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.
