Yoshi’s Crafted World dev Good-Feel teases new Switch game
Posted on 2 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Switch, Videos | 0 comments
Good-Feel, the developer of several Nintendo titles including Wario Land: Shake It!, Kirby’s Epic Yarn, Yoshi’s Woolly World, and Yoshi’s Crafted World, came out with its first self-published game Monkey Barrels last year. The studio is now working on its next project that’s been teased for Switch.
Good-Feel president Etsunobu Ebisu spoke vaguely about the upcoming game in this week’s issue of Famitsu. It’s an action game, but that’s only what’s been confirmed at the moment in terms of gameplay.
As part of the Famitsu interview, we’re able to get a look at storyboards and concept art, which you can see above. Ebisu mentioned that the Japanese setting stems from Good-Feel’s location in Japan and how the company understands what makes Japanese people laugh. At the same time though, he “has a feeling gamers outside of Japan will like it too…”

Yoshi’s Crafted World dev explains how the game came to be and how Switch influenced the project
Posted on 3 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
After making Yoshi’s Woolly World on Wii U (and eventually 3DS), Good Feel continued with the IP to produce Yoshi’s Crafted World on Switch. Members of the development team spoke about the project in-depth in this month’s issue of Nintendo Dream.
According to director Masahiro Yamamoto, talks with Nintendo began before Switch launched. It was actually Nintendo who asked Good Feel is the company wanted to make another Yoshi game as opposed to the other way around. Also, due to Switch’s nature of playing with others and a home console that can be taken on the go, that acted as a major point of influence and led to the idea of having two sides to the different stages.
