DotEmu hasn’t shown the hero design in Wonder Boy: The Dragons Trap – until today. The company gave fans a first look at the character, including the reveal of a playable Wonder Girl.
Here’s a new trailer:
DotEmu added in a new blog post:
“Over the years we’ve seen many different versions of Wonder Boy, depending on the specific game or console. Even the concept art had radically different characters. With such a diverse foundation to build from, it was on me to decide which direction to move in for this latest contribution to the Wonder Boy saga.
I remember as a kid, just looking at those tiny little pixels on my TV made my imagination run wild. So the obvious design choice was to start with the material I’d spent countless hours enjoying. I began with the original sprites from the Master System, aiming for a 21st-century reinterpretation.
