Goodbye Galaxy talks a bit about its 3DS eShop game, not planning Wii U development
Goodbye Galaxy Games, the developer behind the DSiWare titles Flipper, Mace Mathician, and Color Commando, is hard at work in its first 3DS eShop game. Circle Entertainment will publish the project, which goes by the name “Tappingo”. Designer Hugo Smits told Nintendo Life that Tappingo is “a real puzzle game” similar to that of Picross.
Future games from Goodbye Galaxy will likely remain on the 3DS. Smits’ love for handhelds means Wii U releases aren’t being considered currently.
That being said, Smits does have positive thoughts when it comes to the Wii U:
From an indie perspective it looks really good. Unity support will really make it easier. I think Nintendo made some really smart moves there.
From a gamer perspective; I’m not really sold yet on the system. I’m still waiting for that one special game that will keep me hooked for weeks.
For now, I cannot wait to enjoy Donkey Kong on my 3DS XL!
As for development; I don’t think it will happen, I just love the handhelds and I’m probably going to stick with 3DS development. And honestly I think this is a good thing. With Wii U really opening up for indies with Unity, I expect a lot of indie projects going there.
So I think it’s good that a few studios will keep putting out quality and exclusive 3DS content for gamers to enjoy.
