of talent!
Of course, before Ambient Studios can proceed with Death Inc., the indie dev needs to meet its Kickstarter goal. £23,024 has been raised thus far. A £300,000 total needs to be met before March 6.
