New game from Gunman Clive dev coming to the 3DS eShop, inspired by early Zeldas
Bertil Hörberg’s next game is in development for the 3DS eShop, which shouldn’t be much of a surprise based on Gunman Clive’s success.
Although it’s “very early in development and a lot of the design isn’t finalized”, Hörberg has revealed that the project is “very heavily inspired by the early Zelda games.” The title features a top-down perspective with 3D visuals.
Hörberg told Siliconera:
It’s still very early in development and a lot of the design isn’t finalized, but it’s very heavily inspired by the early Zelda games; it uses a topdown perspective with 3D graphics and it’s for the 3DS. The artstyle is fairly different from the new Zelda but has some influences from [A Link to the Past] as well, so yes I think comparisons will certainly be made [to A Link to the Past 2].
I think most players realize that my resources are rather more limited though and I wouldn’t presume to be in direct competition with Nintendo. I just hope people will be up for a bit more old-school action adventure gameplay regardless.
