One of the more unique entries in the Monkey Ball franchise was Super Monkey Ball Adventure. Rather than the arcade puzzle platforming the series is largely known for, the GameCube title focused on story and navigating the 3D world. It was also made by Traveller’s Tales rather than SEGA / Amusement Vision.
15 years after its release, director Paul Gardner has now reflected on Super Monkey Ball Adventure in an interview with Retro Gamer. Speaking with the magazine about the game’s reception, he said:
A short while ago, publisher Justdan International along with developers Pupuya Games and SimonCreative uploaded a second trailer for Little Witch Nobeta that offers up another look at the project’s development.
In case you missed our previous coverage, here’s some information about the title:
A little while back, Moonana opened a Kickstarter campaign for Keylocker, a cyberpunk turn-based action game. It turned out to be a huge success as the team smashed its funding goal with close to $60,000 raised. Additionally, a Switch version was secured after hitting a stretch goal.
Keylocker has players exploring the story of a BOBO, a singer and songwriter who “will serenade her rebellion against the vicious authorities by banding together with the Jukebot drummer, Rocket, to shatter the strings of fate and sing the melody of freedom.” Expect to “battle the authorities, unlock the secrets of the planet, play on your own bands’ concerts and hack into the network to bring an end to this corrupt system, for better or worse.” The project is said to take inspiration from the Mario & Luigi series and Chrono Trigger.
